Hi! Technically rice is not a grain, but is often mislabeled as one. Rice is Rice! Blue Buffalo (grain-free) is the best holistic that we've tried on the market, for dogs & cats!

That is the wrong description for ingredients, check one of the question/answers and the correct ingredients are listed. Question has already been asked and answered.

The ingredients are just brown rice and water and don't indicate any allergen alerts to dairy or egg so I think you are good to go. I would call the manufacturer to be sure.

Yes, brown rice flour is a naturally gluten free flour. Even if you find wheat that is organic and sprouted, research has shown most do not react to the gluten because it is not like mass processed wheat flour. Hope this helps!

Yes. Ingredients, from package: "Enzymatically processed rice protein from certified organic, whole grain, sprouted brown rice".I don't know why the information on Amazon doesn't mention it's brown rice - probably an oversight (or intentional omissions due to thinking that consumers wouldn't be interested) from whoever manages the sales process.

No. From what I have come to understand is that this is the natural color. This is an ancient grain that has been known to be this color. In fact, ancient Asian chefs considered this rice to be suitable only for royalty!

This is a very good question. I do not know the answer. I have just checked a package of whole grain brown rice and there is no mention of Vitamin E there either. Sorry I can't be of more help. If you find out the answer I would appreciate your sharing it with me.

No. The ingredients are "Organic Brown Rice, Water". That's it. Nothing else. And it is WONDERFUL stuff!

Nishiki Premium Rice comes in both white and brown. The plain premium rice doesn't mention "Brown" but the other clearly states "Brown Premium Rice". I'm not sure why the Nishiki order you made came in white, when you clearly wanted Brown rice. I looked at the supplier I order my rice from and the rice is clearly marked. I believe Brown rice is more nutritious than white rice. If the white rice bothers you that much, I would return it for a bag of brown. Many vendors on Amazon make returns/exchanges simple/easy. Good luck... (The white rice is flavorful, maybe this one bag won't ruin your decision to try Nishiki white rice). Nishiki Premium Rice comes in both white and brown.

I chose this protein powder specifically because it did not contain any sweetners or flavors. It is plain brown rice protein powder.

The individual bags have a "use by" date of March, 27, 2015....no sugar, no salt ...only ingredient is puffed whole grain Brown Rice.....

Brown rice, and pululan(a extra cellular polysaccharide) whatever that is?? That's all it says, other than mushrooms.

Indeed it is. BUT...as soon as I typed that answer, it came to mind that rice was one thing I'd never tried. So, went to the pantry, got a small bag from which I took two handsful and put into the thing, pumped the rice it up and down, back and forth, round and round. Never lost a grain! So the correct answer?: Indeed it is.

It's gluten free, by new grains...the company's name who produces them. While rice may be a grain it does not contain gluten, which causes an allergic reaction in people with celiacs

It does not. Cheryl's reply shows the complete list of ingredients: "Enzymatically processed rice protein from certified organic, whole grain, sprouted brown rice." If you would like to confirm or check the nutritional value breakdown, you can zoom in on the label in the product description page. I've been pleased with this product, as it has no added sweeteners/carbs/"syrup solids"/etc. - it's strictly brown rice protein.

A lot of confusion here among people who do not read labels or do not understand them. It is rice PROTEIN, not rice. No rice carbohydrate. Thus, not only no "added" sugar, no sugar at all, unless you consider ONE GRAM or less to be "glycemic".
