I am not a fan of brown rice because I can’t never cook it right but this rice cooks so good in the microwave and taste so good, you don’t have to fix it up with added ingredients to make it taste good like other rice. It’s good all on its own. So glad I found this company!
I am so happy I found this company, so happy to be eating rice grown in the USA! This rice taste so good and the extra protein is a big plus. From now on this is my rice of choice.
We have always used exclusively Jasmine and Basmati rices in our home, but after sampling the Cahokia white rice, everybody agrees that it is superior in every way. We are stocking up and will be relying on this rice for our Jollof and other staples going forward. Our 7 takes it to school in an insulated container for his lunch almost every day. The added protein is of course a welcome bonus, but we favor this rice for its texture and flavor. It also cooks up great in the microwave, which is a real time-saver on busy weekdays.
We first purchased this rice from a St Louis grocery store while in town for a friend's wedding. Had NO idea that my home state grew rice so bought quite a bit to share with family members at Christmas time. They were stunned too but the best part is that we all love this rice, both the white and brown varieties. I ordered more when I ran out and this is my second order which again will be shared with family. This is excellent quality rice - all of us use it in different meals and preparations and Cahokia rice works for all! I agree with the many other comments here that it is the complete package: excellent quality, texture and taste, high protein, etc. Thank you for the wonderful product.

I sought out Cahokia Brown Rice for the higher protein and lower glycemic index. I enjoy it for the great texture and flavor. The fiber and natural nutrition are an added plus.
I rinsed and soaked 2 cups of rice and soaked it for 10 minutes. I added the rice, two cups of water and a teaspoon of low sodium Better Than Bullion. I cooked it for 20 minutes on high pressure and did a Natural Release. This is literally the best rice I have ever had. The texture and flavor and the fact that it’s high protein makes it a winner. I am buying more and you should too.
First found this rice a few years ago on the list of Down at the Farm (IL) weekly order list. I've never found any other rice to equal it. Most recently ordered three bags EACH of both the white and brown varieties--ALWAYS want it in my pantry! What has addicted me to it? Truly LONG grain rice; always cooks perfectly; always whole kernels; only rinse it before cooking out of habit, but at most find all but imperceptible dust on it; and most importantly, organic with beautiful flavor.
This rice tastes great, has right consistency, can be eaten plain and goes good with any recipe. It’s a family favorite. We have athletes in our house that want a low glycemic rice and this one fits the bill and tastes good too.
I was diagnosed a year ago with diabetes and have been on a mission to find healthier alternatives while retaining food I like. I came across Cahokia while researching the gylcemic index and load of various rices. This rice was bred to be healthier in terms of impact on insulin and sugar spikes and it claimed to be very similar in all ways to regular white or brown rice. Their claim panned out accurately. My wife is Asian and we eat a lot of rice (which I had to curtail dramatically due to its impact on sugar spikes). Now I can afford to eat a little more and neither of us notice a difference in the taste or any other characteristics except perhaps it is a bit fluffier (which we like). Strongly recommend Cahokia rice to anyone watching their sugar and interested in an alternative to regular white or brown rice. I think anyone would enjoy it, but it is a bit more expensive.
This product cooks per instructions, is economical & orders are quickly shipped! Their customer service is on top of things (lost order thru shipping) & was replaced immediately without question. They have become my supplier for rice products!
When you can get a white rice that has more protein than any other white rice on the market that is a real find. However, not only does Cahokia White Rice have great protein, it taste even better than all the other white rice on the market. There is a fullness to this rice. It cooks great, please follow the directions, and turns out great every time. To me, it has a pleasant flavor, where as most white rice is just plain. I don't eat as much of the Cahokia White Rice as I do the Cahokia Brown Rice because the Brown Rice fits my life style. However, when I do have the white rice it is exceptional and excellent. I highly recommend it.
I’m beyond pleased with this lovely rice. Flavor is great. Not finicky to cook so it’s versatile. I’ve made serving after serving in the microwave and it’s an exceptional performer.
This is the second time I ordered six 2-pound bags. I like the free shipping and the size of the bags. No problems with ordering or delivery. This brown rice cooks well every time and is delicious and nutritious (high protein rice). I am a very satisfied customer. Thank you!
Glad to have purchased both varieties of this rice. I pre-soak all my brown rice before cooking to get rid of anti-nutrients, and this rice comes out perfectly. My whole family enjoys it, as well as the white rice too. Nice to have extra protein from a whole grain, and a white rice!!

We love the special taste of your rice and we especially love that it is grown in nearby ILLINOIS! Thank you.
I first came across this rice at a food expo in Springfield. I have used it ever since. My go to rice. Love the taste and the extra protein.
