I was fortunate to discover them in 2015. I managed a produce store and brought the product in. I have been with them since. This is a great rice, try it!
I have ordered the brown rice and love it. Fast service when I have ordered. I would highly recommend trying!
Your company I thought was different but the same poor customer service.
You asked me for a customer review and I have waited for over 6 weeks and after sending email 2 times explaining what happened you gave me 25 lbs of white rice. I haven’t opened it because I need brown rice because of my diagnosis by my holistic health professional.
I believe I have ordered 3/4 times for the same exact 25 lbs f brown rice..
I have not heard from you or anyone in your company to help in addressing this minor issue. Just swap them out. My. Invoice state’s BROWN RICE SO I KNOW I DIDNT MAKE THE ERROR .
You guys send out all these emails and I guess you are full of **** in knowing how your customers feels. I will give it away and buy somewhere else your not the only company that sells brown rice.. I try to buy from family owned businesses but I got burned once again due to no one cares about rather customer.

The rice was delivered quickly and we love it. Not only is it delicious and hearty, it didn't cause my husbands sugar to spike.
We will only be using this rice from now on.
I can't tell you how much we love your Cahokia rice! My husband is a type 2 diabetic so finding a white rice he can eat without it affecting his blood sugar is such a blessing. The flavor is unbelievable and it cooks up so nice in my rice cooker. We are fans for life !!
Shipment got here quickly and was packaged well. Rice was good. Will purchase from this company again.
We enjoy to eat the Cahokia brown rice deliciously.However,some unpolished rices are chewy and umcomfortable to eat.
I wish the polishing process is a bit more delicate.
We tried this rice using our pilaf recipe. It was very creamy with a slightly nutty flavor.
I lived how the white rice cooked in my rice cooker. It was soft and delicious. I must order some more. I haven’t tried the brown rice yet. I’ll try it tonight.
Thank you for a wonderful product.

This is absolutely the best rice I have ever had! Love that it is locally grown and non-GMO. Give it a try, you will be amazed!
I love your rice! It is delicious, and I need protein, and this rice has higher protein than others. And, I love its made in Illinois by Illinois farmers! I am a customer for life. Fast shipping.
I love this rice and I love that it has a higher protein count! I sent this to my son for his Birthday and because he just joined the Crew Team. He needs all the protein he can- they work out hard! The customer service is so personal and so kind! Love this company!
I am a regular customer of this rice. The rice has high protein and gluten free that is what I like. My husband and I are older folks. We watched our carb intake. My husband loves eating rice. With the high protein and gluten free feature, we will be their customers for life.
When they say low glycemic, they are accurate! I haven’t been able to eat rice for years as I became intolerant to foods with a high glycemic index which affected my sleep and clarity of mind. I was so pleased to be able to eat brown rice again, and one that tastes incredible! Also, the follow through from the owner, Shelly, has been wonderful! So personable, down to earth and kind. Highly recommend this company.
When I received the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes, the hardest part was imagining my life without rice. Growing up in a Latin household, rice was a staple in every meal. I came across Cahokian rice, and it has been a game changer; I can still enjoy my rice. As David from Colorado says, it helps if you cook it, let it cool, and reheat it before eating. The best part is that it has a better taste and quality than any other rice out there. Believe me, this comes from somebody who has been eating rice for over 60 years.
I got the brown rice. cooked easily per directions. Texture and taste was perfect. Enjoyed our meal. A good deal considering it is healthier and tastes good as well.
Make me feel fuller too compared to regular jasmine rice.
No more worry about "sleepy:" after a meal.
I have purchased brown many times. It is the best brown rice I have ever eaten. I have also purchased the white rice and it too is the best.
My grandchildren love the brown rice also.
The best milling quality of any domestic US rice producer I have encountered. Zero broken grains and zero unmilled rice grains and weed seeds. Our previous daily Arkansas long grain rice always requires a careful picking before rinsing as contains a higher proportion of broken grains and weed seeds. This rice is very absorptive and I use at least 1.5 cups liquid per cup of rice and it can handle 2 cups of liquid without turning out mushy soft grains after steaming, although the rest and fluffing are super important to rice serving quality and often ignored by American cooks. It is almost as absorptive as a Calasparra medium grain Paella rice and does make great arroz mexicana and other rice dishes made with stock. The higher protein isn't detectable as a flavor or aroma difference but may contribute to the extra absorptive qualities. I wear a continuous glucose monitor for diabetes and have yet to notice a big change in glycemic index when eating Cahokia rice compared to a typical Arkansas long grain rice but I have no reason to doubt that this rice has extra resistant starch content, especially when cooked with a tablespoon of butter or EVOO added to the pot before steaming and allowed to cool before reheating and serving. Using a chicken stock and added butter really perks up the flavor and texture as well.
It's great to support local business. The white rice cooked up just fine in my electric pressure cooker (Instant Pot). Now to try the brown rice.
