Cahokia Rice Reviews

We love this rice. Delicious and nutritious a real winner!

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.

Love the texture and taste great!

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 never did like brown rice until i tasted this one.

This is a great go to rice for every day use.

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!!

Enjoy the flavor and does not spike blood sugar very high

it's a winner! Great texture, taste, and love the low-glycemic, high protein aspect!

Superb quality!

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.

As I am used to Asian rice varieties, I wasn’t that happy with Cahokia brown rice. I am quite sure many others will like this rice but not for me. Also took a while to get it cooked to get the correct consistency.

Husband a diabetic. This rice is a much better choice for him. Great taste, healthy choice, quick delivery. Love it!

Great rice, good taste, quality product.

This product is delicious, healthful and grown with integrity.

My four year old daughter loves rice so I was glad to find an option with more protein (bonus that it’s grown in our home state of IL!!) When I made this for dinner she didn’t notice a difference and ate her usual large portion. We all thought it was delicious and are glad to know it has the benefit of more protein!

This is absolutely the BEST rice / brown rice on the market. I have bought the small bags before but this time went with the 25 lb. bag. It will last for so long. I wonder why anyone would go to any store and buy processed white rice when this is available. Recipe tip: I take my "go to" homemade Mac & 3 Cheese recipe and substitute this brown rice (cooked) for the macaroni. Wow - knock your socks off. Super nutritious, healthy, no-meat alternative, and taste great - what more could you ask for?? And for those of us (including me) who are now senior citizens, this is so easy to digest and so healthy for you. BUY SOME - you will NOT be disappointed !!

I bought the white and brown rice and have to say that they are both excellent. Both types cook up fluffy and tender in a conventional rice cooker, and taste wonderful. I just wish I could by them locally (southern California)!

I bought this for my son who goes crazy if he has simple carbohydrates with no complex carbs or protein. He loves rice and noodles so this sounds like it might work. The only thing I have used it for is Rice pudding and I love it hot. The rice seems to be sort of crunchy when eating it cold. I haven’t decided whether that is a deal breaker or not. (If there is a way to keep it creamy cold, let me know.). Also, I have freeze dried rice pudding and this rice doesn’t get mushy like some others.
