Cahokia Rice Reviews

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 love the brown rice and I love the added boost of protein!

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.

Good Taste. Little if any effect on Blood Sugar (1/3 cup serving)

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.

The 25 lbs white rice was shipped in a sturdy cardboard box. I use a rice cooker, the rice tastes fresh and clean. And probably due to its low glycemic index, high proteins content, I noticed a feeling of lightness after meal, I also eat less, 1cup instead of 2, and not sleepy at all after lunch. With no hesitation, I would order in bulk this healthy rice again for my family, and recommend it to all rice lovers. Thank you.

Love the rice and the service provided. Highly recommended.

My partner has diabetes so this high protein low glycemic index rice is wonderful for him. I love the taste and not having to be concerned about arsenic contamination. And it’s almost local since I live in a neighboring state!

The best rice……

Having said that we also love the Cahokia white rice as well. Always make extra helpings so that it can be used as fried rice later. Happy Chinese New Year!

This is the BEST rice! The texture is just right. And it’s not too dry and has a light chewiness to it. It has a wonderful flavor and it’s very satisfying. I have been buying both the white and brown rice for a number of years now and I don’t bother with any other rice!

It is a real gift to have such easy access to nutritional Rice. We enjoy being able to directly support farm families. Thank You Cahokia Rice

Took a couple of trial and errors to figure out the water and time for cooking in Instant Pot vs. a rice cooker. Tried the fried rice recipe on the website and I am pleased with the results.

We've been eating Cahokia Rice for many years and would never think of eating any other. Delicious and healthy.

Always perfect rice, every time.

This rice is one of the best rice I have ever eaten! Excellent flavor and the grains stay whole. It comes from a humble and caring company, that writes you a handwritten “thank you” note. I love it!

It’s a yum.. don’t forget to rinse before cooking

Best Brown rice I have eaten and big plus that it is high protein
