Its not rocket science (tho sometimes it really seems that way :-). Jasmine rice is one of those majorly sugarriffic things that calls my name, trust me. We have made the switch to brown rice and now I cant eat white rice without feeling like I am eating twinkies. I send you positive thoughts and much success! Laurel:

I was alway as healthy as a horse until I hit menopause. I am trying to educate myself.......quickly. After eating a fine dinner of baked Tilapia and my favorite Jasmine rice (feeling quite proud of myself) I decided I had better check to see how healthy my choice was. Wish I would have found your site BEFORE I slurped up the rice. Thank you for your very informative site. I am pre-diabetic and am completely ignorant about nutrition.

I have more of a salt tooth :-) I prefer chips over sweets any day.. they are both just as bad. Good luck to you all! JSC: This is really hard, I think especially at the beginning!

Glad you like them. It is true that its not fun to have it hanging over BUT you are so right (and this is the way I am choosing to look at this) its all about eating great food in the end anyways! Shirley: Your mom's soups sound delish! Glad you liked this, I know its different than the usual Japanese thing and who am I to suggest something different.. but .. hey. its not a law that onigiri have to be ONLY white rice :-) Your post of sticky rice is torture tho!

I always enjoy your 'scientific' posts, you are a good teacher!
