The problem with brown rice is, that while it's incredibly healthy, it tastes ordinary. Not horrible, just chewy and dull.

Thinking about it objectively white rice doesn't taste too exciting either. But at least it's soft, fluffy and white. It seems to me that no matter how long you cook brown rice for it still tastes underdone.

There's a reason I've had the same packet of brown rice in my cupboard for almost three years.
