Rice

Would it be more healthier to eat 4 servings of just white rice only or two servings of brown rice in 2 servings of white rice together? With a Lil butter and some soy sauce.

I think it would be healthier to eat 1 serving of either white or brown rice with some meat/fish or other protein and lots of veggies.21

It's a pretty even exchange as far as macros/calories go with a couple gs of fiber being the differential between white and brown (more micronutrition in the brown, however). A mix of both would be a cool texture.
That said, why eat 3 cups of rice only in one shot?1 -
It would be just about the same. Eat the one you like.1

The ratio of brown to white rice should be 8:2, the soy should be no more than 50ml but no less than 25ml. Eat outside of this and you will eliminate your deficit.
But seriously, eat whichever you prefer. Weigh it & track it of course.8 -
If it's real brown rice and not vaguely dyed white rice, it will go into your system slower and may help you avoid the hunger spike some people get an hour or so after eating heavy carbs. But if you eat it with protein, even that doesn't matter. Calories are calories. Log it.1

On tight budget. Didn't want to eat white rice only because its be said that it increases the chance to get diabetes.
Um ok. I don't know where you get your information from.3 -
Rice does not cause diabetes.7

everyone in Asia, South America and India would be diabetic if white rice caused diabetes.

Organic brown rice contains fiber. White rice does not. That's the main difference. No single food in moderate portions causes diabetes. But excessive portions of foods with a high glycemic index, especially when eaten at every meal, can over time start screwing up your blood sugar. If you do just one portion of brown rice with some lean protein and lots of low-glycemic veggies, you'll be fine.2

Do you have any frozen veggies in your freezer? Tuna in the pantry? If not, look out for them on sale and keep things like that on hand so you don't have to just eat rice.2 -
When I am on a tight budget, I combine canned black beans with some salsa and a little cumin and put it on brown rice.2

Eating on a budget doesn't mean you can only eat rice. And while rice is fine in moderation you're going to be seriously nutrient-deficient if that's all you eat. Beans and rice is cheap and a good staple to have on hand, but again, moderation. There are other threads here about eating on a budget. For starters, many folks buy coffee or snacks daily at work, or they eat a lot of fast food. Those things can "eat" a lot of your small budget in a hurry.

No it doesn't increase your chance of diabetes and there isn't much difference between white and brown rice so each whichever one you prefer0

Have to limit tuna b/c mercury
Enjoy your rice, then.3 -
Take 1 cup white rice and 1 cup brown rice.
Mix well, form into a patty, and make a rice cake.
Add 1 slice yellow cake and put between two slices of whole wheat bread.
Eat your cake-rice cake sandwich.6 -

I was going to mention blending cooked rice (white, of course) adding sugar and butter and make a frosting to spread between 2 cake slices.5 -

I do but the problm is that there is 5servings in a single bag and sadly 5 servings dont fill me up alone and it like 1:44 per bag and thats getting up there for me
Brown rice contains fiber so it will fill you up more than white rice.
If you can only afford white rice that's okay, but I find white carbs just make me hungrier. Beans are a good source of carbs plus protein and they fill you up better. You can use them as a carb side or as a protein. Potatoes also have a high satiety value even tho they are a white carb. Combining beans and rice or beans and potatoes should fill you up.2 -
I looked this up once. Basically as others said, your choice:
