    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.
    Why on the ratios? The difference between the 2 nutritionally is practically insignificant.

    I think hemean power of ratios for less blood sugar spike
    All carbs will cause a spike in blood sugar.

    Has anyone actually ever died from mercury poisoning from the odd tin of tuna?

    Brown rice and white rice are so similar that it doesn't matter which. It's junk food with little nutrition other than carb calories.

    Do you ever look at nutritional profiles of the things you post?

    At any rate, the difference is pretty negligible...I personally prefer brown rice because it actually tastes like something...also, that seems like a pretty large serving of rice...what else are you eating with it...that will obviously alter the nutritional profile.

    Was planning on eating it alone with maybe butter but mayo end soysauce.

    Are you Hawaiian? I love rice with mayo and soy sauce.

    I eat rice plain sometimes, especially when it's mixed with toasted vermicelli. I also eat it with yogurt when there is a lot of rice left, especially nice for breakfast. I love how versatile it is, I can basically mix it with anything sweet or savory. We eat rice often, so we always have leftovers. 2 days ago I just used some plain cooked rice and mixed in some canned tuna, sun-dried tomatoes packed in olive oil, a bit of hot sauce, pressed garlic, salt and pepper, tarragon and capers. Took less than a couple of minutes to make and left me full for the day. I don't understand the hate for rice, especially white rice. It's a staple in many generally thin cultures and you can throw anything with it to make a meal even if it's just random stuff like I did above, make it as quick or as elaborate as you wish.

    It would be just about the same. Eat the one you like.
    So what your saying is brown + white rice better than white rice?

    Albacore Tuna is not so bad. Marlin is worse.

    Where's the Dave Ramsey quote? "Rice and beans, beans and rice."
