I bought some sushi rice ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EGZ97Y/ref=s9_simh_gw_p325_d0_g325_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=076GWBM3H682EPW4A25C&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938811&pf_rd_i=507846 ) and it's 190 calories for an uncooked 1/4 cup. That seems like A LOT.

One of my sushi rolls uses about a cup of cooked rice so that one roll with rice alone is 380 calories. Am I crazy or is this a lot?

    One cup of regular long grain white rice is 200 calories I think. I know little sushie rolls are not that high in calories from what I've seen but it sounds like maybe it depends on the portion size. Is there another type of rice you could maybe use?
