About ENRICHED EXTRA LONG GRAIN RICE
Meijer Enriched Extra Long Grain Rice is a dry pantry rice product sold under the Meijer private-label brand from Meijer, Inc., the Midwest supercenter chain headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Classified in the Rice category, this product consists of long grain white rice that has been enriched with vitamins and minerals post-milling to compensate for nutrients lost during the refining process.
The ingredient list contains long grain rice as the primary component, with iron added as ferric orthophosphate and B vitamins added as niacin, thiamine (thiamine mononitrate), and folic acid. Extra long grain refers to a rice grain size classification where the length-to-width ratio is notably high, producing a characteristic separation of individual grains after cooking. This variety is commonly used in American-style side dishes, pilafs, and mixed rice preparations.
At 356 calories per 100 grams (dry weight), this is a calorie-dense dry grain staple. Carbohydrates dominate at 77.78 grams per 100 grams, protein is 6.67 grams, fat is zero, and fiber is zero — consistent with milled white rice, which has had the bran and germ layers removed. This product is naturally gluten-free, vegan, and free from common allergens (no wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, nuts, or sesame). It is appropriate for a wide range of dietary restrictions. The enrichment coating is water-soluble; rinsing the rice before cooking removes a portion of the added vitamins and iron.
