About ENRICHED EXTRA LONG GRAIN RICE
Meijer Enriched Extra Long Grain Rice is one of multiple USDA FDC entries representing the Meijer private-label enriched white long grain rice product line from Meijer, Inc., the Grand Rapids, Michigan-headquartered Midwest supercenter chain. Listed in the Rice category, this dry pantry rice is formulated for general household cooking across a variety of cuisines and preparation methods.
The ingredient declaration lists long grain rice enriched with ferric orthophosphate as the iron source along with niacin, thiamine mononitrate, and folic acid as the B vitamin supplement components. This enrichment follows the FDA's standard of identity for enriched rice, which mandates minimum levels of these micronutrients to compensate for losses incurred during the milling process. Extra long grain rice is characterized by its slender shape and length exceeding 7 millimeters, and it is particularly well-suited to pilafs, rice salads, casseroles, and any preparation where grain integrity and separation are desired after cooking.
At 356 calories per 100 grams, this product provides 80 grams carbohydrates, 6.67 grams protein, and zero fat and fiber per 100 grams dry. As a milled white rice product, fiber is absent due to bran removal. This rice is naturally gluten-free, vegan, and free of all major food allergens including wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, and sesame. No preservatives, artificial colors, or flavor additives are present. The enrichment minerals and vitamins are applied as a surface coating that is soluble in water, so pre-rinsing is not recommended to maintain nutritional value.
