About ENRICHED EXTRA LONG GRAIN RICE
Meijer Enriched Extra Long Grain Rice is a packaged dry rice product sold under the Meijer store brand, a private-label offering from Meijer, Inc., the Grand Rapids, Michigan-headquartered Midwest supercenter chain. Listed in the Rice category of the USDA FDC database, this product is a standard enriched white long grain rice for household cooking.
The formulation consists of long grain rice with an applied enrichment coating containing ferric orthophosphate as the iron source and the B vitamins niacin, thiamine mononitrate, and folic acid. This enrichment is mandated under FDA standards of identity for enriched rice and partially restores micronutrients removed during the milling process. Extra long grain rice cooks to a dry, fluffy consistency with individual grains remaining separate after cooking, making it suitable for applications where grain separation is desired, such as pilafs, stir-fries, and rice salads.
The caloric content is 356 calories per 100 grams dry, with carbohydrates at 77.78 grams, protein at 6.67 grams, and fat and fiber both at zero. This nutritional profile is consistent across the multiple Meijer enriched extra long grain rice entries in the USDA database, which represent distinct retail SKU submissions of essentially identical formulations. The product is gluten-free, vegan, allergen-free, and widely suitable across dietary patterns. As with all enriched white rice, the vitamin coating is water-soluble and largely lost if the rice is rinsed before cooking.
