I think I tried to let brown rice into my life but it did not work

Brown rice has a few benefits but I don't know if any of them are worth the taste of brown rice

it's just so depressing to eat

and making it is like, get ready for four meals of this shit

Are there other dietary changes you can make instead to let you eat white rice?

I know it's something a lot of Asian people try to preserve since it's so cultural

no specific dietary restriction is keeping me from eating white rice, it's just an attempted incremental improvement

so I just need to eat better elsewhere

well, salad helps with the fiber gab

yeah salad september will be useful

Have you considered forbidden rice

(This is only a shitpost because it's pretty similar to brown rice, this is a real type of rice)

I have not

You'd better not it's forbidden

I can't stand brown rice as just, like, rice, but I don't find it objectionable in a pilaf or a soup or something

if there's Other Flavors And Textures it's a nice source of variety. if I'm just putting a forkful of rice in my mouth it's bad.

yeah in my experience most "basic" rices (so brown and white, but not as much jasmine or basmati) are incredibly just... none texture none flavor

and then they get cold and the texture becomes horrendous

so they need to have some sort of other flavoring agent cooked with them to really stand alone

white rice is perfectly fine

White rice still has extremely subtle flavor but the texture's a lot better than brown rice imo

And what flavor is there is more appealing.

it's filling and satisfying and a great accompaniment to other flavors

brown rice tastes like sadness

Brown rice takes a LOT of training not to suck

I learned to make a bowl of white rice in about 3 weeks. It took 6 months to make palatable brown rice, 3 years to make it tasty.

apparently there have been instances of the japanese navy getting serious nutrition problems due to unilaterally refusing to eat brown rice when white rice wasn't available

my mom suggests starting by making it with 3/4 white rice 1/4 brown rice until you're fine with that, then upping the ratio in amounts after that

I always wondered if you could cook them together like that

she said that one takes a little longer than the other but it's fine to cook until that ones done

apparently she did this when I was very young and I've always been eating brown rice and did not know it
huh.

her other suggestion is black rice, which looks and tastes completely different so it won't hit your brain as weirdly

I think my main solution is gonna be

white rice

white rice is good
