Howdy All,

I've been thinking that I would like to increase my stock of rice. So, I took a trip to my local Sam's club to see what there was to see. There were all kinds of different rice in probably 20 lb bags ranging from 15 to 25 dollars or so. There were also large boxes of minute rice for lots less.

Here goes the questions. First, is minute rice a good choice for long term storage? The plan is to repackage whatever I get into 2 liter pop bottles. I currently just use basic brown rice that I cook in a rice steamer. I saw rice I've never heard of before. Do they cook differently? Taste different? Have different nutritional value? Could you all help me out please? I'm not terribly concerned with the cost, just how well it will store.

Thanks,
LW
