Speaking of "odd" grains <G>, I saw something interesting in the natural
foods store the other day...
Sitting on the shelf next to the rices, there was a small cellophane packet
of *black* rice. It was labelled "The Forbidden Rice" and vaguely implied
that in ancient times only the pharaohs were allowed it, blah blah blah...
Has anybody else heard of this? Is this an actual Old World grain product,
or is it a really fancy packaging idea? It didn't look like wild rice; it
*really* looked like a good long-grain rice, like a basmati, but it was
coal-black.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? ;-)
