As a small aside, period rices were more likely to be short or medium grain
rice.

Check health food stores, I've often found brown short grain rice there down 
this way. AND my favorite.... brown basmati... which of course I shouldn't 
really eat at this point of Atkins.... but really, once you smell it cooked, who 
can resist? It has the flavor I keep reading regular brown rice should have I 
think.... I've also seen a brown short grain glutenous rice and used it in 
home made sushi...
