Good to know

  • Log rice in the same state you measured it. A cup of dry long-grain white rice (185 g) has about 675 calories and makes several cups once cooked.
  • In USDA’s data, enriched and unenriched cooked white rice have the same calories and macros. Enrichment adds vitamins and minerals.
  • Fried rice and rice cooked with oil or butter are different foods. Add the fat as its own entry.
