    Not usually no.  It's carb loaded.

    white rice is healthy but in low amounts. yes asians do eat white rice, but if you see they eat it as a side mostly. rice has lots and lots of carbs. so just eat low amounts

    Yes, but not as good as brown rice.

    It doesn't really matter to me if it is good or not, I love it and I am going to eat it.

    Sure. It's food. It gets a bad rep because it has less fibre and digests quicker than brown rice.....possibly spiking your blood sugar.

    But It's not BAD for you if you eat it in moderation.

    Good source of carbs - the middle eastern and asians eat it like there is going to be no tomorrow - so it certainly isn't wiping out entire populations.
