Love/hate relationship with brown rice

I like to eat healthy and keep out the 'white' foods like white bread and white rice. But I just cannot stand eating brown rice. I feel like I am eating cardboard and there is no flavor to it no matter how much chicken brother I put in it. I do however looove my Jasmine and Basmati rice. I found that I can have both of my favorites. Lundberg makes this Jasmine brown rice and Basmati brown rice. The bags that I bought are both organic, gluten free and GMO free. So I cooked it up one night with some homemade, salt free chicken stock and while it did have a bite to it (it was fully cooked), I could actually stand to eat a full serving. Of course, it's an acquired taste but it made me feel satisfied and I was able to get my carbs in with rice without the guilt.
