Define “better.”
If you’re looking for long term storage, brown rice is inferior to white rice. It can go rancid after six months to a year. White can keep almost indefinitely given proper storage.
Define better.
In context of this article, better = healthier.
Of course, it might not be healthier if it's been stored too long.
Thanks for the info... I never realized that the brown has a shorter shelf-life than the white.
