Upon request. White rice can be enriched by coating the grain with the vitamins and nutrients which are lost after the grain is milled and the husk, bran, and germ removed.

Both are 100% natural rice. The main difference is in the cooking time. Instant Rice is precooked for cooking or rehydration times from 3 to 10 minutes. While traditional, or long cook rice, should be boiled for longer periods of time, depending on the grain type.

Technically not considered a rice variety, wild rice is a seed of a plume-topped aquatic grass and the only grain native to North America. It is primarily found in Minnesota, California and Canada. With an enticing smoky, nutty flavor profile and a characteristic chewy texture, wild rice has long been a favorite of gourmet home chefs and foodies. This seed is often found combined with other types of rice or grains.  

Brown rice and white rice come from the same plant; the difference is in the milling process. While brown rice contains all three parts of the grain (bran, layer and endosperm), white rice is milled until the bran and germ are removed. 
Once harvested, rice grains are sent to the mill where excess moisture is removed using a massive dryer and then cleaned, to separate whole grains from straw and broken grains. Next, the rough rice hulls are shelled to reveal the rice grain and expel the hulls, yielding wholegrain brown rice. If white rice is desired, brown rice is milled by removing the bran, yielding polished white rice.
