I thought I read somewhere that brown rice tend to go rancid whereas white rice keeps longer so perhaps eating white rice is a hold-over from an age with poorer options for storage and distribution. (Edit to add: Probably way up thread

Personally, I don't care what anyone else eats. I like white rice but usually prefer brown.
Remember the rule with grains, If it smells like CRAYONS, its rancid and its time to toss it!
