Curious n Gluten-free Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I just found out that wild rice isn’t really a grain at all: it’s actually completely separate from brown or white rice and is technically a grass that grows in marshy areas. With that in mind… assuming sprouts are allowed… and other seeds… wouldn’t wild rice be allowed on Whole30? I’m strictly gluten-free/dairy free and low sugar or no sugar regularly, so Whole30 isn’t too different for me (basically just cutting rice, the occasional gluten-free bread and alcohol). So, I’m not trying to skirt the rules here, but I think similarly to how sweet potatoes are allowed, but white potatoes are nightshades and highly inflammatory (and off limits), we should be able to differentiate here. Interested in well-informed responses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted February 1, 2022 Moderators Share Posted February 1, 2022 This has been addressed before, and for Whole30 purposes, all rice is off limits: Incidentally, white potatoes are now allowed: https://whole30.com/new-whole30/.
