Riceberry, a crossbreed superfood rice that is grown in Thailand that's in antioxidants and has a disctinctive deep purple color, is the feature ingredient in these rice-based meals from S&P, a restaurant and bakery brand. S&P's organic riceberry-based meals share the many health benefits of the rice product and bring attention to the fact that the rice comes from Thailand—the quick meal packages include cheerful illustrations of farmers, which goes along with the brand's take on "GOOD FOOD, GOOD MOOD."
While some of the preservative-free, microwave-friendly riceberry rice meals are paired with eggplant, pork and green curry, others show the versatility of the ingredient with different meat and vegetable pairings.
Due to the numerous benefits that riceberry rice has, it is set to make its way to North America and appeal to health-conscious consumers as the next must-try super grain.
