Throughout the developing world, in areas of food scarcity, rice is a common food that nearly everyone is familiar with and would readily accept. Trying to feed people, especially children and the elderly, food that they are not used to would be difficult and perhaps even cause disgestive distress. In addition, brown rice is very nutritious and full of protein, and is usually cheap and available.
