What is in Pure Cream of Rice
The Chocolate ingredient list is short: organic granulated jasmine rice, goMCT (medium-chain triglycerides on acacia fibre), cocoa powder, flavours and stevia. Strawberries and Cream has the same base without the cocoa. Nutrition varies a little by flavour: Chocolate lists 620 kJ and 30.1 g of carbohydrate per serve, while Strawberries and Cream lists 600 kJ and 30 g.
Rice is the first and main ingredient, which is why each serve is high in carbohydrate but low in fat (1.4 g) and sugars (0.9 g). The goMCT adds a small amount of fat, and Rapid promotes it for steady energy; that is the brand's claim. The pack front says vegan, no artificial sweeteners, no added gluten, no added dairy and no artificial colours.
Why a low-fat rice cereal around training? Sports Dietitians Australia (SDA) says a pre-event meal is typically eaten 2 to 4 hours before competition, should be rich in carbohydrate and low in fat, and that a reduced fibre intake can help prevent bloating and stomach discomfort. Low-fat creamed rice is one of the pre-event options SDA lists. Pure Cream of Rice fits that pattern, with its carbohydrate coming mostly from rice and only small amounts of fat and sugar.
Who it suits
- Lifters and gym-goers who want an easy carb meal a few hours before training, or after it
- Athletes who find heavier or high-fibre breakfasts sit badly before exercise
- People trying to eat more carbohydrate while bulking: Rapid pitches it for bulking and recovery
- Plant-based eaters, since the pack is labelled vegan
- Busy mornings, because you can make it with water in the microwave
Who should check first
- Coeliac disease or gluten sensitivity: the pack says no added gluten and Rapid's website calls it gluten-free, but the label also says it is made in a facility that processes gluten. Factor in that cross-contact risk and ask Rapid or your dietitian if you are unsure.
- Food allergies: the facility also processes milk, egg, soybean, seeds and tree nuts. If you have a peanut allergy, read the Peanut Butter flavour label before buying.
- Diabetes or blood glucose management: each serve has about 30 g of carbohydrate, so talk to your doctor or an Accredited Practising Dietitian about how it fits your plan.
- Low-carb or keto eating: this is a high-carbohydrate food, so it will not suit those plans.
How to use Pure Cream of Rice
Rapid's directions: mix one scoop (40 g) with hot water or milk and stir until smooth, adding more liquid for a thinner texture. You can also make it with water in the microwave, or blend it cold into a shake when you are on the go. Store the bag in a cool, dry place below 25 degrees Celsius.
Timing is up to you. Rapid suggests it before or after workouts, or as a quick meal any time. SDA's general guidance is to eat a pre-event meal 2 to 4 hours before, or a lighter snack 1 to 2 hours before if you start very early.
Rapid also suggests stirring in protein powder for a more complete meal. A scoop of whey or plant protein turns it into a carb and protein bowl. To work out your daily target, read how much protein you need per day.
How it compares
- Cyborg Sport Glycoject HBCD: a single-ingredient carbohydrate powder (highly branched cyclic dextrin from waxy corn starch) that you drink, rather than a bowl you eat.
- Mass Gainer by CBUM: a high-calorie shake that combines carbohydrate with whey and casein protein, so it contains milk, unlike the vegan-labelled Cream of Rice.
- Rapid Vegan Plant Protein: from the same brand, a plant protein powder you can stir into your bowl for a dairy-free carb and protein meal.
