White Rice can last for 8-10 years!. and brown rice around 6 months!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

First, there is no rice shortage!. People are stupid and are hoarding rice!. There is currently a surplus of rice in the U!.S!.

But, to answer your question: uncooked white rice will keep at room temperature almost indefinitely if bugs are kept out of it!. Brown rice is a different story entirely, because the oil in the bran will go rancid!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Just don't buy too much and read the expiration date, that's why its there!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

years, keep it in a cool dry placeWww@FoodAQ@Com
