ods containing SRB with those made only with wheat flour. It was also directed to evaluating the finished product quality and the economic impact of adding SRB to battered and fried foods.

"Food prices are in an upward spiral, driven by the costs of grain, which are at 10-year average highs," said Kody Newland, NutraCea's Senior Vice President of Sales.

This study clearly demonstrates a wide range of benefits -- including the substantial cost advantages -- of adding SRB to widely available food products."
