Neutral · Grain fragment

Brewers rice

Also appears on labels as: brewers rice flour

The small broken pieces of rice kernel left over from milling whole rice.

Watched ingredients get highlighted on every product panel you open.

Where it comes from
Rice milling and brewing supply streams.
Why it's in the product
A cheap carbohydrate. Nutritionally close to white rice, minus most of the bran.
Safety and toxicity
No safety concern. It is a lower-value fragment rather than a harmful one, and seeing it high on a panel tells you where the formula is saving money.

General reference, not veterinary advice. Dose, breed, and existing conditions change the answer, so talk to your vet before changing what your pet eats. Think we got this wrong? Tell us and we log it publicly.
