As far as know it's good for you and tastes great with a thicker creamier taste than normal rice. Despite the name, glutinous rice is gluten-free, it also contains Selenium which is a good antioxidant. I usually eat this as part of Thai meals. So a thumbs up from me, but I would imagine that brown rice is lower on calories, but a bit boring.
