The first rice product is the cereal rice. We call it zakkokumai (雑穀米). It's a package with many different types of cereals. zakkokumai is high in fiber and very colorful :D
Then another product I love to add in my rice is mannanhikari (マンナンヒカリ). It is a rice shaped konjac food. By cooking the rice with mannanhikari, you can save calories (up to 33%)! This product is also high in fiber!!!
