I know that Basmati rice is SB legal. My bf and I bought white Basmati rice. Is white Basmati rice legal or does it have to be brown Basmati rice?

You may have white basmati rice on phase 2.

I just took an Indian food cooking class recently and the chef told us that white basmati and brown basmati are the same...white just has the brown "husk" removed.

Yes, the nutrients are all in that husk.
