IMO, it depends on your tolerance and your reason for staying paleo(ish). If it's just for weight maintenance (like you ) it's probably fine. I have some once in a blue moon, maybe at a restaurant, but I don't bring it in the house anymore. It's too easy for me to waaaay overdo it.

If you're trying to avoid inflammatory conditions, T2D, etc; it's not ideal and could still trigger arthritis flare-ups, etc. It's probably the least-bad grain, but still a grain.

The rules of a plan mean nothing if they don't work for us. I try to remember that none of us can get away with anything. There is no magic zone where the carbs magically vanish.

Paleo is more of a mindset, because we are not in that era. We can only guess. The guiding principle is to avoid processed food, and choose items with high nutrition.

Rice loses on both counts.

Well stated. Similar to how I feel and I treat rice accordingly. It's a starchy grain that has nowhere near the negative effects that wheat has on me, but I treat it with respect and occasionally indulge in rare cases when eating Asian cuisine. I keep it one and done because I, too, would be inclined to overdo it.
