Is sticky rice safe to eat?

Answer:
Hopefully, you are referring to the type of rice called 'sticky rice', and not leftover rice that has gone bad.

Sticky rice is also sometimes called glutinous rice, in a reference to the gluey texture the grains acquire while being cooked, rather than actual gluten; like other types of rice, glutinous rice is safe to eat for people who are gluten intolerant. The rice may be sold milled, in which case the outer husk is removed, or unmilled, in a pale brown variety. Brown sticky rice tends to be less sticky, although it is still gluier than other rice cultivars. It is also possible to find purple sticky rice, a Thai delicacy with a rich, nutty flavor.
