Already is available for human consumption. There's a co. in California that sell it.

Here's an excerpt from an email to me several months ago from them:

"Food Extrusion Inc. is a great company, the new CEO is Allen Simon
and he has been there for over 5 months. His last job was the CEO of
the Shakley group based out of SF. He took the company from 350 million and sold it to a Japanes firm for 1 billion. The company will be doing great things in 1998, I believe the sales will at least triple. The product is in a powder form and can either be sprinkle over cereal or mix in any drink you like. This company is the only company in the world that can manufacture stabilized rice bran and companies like Monsanto,General Mills,Kellogs,etc. are very interested in this company because of the nutrition of stabilized rice bran.

If you have read our webpage: nature@viabran.com that would be a start. After you read our page then you can ask me any additional questions that you like. FODX doesn't have a website and doesn't sell
to any retail operations, if your interested in the product I have it
and I can answer some of your questions."

So that's where to get more information on the human stuff.

Regarding the company from an investment standpoint, I am still not sure. I understand that some people with questionable character in the world of finance were involved in starting it up but don't have the details. But it makes me nervous.

I also do not believe that a food product per se, even if it can "feed the world", is necessarily a harbinger of good fortune. That leaves the nutriceutical component. And frankly I don't know of what the rice bran's nutriceutical properties really provide. Any facts out there. What is the true potential for this co???
