Sure, I'm not doubting that SCFA don't have health benefits (or that Coconut Oil doesn't), but just the claim that this rice has "half the calories" or even significantly less. Making even all of the starch present in rice "resistant" depending on the gut microbes present, it could be just as much calories (2.5-4.1 according to wikipedia) from the SCFA.
So healthier, but not "less calories" really, especially with the Coconut oil added (MCFA do have slightly less calories than LCFA, but not all of Coconut oil consists of MCFA).
I'm all about this though, and will probably give it a try myself (I like refried rice).
