So I'm allergic to rice. I suspect this means there's a small rice protein that I'm allergic to. Does this mean that rice syrup, which I'm assuming is ONLY the rice carbs & sugars--no protein molecule, is safe to eat?

    Is this a new allergy? Rice cereal is usually the first food of babies.

      I guess it's pretty rare in the US, but comes near the top of the list in Asia. Go figure.

      Wish I knew the answer to the original question!
