Consumer groups are pressuring the Food and Drug Administration to set federal guidance on allowable levels of arsenic in rice.
Arsenic is thought to be in rice in higher levels than most other foods because it's grown in water on the ground.
The FDA is studying samples of grocery store rice products and says so far, no evidence has been found that rice is unsafe to eat.
