What the label is naming
Brown rice syrup, and the shorter rice syrup, are added sweeteners in this catalog. They are not rice bran oil and they are not puffed rice. Shoppers who avoid refined sugars and shoppers who only avoid cane sugar may disagree; the default category includes the syrup, and a household can allow-list it.
Where it hides
Granola bars, cereal clusters, and some gluten-free cookies. The syrup is often the second ingredient, right after oats or rice.
