Or, you could, I don't know, just not each as much . . .

What if you are making a rice based dessert and wanted a lower calorie ingredient but not take away from the taste or texture? Problem solved.

Eat less of the dessert; savor each bite. People who inhale a whole pint of ice cream in less than 10 minutes are the problem, and no amount of lo-cal will help them; they'll just eat more. For a large number of obese, it's not about being full, it's about eating to distraction, or eating unconsciously, or to fill an emotional need.

So if I'm making a rice dessert dish for a party, that's typically served cold anyway, I should make no attempt to make it healthier? Instead I should tell everyone not to eat (much of) it?

If there's no change in flavor or texture, this preparation seems like a win win.
