I agree. Bread is ok. Dehydrated rice is a no-no as it swells....
This urban legend "nugget" of wisdom was first voiced by that world famous chicken expert Ann Landers in her advise to the love lorn column. The year was about 1988. I have searched the whole world over and I still have not found any more great revelations from Mrs Landers on the subject of chickens. Poppycock like Mrs Landers advice is what makes this web sight necessary to refute the bull that everyone from PETA to shyster feed companies keeps trying to propagate.

Snopes may be right about this but they have been widely discredited for other so-called "fact checks" so I would read them with a, um, grain of salt. Or rice.I did fact check and because there is so much conflicts no data out there, checking further was needed: I love snopes because they will actually do the research for you. So snopes says "False". Even consuming the rapid amount that would get eaten quickly at a wedding (as opposed to eating in the rice field where it is more time and work to obtain each grain of rice) sounds like it would not tear/burst the crop, which is my concern. Here is the snopes article, with ornithologists quoted.
