Ashkenazic Jews are restricted from eating rice and legumes during Passover, while Sephardic Jews are permitted rice and typically legumes as well.

Ir rice Kosher? Yes.
Can it be consume in Passover? Some say yes, some say no.
Contrary to popular misconception, rabbis or other religious officials do not "bless" food to make it kosher. There are blessings that observant Jews recite over food before eating it, but these blessings have nothing to do with making the food kosher. Food can be kosher without a rabbi or priest ever becoming involved with it: the vegetables from your garden are undoubtedly kosher (as long as they don't have any bugs, which are not kosher!). However, in our modern world of processed foods, it is difficult to know what ingredients are in your food and how they were processed, so it is helpful to have a rabbi examine the food and its processing and assure kosher consumers that the food is kosher.

Check the side of the package that it came in. Look for the K with a circle around it.
if so, then it is, if there isn't one, then no. All K products have this, as most do in stores. Try to find a ethnic section also, they will have it for sure.
Should have a K with a circle and say kosher for passover.

well, you can find rice which is kosher. Part of being properly kosher is having the food blessed by a rabbi, so if it says it isn't kosher, it's not. There aren't any ingredients that aren't allowed in kosher foods in rice, but it isn't a traditional food included in the passover sedar. Still, there's no problem with that if you're not uptight about the sedar.

For a food to be Kosher it has to be blessed by a Rabbi. Sometimes the Rabbis's will bless the plant and thus all the food coming out of the plant will be blessed and Kosher

Only foods blessed by a rabbi are kosher. Its how the rabbis make their money. That and snipping foreskins.

I think so, as long as you eat it with pork and cheese all mixed together.
