No rice diet all your life!

hi welcome to mylot. maybe just maybe me and my children can live without rice but i am not sure yet. for we havent tried it yet. i think i have to try it first before i can really say my sight into this. i use to work abroads and still eat rice even twice or thrise a week for we are used to eat rice. my children eats potato, bread, oatmeal, yam and other root crops, if i will let them have a diet of no rice i am not sure that they will just forget rice that easy. maybe i can cut the servings of rice instead everyday i can give it to them 4 times a week. and cook pasta intead or potatoes or oats, but still have rice in a week.

I can survive without rice, but i still prefer eating it. Being vegetarian, it's a major source of energy for me. i do not worry about the shortage of rice but i do give my share to help conserve it or consume it efficiently. I only take and eat what i can consume which is normally a half cup of rice and i dont eat rice in the evening unless i have my workout at the gym.

i dont know if i will survive without rice in the table..and about the price? its fine with me as long as it is deserving to that price i paid off..

i think i can do that if all of us here in our house will all have no rice..hehehe i have been used to eating rice though but if we will come to a point that there will be a big big shortage i will no longer eat rice.

RICE is the cheapest food in earth. but only rice consuming is not good.what ever consume it should be not based on our taste - should be for the body to lead to a healthy life

Maybe i can tolerate a no-rice meal for breakfast and supper but not for lunch. Besides people who are used to the rice diet can survive by eating only rice with a little viand, which can be a fried dried fish or salted fish. The most is that they will just simply prepare congee or porridge out of rice. A pinch of salt to it will make it palatable. The other substitutes you mentioned also cost as much as the rice in our place. It is sad to note that rice shortage occured in an agricultural country noted for its rice research and production..
