Anything wrong with rice mixed up with dishes?

We Parsis in India have rice mixed with curries or soups or dals (pulses)daily in the afternoon, and it makes for wholesum good food which is tasty and appertising. Anything to make the kids eat and if the child likes it that way, then it is totally wrong for your dil to forbid it. Has she ever given any reason to you. Maybe you could make her read the replies and she will see some sense.

Hi zhuhuifen It is very strange to know that your daughter in law is not allowing her son to eat rice mixed up tasty dishes. There is nothing wrong in it. In fact in our country,rice is always taken by all in that way only. Any how,she should be interested in her child more than you. Just ignore it. Happy mylotting

hmmmmmm maybe a chef in the making i think there is nothing wrong with what the kid is doing maybe you can tell your in laws and check some sites of chinese cooking specifically mixed fried rice maybe thats where the kid got the idea

I don't see what's wrong with it. Italian food is often served over some type of noodles, while dishes like curry and traditional US southern food are served over rice. Rice and noodles are good fillers and a lot of children like to eat carbohydrates (which is what rice and noodles are). Eating some carbohydrates is good for you, as this provides the energy that your brain uses to function.
