I was just wondering what time of the day do you usually eat rice? I eat it for breakfast and for dinner. For lunch I eat some other stuff. So, do you eat rice for breakfast, lunch, or dinner? Or all three?

Generally, I prefer rice with dinner because our family are together and we can enjoy eating food together. Yes, I never prefer eating rice in my breakfast in fact I start my day with breakfast including milk, eggs, bread, cornflakes, fruits, etc. A good breakfast provides the nutrients that people need to start their day off right. One of the biggest nutritional mistakes many people make is skipping the breakfast meal. Chicken biryani is one of my husband's favorite dishes--it's hearty, filling and tastes fantastic. If I prepare it in my lunch when he is on leave or if its holiday.

I eat it on all meals of the day. I eat rice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Sometimes, I want to skip rice but my mom won't allow me. It's like a necessity in every meal, she want me to have rice in every meal. It's heavy in my stomach.

Hi Merlinsorca, I seldom have rice for my breakfast,only once a while I will have nasi lemak for my breakfast. I prefer to have light breakfast in the morning and most of the time I will go for bread. It is the most easiest breakfast to prepare.JUst need 3 slices of bread with some spread of jam/kaya,it can get my stomach full for the whole morning. For lunch, sometimes I will have rice if there is any leftover rice from lastnight. I will cook fried rice or just cook one dish to go with the rice. As for dinner, I will stick to rice most of the time. Since I have a little boy at home, eating rice is better during dinner time. I will cook simple dishes to go with the rice. Normally, I will cook 2-3 dishes:vegetable,chicken/pork/fish and soup.

I live in a country where rice is a staple food. I eat rice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don't get satiate if I eat something to substitute rice like bread, or pasta. (^_^)

For lunch or dinner, usually with either Asian or Mexican cuisine. But not every meal, not nearly. I'm more a potato or pasta kind of person.

I eat rice with curry only for dinner and if ever we are all at home on week ends then we cook rice to have it for lunch too, so I like to have rice though.

I usually eat rice at breakfast, lunch and supper. My favorite breakfast is made up of rice soup plus pickles. I think such combination at breakfast is helpful to the process of digestion. Rice is the main food of my lunch and supper. According to the traditional view here, if you don't eat rich at the table, it means you don't have your dinner. According to my own feelings, I will soon feel hungry if I don't eat rich in dinner. So rice is indispensable in my life.

Rice is a staple food for most southeast asian countries like here in the Philippines. Rice is always part of our meal, we eat it three times a day from breakfast, lunch and dinner. to add variations in cooking rice you can serve fried rice in the morning and steamed rice for lunch and dinner.

I eat rice for dinner. For breakfast and lunch, I eat by myself so I usually just eat something easy to make like cereal and a sandwich. For dinner, I would help my mother prepare the meal and cook the rice for the family. I wouldn't cook it if it's just for myself.

I eat rice during breakfast and lunch only. Also, it has to be red or brown rice, and not white rice. If there's only white rice available then I would go for wheat bread instead.

I live in a SE Asian country, and so I eat rice for all meals usually. Of course, sometimes I choose to eat other foods like sandwiches and such. But rice here is our staple food and it's the same as bread or potatoes in other countries. I live in the Philippines where we have the world's greatest rice terraces and we need that rice to live properly. Sometimes we also eat corn meal that is ground and cook it like rice as well, when we have less money to spend on rice.
