Fruit as viand?

What fruit do you think can be partnered to rice or can be an alternative for viand? For me, banana and rice is good, even pineapple and rice will do too. Quite weird but it's true. Any idea? Please share.. :)

not really weird because i've also tried doing that and it's fine, it's delicious. I've tried also banana and ripe mangoes.

Yeah, it's not really a bad taste at all. I guess it's a healthy food..

In tranditional thinking in China, we seldom eat fruit as viand. We usually eat them after we have meals. Now, more and more articals and people tell us we need eat fruit before the meal about 1 hour, after the meal about two hours or eat them at the morning. It's good for our health. However, if you wanna have some fruit when you have a meal, I think, apple or melon may be a choice.

Yeah, we also eat fruit after our meals but sometimes we really think of doing weird combination for our food especially if it does not harm our stomach.. :)

My sister do that. She sometimes eat bananas or mangoes as viand. I dont like it. It taste different eating the mango or banana or any other fruit with rice. I dont know with pineapple cause I dont like it.

It really doesn't taste that bad and I sometimes do it when I don't want my fruits with any cream or milk on it.
