Europeans tend to consume foods made up of wheat. They seem to avoid rice as much as possible. Why are Europeans not a lot inclined towards rice and the like?

Wheat is what grows best in Europe. The climate isn't ideal for rice, except around the Mediterranean. Italians eat risotto and the Spanish have paella.

Too cold to grow it here. Too cold to risk only wheat too, barley used to be popular.
