I've been asking some people what their favorite foods are, and they would list alot of different kinds of food, but the main thing that was so repetitive in their lists was RICE. I mean, I eat rice everyday, it's just a typical thing for me. BUt then again, it gets SO SICKENING to eat it every single day, every night. And on the weekends, I eat it ALL DAY. Okay I realize that there are different kinds of side dishes that you can put with the rice, such as steamed broccoli, fried fish, or some type of soup. I know this is odd, considering I'm asian and all, but I'm beginning to HATE rice.

I know that alot of Asians as well as other ethnicities, have rice as a main dish. Then you have different side dishes in which to add onto rice. Rice is somewhat healthy and it seems that people are saying that they like rice alot. But what if you had to eat that ALL DAY? I mean, many asians probably eat rice for dinner every night, and it's becoming a daily routine. But for me, I ate rice even when I was young, when I was like probably 2 years old or something.

To me, rice is so typical, and it's really boring to eat the same thing everyday. Sure, once every week, I might have noodles, or spring rolls, or something like that, but when it all comes down, the rice cooker is still steaming the rice and waiting for the rice to be eaten. There's nothing in my house to eat, except Asian food, which somehow deals with eating rice.

Anyone feel this way? Does anyone ever get tired of eating rice?

Haha well for me, I don't have anything against eating rice at all. Keke.
I love rice! It never gets too boring. Like you, I've been eating rice ever since I was able to eat. What's there to get tired about? =P

I eat it everyday for dinner. But I dislike it so much. I dislike all Korean food. Maybe I was meant to be pure American (well, I was born here)

I love rice! If I don't have rice, then my meal isn't ready..well most of the time. Of course I don't eat it alone..that's when I would say it tastes boring, but I just have to have it in my meal. If not, it's kind of like things are too salty...I dunno, too hard to explain.

Rice is good with chicken. =] if I have chicken everyday, then rice everyday.

If you're Asian and you've been eating rice everyday of your life (like me) you'll tend to dislike it. I'm totally sick of it. Sure there's all sorts of dishes but when you see the rice it's like ARGH.
juliar
rice has to have enough stuff with sauce on it to be good. white rice is bad...and ive been eating rice ever since i started eating and chewing.

Yea I know >_<" LoL I mean, it's not like i HATE HATE it, I wouldn't mind eating it, but i dislike eating it everyday. I don't know.. I mean yea sure, I have alot of stuff to add to it, but just the same old taste of rice when it's in my mouth and yea =T

Technically, I'm one of those people who eat so much of some food for like a month, they tend to quit eating it for a month or something. If I ate something I get tired of eating so much, I start to gradually eat less of it because my tummy doesn't feel like eating it anymore, so I feel full after eating it. I've been eatting rice ina small bowl nowadays, and getting large helpings of whatever side dish I eat it with. I want to cover whatever taste of the bland rice I eat everyday...

Yes, I agree with the majority here also, that you can't live without rice. Because rice is good and all, but I get tired of it. Once I went on a cheesecake spree (1 or 2 cakes a week, but not that big a cake.. a mini cake, like that Sara Lee one) for like a month, and after that, I just couldn't eat anymore. Chesecake is my ALL TIME favorite food! But now I eat it when I can because it's been a while since that cheesecake spree...
MmMMm

okay so anyhow Rice.. well some of us are bound to ge titred of it. I'm FULL ASIAN as well, as many of us probably are. although some of us aren't =T hehes but hey Rice, everyday, seems too much of a daily, boring routine. I'm NOT one of those people who are all, "Yay, Rice for DINNER... AGAIN!" lol
lookitskim
haha yea i've been eating rice all my life. U can eat rice with almost anything! . But it is kinda tiring... That's y i dont eat it every single day... morning to night. UGH!
CEP
Rice is okay. I've got nothing against it. I dont seem to get full if I don't eat rice with a meal.

Rice is good, but I agree, after eating it every day, it does get boring, and I don't like eating it very much.
aud_chua
i like rice a lot.. no clue why, though.. i just never get bored of it.. unlike when i used to eat noodles or bread.. i got tired of it after 3 days.. hahaha..! but with rice.. nah.. never happened.. rice is really good also cuz you can prepare it in many different ways.. like sushi, fried rice, rice balls, etc..
heheh... i'm just a rice person.. ^^
mengster
rice is freaking awesome. but of course you don't eat it by itself... not much taste. i think it's good for filler because those stupid noodles are so hard to pick up
Just_Dream
yea.. ther'es this one really slippery noodles.. i dunno how to spell it.. but in viet, it's called [b]Bun Canh[b] or something? hehes well anyhow those ar really slippery because there's so much oil in the soup part. And Pho is kinda slippery too. I guess you just have to hold the chopstick just right, but we have our own ways of hold chopsticks happy.gif

It depends on what kind of rice... I hate the really thin long dry ones, but I like the fat sticky, Japanese rice used for stuff like sushi. I go to boarding school in England, so I don't eat rice at all here, but when I go back to Japan in my holidays, I eat it everyday.
