This is an asian thing. It's basically rice in water? Yeah.

Ugh, I hate regular, bland congee. It always makes me think of stuff I eat when I'm sick.
I do, however, LOVE congee with more flavour in it...like beef or chicken congee. It's sooo good. Haha, the long fried bread thingies...you mean..."Oil fried ghosts"? Haha. Yeah I love those too. =) |

I like it when it's salty and has meat in it.
I hate those eggs that my parents sometimes put in it. The black ones. I eat it after I get my braces tightened. Congee, I mean. |

I would never eat plain congee when I'm not sick.
Too much congee would make me throw up. I like congee with a bit of flavour. |

Oh, and I wanted to add, that pork dumplings (siu mai or shao mai) with plain congee is EXCELLENT. So is that dried crispy pork stuff.
Try it the next time you're feeling adventerous. =) |

congee is more like rice porridge...not rice in water, that makes it sound so gross
