Eating Rice, So typical, so boring. Options

[Just_Dream]

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?

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.

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
