    After looking through google reader and finding nothing to respond to, I came across a question. Why do Chinese people like rice? I like rice. What else is there to eat? All the fish in the world will die in a few decades and meat is going away fast too. Everyone who is starving always turns to rice. There is no better solution. So as many people asked...

"Why do chinese people like rice?"

     In general, Asians eat rice a lot. Thats one reason they like it. Back then, rice was one of the first grains ever farmed in China. China had a lot of flat land for paddy fields. Rice is one of the most important food in Chinese's peoples diet.Rice is very cheap and there are lots of it so you can feed your family for a little amount of money. If you eat rice, you know that it absorbs the flavors of other food you eat it with, giving it a different taste every time. It makes meals a lot more appetizing. Rice is high in carbohydrates and can be used as a supplement for many meals.Rice also could make you full and that they do not have a lot of calories in them.Rice to us Asians are like bread to Americans. We do not grow wheat anyways.  Eating rice is part of the Chinese tradition. When food was scarce back then, a bag of rice could feed your family for a long time.  Rice is a good part of nutrition. It grew well in China's climates because of the flooding making the cultivating. Rice is good for storing too.It is so easy to chew and digest.
      The next time someone ask you why do Chinese people like rice, you now know what to say. I highly recommend people to try rice. It is super good, easy to make, and cheap. You should try it for one whole week straight and see if you like it. By the way there is a website called http://www.freerice.com/. You take quizzes and for every answer you get correct the company will donate 10 grains of rice to the world to end hunger.
