The love for RICE
As a south Indian, I LOVE rice. I crave so much for even plain white rice. With spicy sambhars and tongue tickling rasams, it's delliiiicciiiooouuuussssssss. Who can forget the famous " Thacchi mammam" ( Curd Rice).
When dieting sees rice is one of the major factor for weight gain, it feels very bad. White rice has enriched carbohydrates, which is not good for health if one doesn't exercise. For someone who does work out, avoiding rice helps faster weight loss.
Have you all seen old south Indian movies, where farmers would heap the rice like a mountain on their plates and eat. For the amount of work they did, they needed lot of carbohydrates and all of this would have got digested by the time they eat again
.
For any food, I feel, being able to relish it, is a blessing. Having someone to cook a good food for us or being able to make good food is a blessing again. I have no qualms in saying that I love good food and I don't miss any chance to satisfy my taste buds. After coming here, cooking has become another dimension to my personality and the love for rice persists. I take a cup everyday.
On a lighter note, actress Sameera Reddy ( She will be acting in Varanam Aayiram with surya and has acted in taxi no. 9211), loves rice.
What do you think about eating rice ? How much do you consume in a day ? Do you work out ?
Dear iLites do share your opinion.

Dear ML,
Count on our family for Rice. We can eat rice for breakfast, lunch and dinner. My kids love all sorts of mixed rices for their lunchbox and breakfast. Just can't imagine food without rice that too to complete a meal thatchi mammam.......... and not to say about thayir pacchadi mmmmmmmmm
and you won't believe it we need curd for everything from mixed rice to chapathi, dosa, idli etc as a side dish and the final thing to finish it off.Posted 22nd April 2008 at 03:29 AM by Lalitha Shivaguru - slp,
