Why Filipino's go ga-ga over rice!

Good Day to you all!

I left off yesterday with why Filipino love to eat rice...let me start with a short definition.

Rice: A cereal grass (Oryza sativa) that is cultivated extensively in warm climates for its edible grain.

The starchy grain of this plant, used as a staple food throughout the world especially in Asian countries.

If you ask us Filipino's why we go ga-ga over rice...our reply....we just shrug our shoulders and smile.  meaning it is just so....next question please....hahaha..unexplainable addiction. We eat rice for our breakfast,lunch and dinner. and of course our midnight snacks sometimes we enjoy cold steam white rice with scrambled egg and sardines or tuyo (dried fish)...hmmm....getting hungry? Filipino's can't survive the day with out having rice with their meal we go ga-ga....

But seriously ....Rice are carbohydrates and since Philippines is  a tropical country we need a lot of carbs more energy more sweat...
