A meal without rice is no meal


Daily I search for something new on rice and as I sat googling away.. spotted a website that said much…just sharing with u…did u know rice is arguably the world’s motst important food. 
Second most widely cultivated cereal in the world, after whear, and is a staple food, for over half the world’s population. 
In much of Asia, rice is so central, to the culture that the word is almost synonymous with food. 
In Chinese, the line in the Lord’s prayer is translated as ‘give us this day, our daily rice,” and a Japanese proverbs states “ A meal without rice is no meal”.
