I haven't had any type of rice since June 2nd. On that day Luftansa Airlines served truly bad version of white rice. Gluey.
I have walked by resolutely every single Asian eatery in Europe so far.
In respect, for the better versions of properly cooked rice varieties that I have known for so long and for knowing how to prepare properly. Every time I walk by, I am reminded of the huge range of Asian restaurants' food choicesand quality in Vancouver (and Toronto where I lived before).
Will I have rice in Toronto ....when I return to visit Canada to see family?
Of course.....I cannot change my mother to cook brown rice. I only see her once a year or less. Probably some siblings/friends might offer something too. Not sure.
So I save consumption for the times where it's closest to the heart.. Food is cultural and can signal intimate, long memory that cannot be wiped out. I just eat alot less white rice last few years. That's all.
