Part of my problem is I grew up on rice and still eat it just about everyday. White polished rice. I know its not good for me. My doctor even told me that my cholestrol level was good but my triglyceride was getting to be high. Warned me to cut down on simple carb.
Like you, I was raised on eating white rice nearly daily for supper. I had to reduce intake because of nearing diabetes 2 reading. That was 4 yrs. ago.

So I haven't had rice for past ... 5 months. I seem to eat rice once every few months.

Yes, hardest is sushi..which I do have....but eating a decent amount means I just physically don't feel well. It was this latter effect that kept on being a warning signal to me which had me naturally withdraw from white rice.

In lieu of it, I eat very light Asian pastas. Soba noodles, light durum noodles, etc.

I don't have much rice stored at home. Not even brown rice.
