Gary, White rice isn't that good for you... wholegrain is healthier
Gary
Rice is a staple worldwide except in America where most prefer potatoes. too bad as rice is better for us than potatoes. I like both.

I got this answer correct because I got another one about rice wrong.

Player #11063428, Australian grown rice uses 50% less water than the global average. If Australia stopped growing rice we would import more from overseas (Thailand, China). Australian rice is grown in dry fields with irrigation, not paddies. While much of Australia is dry, places like the Ord river area get nearly 2 metres of rainfall a year and have plenty of water.

Player #11063428, yeah its funny . lets try to grow it in the dumbest places. its because most places are more than likely Chinese owened properties. australia sold out. even lease or major ports to them. money . thing is its our own fault, cause 90 per cent of people can't live within our means.

Gary, Rice is unfortunately grown in Australia where there is shortage of water .It should be banned.

In Guyana, in the planting season, when the paddy fields are flooded, the most delicious fish, locally called "hassa", feeds on the paddy. When they are fairly small - roughly 5 inches in length and with a nice shiny black: that is the ingredient for a famous fish curry with green mangoes.
If more people on death row knew of this dish, they would choose same as a fitting last meal.
