Neither one; too many carbs in both rice and potatoes. I have not eaten either one in over 8 years.

When we were young, Friday dinner was cubed small potatoes with rice.  Sometimes with red sauce; other times, milk-based sauce.  Money was very tight !

Potatoes for me. Which do you prefer @ECBG?

I do love white rice with cinnamon, sugar, butter and a splash of milk though.

@Goldengate8361   Good for you. What do you find filling to take their place?

Potatoes; baked, boiled, fried, mashed, just not cooked in any way with cheese.

@panda1234 Nothing really "takes the p!ace" of rice and potatoes. I eat a lot of meat and salads (heavy on the greens). I can sincerely say that I don't miss rice or potatoes.

I have always preferred potatos, although, I like fried rice.

 

The only rice I liked growing up was when my grandmother's housekeeper made her gravy from fried chicken!  She was an amazing cook.  

She rarely cooked for our family after I was about eight I guess.  I always loved that woman and asked her my "adolescent questions" growing up.
