Rice, definitely. I was raised on Japanese-style steamed rice, myself!
It's a hell of a lot better than the shitty American rice that falls apart and half the grains aren't cooked so they're crunchy. Chinese and American style rice is a hell of a lot better.

... bread because I like sandwiches.

But rice is awesome. Brown rice... mmmmm. White rice with stir fry covering it... mmmx2

Dang the choice is kind of painful. The bread group in general is awesome.

Fix't, I suspect. ^_^

Yeah, I haven't found too many American style rices that I liked. Some Mexican rice is good, and certain Middle Eastern types (Kurdish and Arabic, especially). All comes back to Japanese, for me.

Sure, I wouldn't say no to a baguette or some Hawaiian sweet bread, and bread probably goes with more things...but have you ever tried to make a curry or a sukiyaki sandwich? Doesn't work.

Wait, are you from Hawaii? Besides that, I live in Hawaii, so I can experiment with a lot of different foods. MMmmm. Curry and Terikyaki with Spam Musubi and Kimchee Saimin is awesome.

Rice. It's not even a competition.

There's such a wide variety of rice that I enjoy. All kind of different flavors that compliment so many different dishes. Hell even on it's own I enjoy rice. It tastes plain, much like bread, but for some reason I prefer it so much more. Probably because I hate the texture of bread so much. I just hate bread that is considered to be "high-quality". Bread is only good to me as one thing; a quick snack. Preferably a buttered biscuit or slice of toast. Actually, I just went to make a piece of toast right now because of this thread. Though if I had some rice, I would have eaten that instead.

You shoulda made it between rice and potatos.
But surely nobody could choose rice over the legendary potato?

Nope, California. We just get that bread in our groceries (didn't even know it was really Hawaiian, I thought it might have just been a brand).

I'm still trying to learn more Japanese cuisine, but I've yet to get more experimental than oyakodon with garlic. As for the others, never tried spam, myself, but I'm willing to believe spam musubi is good; any meat worth eating is worth eating in onigiri (same with vegetables and tempura). And I hate to sound stupid but...what's saimin? I know what kimchee is, but...

I like both.

If you eat the same thing every day, you'll get sick of it in no time - no matter what it is. Variety is what keeps things fresh!

Saimin is basically a combination of various Japanese, Okinawan, and Chinese noodles, served with green onion and daichi and kimchee. It's unique to Hawaii.
