Pasta, rice or potatoes

[Angelina82]

If you could only chose one for the rest of your lives which would it be? Pasta for me all day long 😋

Rice

Potatoes... roasted or mashed or a jacket or boiled or chips or fries or wedges. Lawd I’m hungry!

I've tried those instant rice packs - hard pass. Especially the flavoured ones. DH likes them... but he also likes Pot Noodles & I've tolerated that for many years.

None of them. Whole lentils instead please!

Bread!!!

However, under your arbitrary rules, probably pasta. I’d miss chips though.

@PlanDeRaccordement - gnocchi?

I probably eat pasta every other night, so definitely pasta. I eat rice a lot too, but I only
Really eat potatoes as part of a roast dinner or the occasional jacket potato.

Can I have "carbs starting with a P" as my choice please.
So, Pasta, potatoes and pain au chocolate? That should do me.

DH would say rice anytime.

Definitely would not be rice. But I am really torn between pasta and potatoes.

Pasta

Potatoes!

Someone once told me that you can get all your nutrients from buttery, cheesy mash and it's a notion I live by!

Pasta or rice, but then I eat a LOT of Chinese and other Asian style food. Id hate to choose between rice and pasta/noodles. Potatoes are delicious but don’t eat them that often.

Potatoes every single time.

@Cam77
If you choose rice, you can still have rice noodles :)

Chips and crisps are both potatoes on their own.

Don't forget chats. Bubble (without the squeak) gnocchi.

Gnocchi- aren’t they more of a dumpling than a noodle? I’ve had it once and it was these little balls fried in something.

Rice. Steamed properly, none of this 'boil rice then drain' method that seems far too common here.

@SisyphusAndTheRockOfUntidiness
I agree wholeheartedly on the instant rice packs. They are disgusting.

Rice!

Potatoes. You have to ask?

Rice. But I live in Asia and have a taste for the flavoured carb of my host country!

I'd fight you for all of them I love carbs. But if I had to choose I'd say potatoes. As they are more versatile. Also I eat quite a lot of gnocchi and polenta so feel I could cheat a bit and use those for Italian dishes. I'd miss rice in East Asian food though. But could manage with bread and potato in India food.

Roasties. Home made. Not that aunt Bessie rubbish.

Potatoes

Although I would miss the others, potatoes are so versatile, and I'm OK with cauliflower as an alternative to rice.

The people making other suggestions are just wrong. Op has not limited those things, so you can have them AS WELL.

Potatoes. More versatile and more nutritious
