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 😋

Brown rice all the way

Potatoes! A hot jacket potato with butter is so comforting!

Oh it would be tough between pasta and potatoes.. it would have to be pasta

Potatoes!
You can eat them million different ways AND it makes vodka😁

Ooh what a hard decision.

Ummm probably potatoes!

Could you have sauces with the pasta?!

Potatoes by miles.

A friend of mine lost all her baby weight by cutting out bread, pasta and potatoes and was quite evangelical about it for ages - made me realise how much I love potatoes!

Also my youngest won't eat pasta or rice - never has, no matter what - so we only have pasta or rice once per week and I honestly wouldn't miss them much now.

As others say pasta especially is just empty carbs with very little nutritional value - potatoes are much better (fibre, vitamin C, potassium).

Potatoes 😍

Potatoes. They have much more nutritional value - vit C, iron and protein. A diet of potatoes, oats and milk sounds boring but is nutritionally complete.

Omg, no.

I think... rice. I love rice. Sushi, risotto, rice noodles, plain rice, spicy rice. Rice and mango. Rice.

Do love pasta tho.... wonder if there's a rice pasta?

Potatoes. A life without chips just isn't worth it.

None of these is a top favourite for me.

I like them all ok but vary between them because none is that exciting.

I guess potatoes because of jacket potatoes.

potatos

I like pasta, but potatos are more versatile (and you could even make some kinds of pasta out of it)

rice I can take or leave.

Has to be potatoes because that means you can have chips, or wedges as well as having boiled or mash. It gives you topping to a cottage pie or fish pie. It gives you a whole meal in itself as a jacket potato.

We do eat pasta a lot as it is easy when cooking midweek after work, but no potatoes rules out too many options.

I could put potatoes in to virtually every meal where I now use pasta but couldn't put pasta into every meal where I use potatoes.

Potatoes. I love chips, roasties, mash, boiled you can’t beat em!

Pasta! Love pasta - surprised not many others seem to!

Omg, no.

I think... rice. I love rice. Sushi, risotto, rice noodles, plain rice, spicy rice. Rice and mango. Rice.

Do love pasta tho.... wonder if there's a rice pasta?

yep, there is pasta made from rice in the gluten free section.

Oh and I forgot jackets too!

Potatoes 🥔 as they're more versatile than the other 2 choices....potato gratin, potato rosti, mashed potato, chips, roasties, efc. 😋

Gotta be spuds. So many ways to cook them. I do love both pasta and rice, but I wouldn’t choose to eat either with just seasonings whereas with potatoes I would.

To quote Samwise Gamgee. “Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew!”

rice aaaaaall day long

Definitely potatoes so versatile, then rice and finally pasta.

Potatoes. Or maybe pasta if it's fresh pasta. But probably still potatoes. Rice and dried pasta can take a hike.

Rice is my favourite food although if for forever I'd choose potatoes for their versatility.

Pasta then rice as second choice. There are so many types of pasta and different ways to have it, and if you add in the option of making your own that I doubt I'd ever get bored of it.

While I know they're even more versatile, I don't actually like potatoes all that much, not even chips so we very rarely have them in the house. When we do it's usually a 4 pack of baking potatoes and mine will usually have more cheese than potato so I can eat it.

Potatoes. I love all 3, but i couldn't live without cheesy potatoes!
