Well that's certainly good news. I did not know that. Too much plain rice during a trip to Cuba a few years ago and I've just been turned off ever since.
Got a tip for us?

OK, I'll join the party...
1. Meat or cheese? Cheeeese! Not much of a meat eater.
2. Rice or pasta? Pasta! Actually, though, rice IS pasta also.
3. Vegetables or sweets/candy? Vegetables. Love my veggies, especially broccoli.
4. Wine or beer? Beer -- got some Stella Artois cooling in the fridge right now.
5. Water or fizzy drink? Water. Fizzy, carbonated drinks make me burp.
6. Books or DVDs? Well, seeing as how I'm a librarian by profession, the answer to this is....BOOKS.
7. Radio or TV? Ehhh. How about my iPod? OK, well, if I HAD to choose, then it would be the telly.
8. Shoes or socks? Shoes. Don't like to go barefoot; for some reason it makes me feel insecure.
9. Restaurant or cook at home? Ah, a no-brainer here. I come from a long line of non-cooks. Thank goodness for microwaves! Restaurant, absolutely.
10. Bar or club? Ehhh again. Not much of a bar-hopper or clubber.
OTB

1. Meat or cheese? Meat. Rather good BBQed porterhouse last night.
2. Rice or pasta? Rice - in a kedgeree
3. Vegetables or sweets/candy? - vegetables (esp brussels sprouts)
4. Wine or beer? Hmmm. Would have to be wine, with some Yorkshire bitters a close second
5. Water or fizzy drink? Water - although unsweetened flavoured sparkling water is pretty good on a HOT day
6. Books or DVDs? Books. One a week. As many pages as possible. Never mind the quality, feel the weight.
7. Radio or TV? Radio. TV is mostly boring, mind numbing, and usually not very clever.
8. Shoes or socks? Shoes. Can wear shoes without socks, but I don't think I'd like to walk on frost & snow in socks without shoes.
9. Restaurant or cook at home? Cook at home. Then I have no excuse for "restaurant rage" for lousy food, service, or prices.
10. Bar or club? Pub. Northern English. Either side of the Pennines. In Lancashire there's always a little old "Gran" sitting in a corner. In Yorkshire it's the rivetting discussions about shovels, dry stone walls, and Yorkstone roofs.
