STOP PUTTING SO MUCH FUCKING BUTTER IN THEM GODDAMNIT

Even if I eat rice every day I couldn't compete with Asia, they eat it for fucking breakfast

Rice is pointless, it's just a carbs.

rice is a staple here and we are not asian, same with potatoes

It's tasty and easy to prepare.

its full of proteins althought incomplete

Carbs = energy

Rice with eggs and bacon is fucking amazing

It's not. Legumes and oats are. We also eat a lot of buckwheat it's much better that rice

Do Europeans eat delicious long grain rice, or do you only have that shitty short-grain you use for risotto?

It's true. You can see how all of Europe is pretty much dark green indicating something like a 70-30 wheat - corn distribution. Corn is often used as a placeholder to prevent soil degradation and for crop rotation.
But the corn is only used for animal fodder I think. The only times we eat corn is when making something Mexican.

Wouldn't that deplete the nitrogen from the soil?

corn is for cattle duh

Eh it's mainly potatoes and corn which rotate I think. I don't really know much about farming despite growing up surrounded by nothing but farms.
