I’m definitely a potatoes girl! Cooked any kind of way. My boyfriend is Asian so it’s all about the steamed rice with him. He eats the rice with everything.

i’m not a bread person at all. when it comes around the restaurant or banquet dinner table, i just watch the other diners slather on butter and gorge it like nothing will come after it. bread is just filler.

i would have to say i am a pasta man, but i even eat that in moderation. starches and carbs are cool as long as you use the good sugar for exercise.

Bread!
Especially San Francisco sourdough.

Potatoes…I love potatoes in EVERY form. When I was kid when I went out to eat I used to order a baked potato with sides of mashed potatoes and french fries!

I like chasing my pasta with some garlic bread.

I’m a big fan of bread and pasta. Rice and potatoes aren’t highly recommended for diabetics according to my nutritionist although I like them and still eat them on occasion.

I can do without rice, but choosing between the other three is going to make me explode. =[

Definitely pasta, I think I would starve without it. However bread is a VERY close second.

As for the other two, rice I’m ok with but I’m one of the only people I know who just doesn’t like potatoes. Not even in potato chip form. I like them fine if they’re in some kind of dish, or slathered in cheese or gravy, but really that only makes plain the fact that I only like them if they taste like something else.

pasta(with lots of cheese), only because you didn’t list risotto as a choice ;)

Potatoes, especially twice baked.

@AstroChuck San Francisco sourdough is my favorite type of bread. I love to grab a chunk and dip it in crab/cheese fondue.

Potatoes or bread.

tiffyandthewall's avatar

yum, carbs!
i’ll go with potatoes. my first thought was bread, but really, potatoes are good no matter what. potato pancakes, hash browns, french fries, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes. they’re all so good.

Pasta. Then potato, then bread, then rice.

KrystaElyse's avatar

baked mashed potatoes with parmesan cheese and bread crumbs on top :D

btko's avatar

I think beer should be in that list!

figbash's avatar

Bread, bread, bread with rosemary or kalamata olives in it, and dipped in olive oil. Mmmmm.
