Thread: Brown rice/bread/pasta. Do you partake?

peter you cannot even balance and spread out the mussels on that sarnie
and you are telling me you know about balancing your diet .....

google it
ok ill do it for you

Too much of a good thing, no matter how good, is bad for you. Fiber is no exception. Eating fiber in excessive quantities, no matter how healthy is may be for you, is forcing the body to work overtime. Eating fiber can also lead to weight gain as well as problems with the digestive system.

the idea of food is it stays inside us long enough to be digested , eating too much fibre flushes it through too fast .
you need a balance of soluble and insoluble fibre

I like brown bread so tend only to buy that, or sourdough, or wholegrain or...whatever looks good

brown rice is good but I don't eat it often

brown pasta, not really!

who cares? what is important is does it taste good!

all this health nonsense is totally unnecessary if you just eat good natural food

stay away from processed muck as much as possible

Short and sweet, Andy.
Well stated.

Even though I always try to eat wheat bread or something with a lot of grain in it, I am a little confused about brown rice.

Aren't there different grades of rice here in Thailand, some being more healthy than others? I always thought the rice we eat here in different than what is available in the west except in oriental markets. Can someone explain this rice question? Also, isn't purple rice more healthy for you than white rice?

Oh, I do not eat brown pasta. I have eaten wheat pasta in the past, but do not really like the flavor.

Looks great, but .....No cheese.
bet it's tasty all the same. (a squeeze of lime)

A squeeze of lime sounds even better than cheese!

Brown Rice is stupidly expensive in Issan. My GF thinks I am crazy to eat brown rice. Pang Mak Mak! LPG Mak Mak for Kooking. Too much time. Eat Issan Sticky rice, always cooked by Pa. Admittedly I do like his sticky rice, which he grows out in his paddies. He is the champion extended family Sticky Rice Farmer/Chef!

Which part?

25 baht a day does me just fine for 2 to 3 meals.

Any diabetes epidemic can be explained by genetics and an over consumption of sugar. Take a look at how the northerners cook their food. Tons and tons of sugar. They like sweets as well and lots of sugar in their drinks and coffee.

No real mystery as to why diabetes is prevalent.

Similar to why westerners have so much heart disease. Take a look at the amount of salt we use and how much red meat we eat.

or....just in general, the said quality of food in the West isn't that good - especially along the lines of nutrition.

All the bread is homemade as I don't like the poison in bought bread.

OK mate, how about the receipe !

Take a 'normal' bread recipe and take everything out that isn't needed.

A UN or WHO study revealed that diabetes has skyrocketed in T'land over the last decade.

Ever since the uptake of processed shite from 7/11 and street vendors going from selling quality foods to deep-fried garbage with sugar-loaded sauces and dips.
