Crazy Rice Fat

Rice, a grain. Part of the Poaceae or "Ture Grass" family. Many people around the world eat this delectable treat! It can be a breakfast food (rice cereal or even added to a breakfast burrito!) It can be a lunch food (Rice-a-Roni.) It can be a dinner (rice with hamburger gravy). It can even been a friend to talk to when lonely (Rice Crispies!) It's just crazy what you can do with rice!

I think rice makes you fat! That's right, FAT! Now understand I have no BYU Studies to back me up on this one, nor any other university studies to support my claim. All I have is common sense. Now you may argue common "sense" can't pay for a snack (rice cakes) but it sure can make change!

Now let's take a good look at a country just South of the country I live in. Or I guess you could say it's just West of the Gulf of Mexico (not to give any specific names of countries, I wouldn't want to offend anyone.) Anyway, what do they eat a lot of just South of the boarder? That's right! Rice and beans!

Now one may speculate, "Maybe it's the beans that make one large in stature." Well, I point out example two. Sumo Wrestlers! They are no small fry! (Ham
fried rice!) They are large and in charge. Some would say they like to help their friends (and foes) step out of their social circle. Anyway, what do Sumo Wrestlers eat plenty of? You guessed it, RICE!

So maybe what I'm getting at is there is a fat secreted from
the tiny morsel that clings to the inside of people to make them even larger! I know it sounds crazy, but maybe, just maybe, my suspicions will be supported by a university study someday. Someday!

Please find a study to tell me what I eat that makes me fat. :)

And "hello Mr. Snap how are you today?". I can see you doing this!!

I see a flaw in your study of rice and fat people...Rice-o-roni, you know the "San Francisco Treat". I have been to San Francisco a numerous of times. There are numerous of fat people there but I believe the majority of them are pretty skinny. I know call me crazy, but how else would those in Alcatraz fit in the cells, and they do have the metro system called the BART (unlike Fresno) that fits tons of people on their trains...now if they were all fat like those others you mentioned then I am pretty sure that they would be out of business or at least have financial issues like the air line company have, could you image paying for two sits on the metro!
