Why do Filipinos eat rice in the morning?

Because breakfast is like any other meal, and (in general) a "meal" with no rice is no meal at all.

Also, we've devise countless rice-dishes (meal-type to snack-type; sweet to savory; crispy, chewy, firm, gooey; saucy to dry; with visible rice-grains to none; etc.). Add that to the other rice-dishes of other cultures, and we'll never get bored with rice for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks in between!

Rice is a great carb... energy to start your day..

what do you eat with it in the morning? chicken would be too early

[Zolly99999]

What's the difference when you eat it? I eat chicken and rice for breakfast sometimes. Or have eggs at 8:00pm at night.. there is no time of day you can only eat certain foods.

[Asker]

isn't it bad for the stomach?

[Zolly99999]

No for me it's not. . I've done this my whole life with out issues.

Because rice is delicious and it's cultural.

Rice to us is like sugar laden cereals for Americans.

Coz that’s what we do 😂

Yayyy thanks for the MHG

Probably for the same reason I eat it for breakfast. It's cheap and a lot like oatmeal. You can throw things like fruit, brown sugar, cream into it and it ends up tasting more or less like oatmeal with the same stuff in it.

[Asker]

[Asker]

[LazerBean]

Who says rice isn't for morning? And my mom is Filipino.

[Asker]

because it isn't? no country beside flipilions eat rice in the morning and I just found out about it today on a live stream I was watching

[LazerBean]

And why isn't it? Many Asian countries have rice for breakfast.

[N192K001]

Exactly! Japanese breakfasts are like this as well.
