IB D · Jan 13, 2023

Rice has been a major food for families globally. But with the high cost of rice, we have to find alternatives to the carbohydrates rich food.

So what are the alternatives to rice that we can eat and is affordable? Some people say potatoes. Do you think so?

If you are in Nigeria, I think if you buy spaghetti, it would serve you more than rice. It is sold at NGN500 and should feed you longer than rice of the same worth.

Bread, I suppose. It does, however, depend on the type of bread. There are expensive and inexpensive breads.

Personally I don't think that I'm spending a lot of money on rice on yearly basis because rice is one food that I eat only once in a week, which I believe that is not too much.

It is also the same with the local people here. They usually plant their crops for personal consumption.

I think that potatoes used to be cheap last year. It is almost equivalent to rice now if you want to compare the costs of the both.

Many people are eating food products made from wheat, like bread, so wheat can be grown, if the weather is suitable.

The thing is that we don't even grow wheat sufficiently in my country either. And that is still very expensive. So technically, no grain to save costs.
