Wholesale stores like sams sell rice and beans in 25lb bags for $5 and $9 respectively. It's usefull to know if you ever have to live on less that $1 a day for food.

Nope. I'll eat it at restaurants sometimes but I've never made it myself.

I make beans and rice with a few spices, zucchini, onion, green pepper, and tomato paste.

before eating, drizzle on olive oil and balsamic vinegar. DELICIOUS

I add black beans to a sauteed onion and pepper and season with cumin and basil. Perfect over brown rice.

Hey Fumbler, I just remembered. Aside from South Asians and Arabs eating rice with stuff added, Spaniards, Italians, and Mexicans also eat rice, and they also add stuff to it.

I thought only people starving in Africa and Asia ate rice nekkid, cause they got nothing else.

Pretty much only slant-eyed Asians eat rice nekkid. Just plain boiled/steamed white rice with meat/veggies on the side.

Rest of the world pretty much mixes the meat/veggies all in.

hot sauce and onions woot

Yeah, it's considered bad manners to mix shit in with your rice most of the time in Japan.
