The reason being .....?

Not that there is anything wrong with potatoes or rice...mmmm...me like starches..<g>

1. I like both equally-maybe like potatoes better due to the variety of the way you can fix them-which can be dangerous(hard to stop eating them!), but rice takes less time to cook. I can have rice done in 20 minutes, but potatoes take longer to boil and mash-sometimes I will roast taters with dinner tho..
2. Rice is whole grain food<g>...nutritionally, there may not be much difference...rice might be slightly better in glycemic load, but potatoes may have more trace nutrients(I eat, for the record, brown rice or basmati and potatoes with skins)
3. The stuff I cook/like to eat is rice-based...like chicken and rice, soups with rice, stir fries, rice and pea casserole(a version of hoppin'john with rice and sausage)...
