Starch is found in plant foods which are eaten as 'fillers'. Grains such as wheat, maize and rice are examples, and anything made from them such as bread and pasta. There are also roots such as potato and cassava.
Starch is a substance many plants use for energy storage, though a few use other substances, e.g. inulin in Jerusalem artichokes.
