Forty years ago, in many countries, two common starchy foods were potatoes and rice. Potatoes have long been a staple in various cuisines, providing a versatile base for numerous dishes. Rice, particularly in Asian countries, has served as a primary source of carbohydrates, integral to daily meals. Both foods remain popular today due to their nutritional value and adaptability in cooking.
