If they can't eat rice, give them bread...


"If they can't eat bread, give them Cakes". You may have heard this. These were the famous words of Marie Antionette during the french revolution. Many think it's a propaganda. Doesn't matter to me for this post.

When we were growing up, our staple food was rice. One ate rice more than three times a day, every day and it was perfect. Bread was expensive that time eating bread, we considered a fortune.

However, when we fell sick with flu, it was a dream come true. We were given milk and bread. Those were the only times I wished I got sick.

"If they can't eat rice... Give them bread...." :-)
