That's our staple. Staples vary from region to region, culture
to culture. There's cous cous, potatoes, bread, pasta .. To ask
such a question would be like asking an Italian "hey why eat pasta?
and not red bean, green bean ..."
I guess the one simple answer would be found in history, that rice
was a relatively easy to grow grain that provided adequate
nutrition for our ancestors. In any case, to associate chinese with
just steam rice is like associating an american with potatoes ..
steam rice isn't our only MAIN STAPLE, we have noodles etc.
etc.
Hope that settles this pointless topic.
From here on ...
+1 (My first official +1, always wanted to do it to that ghimolian
.. erm .. i think she's called blanka, but anyway this topic really
is duh .. so +1!)
