Let's talk about something?

[Shelley_c]

I think this may be my first thread in the community lounge so please go easy on me. Rice, we love the stuff, we know it originated from china. or did it? Could the origins of rice and the paddy fields from which they came be a big fat conspiracy?

Your thoughts on the origins of rice from the paddy fields of china.

Edit: Sources close to my heart have stated that rice comes from africa but I'm sticking to my guns just for the hell of it they are wrong. Time to debate.

I disagree with this post in whole and part.

I'd also like to refute some points that rice is not from China or Africa.

The domestication of rice started in India.

for the sake of a good debate and civil cohabitation, I support Shelley's argument and I congratulate her on her witty idea... [Mmmh... love rice!]
