My mother had an "endearing" nickname for me growing up: "rice bucket." And yes, it did match my eating habits quite well as I could have easily forgone any part of my meal for another bowl of rice. There's just something yummy and filling about it that makes my tummy happy.
That being said, I'm actually a fan of all things starchy. Pasta, bread, potatoes, rice... bring it all on! I think the worst possible time of my life was when I went on the Atkins diet. It nearly drove me crazy that I couldn't have any carbs. None of my beloved food items. *cry*
Ultimately, if I had to rate my preferences, it'd be: Rice --> Pasta --> Potatoes --> Bread.
What's your preference on starch? How you would rate the following: (Rice/Pasta/Potatoes/Bread)?

pasta>rice (only brown rice though)>potatoes>bread (whole wheat bread - I don't like white bread)
I adore starchy foods also. It's practically all I eat!
Mine would be: Bread (bagels) > Pasta > Rice.
Most starches do bad things to me: celiac disease and a intolerance to legumes.
When I do eat some, I love baked sweet potatoes. Sometimes, I put quinoa in something I cook. For the most part, I avoid them altogether and just eat meat and vegetables.
Oh! I forgot corn! I eat corn tortillas.
Bread > pasta > rice > potatoes.
My most favorite starchy foods are most definitely potatoes and rice. I simply cannot bring myself to pick between the two.
Rice>Bread>Potatoes>Pasta
Bread>Rice>Pasta
I only wish... I am soooo deprived of REAL food
Rice --> Potato --> Pasta --> Bread because Bread has too many food additive

Yes, my family members have also called me "rice bucket" and "water bucket" before. I thought it was kind of funny. xD
Rice is number 1. Then pasta, bread then potato. Sometimes bread goes straight to the top especially when it's fresh from the oven.
Potatoes > Pasta > Bread > Rice
Rice(white), Pasta(any) & Potatoes(any).
I love carb-y foods!
I'd probably order them the same as you do.
@Alatariel40@xanga - Love Sweet Potatoes. What is this quinoa that everyone is raving about? I take your word seriously as a fellow SP lover!
@fiona - Quinoa is a South American grain the can be cooked and eaten like rice,
or added to other dishes. It has a nutty flavor and seems to be quite
nutritious. It can be found in most health food stores, and some regular
groceries here in Texas. I cook with it frequently.
