We Asians live on rice. Why do Europe and America seldom eat rice?

Most Asians live on rice. Other foods can be avoided for a long time, but rice can't. The global population whose staple food is rice is about 2.6 billion. In my impression, Europeans and Americans like to eat milk, bread, potato chips, meat and so on. Their staple food is mainly wheat, corn and soybean products, and rarely rice. Why? As the saying goes in different regions, one side of the soil and water supports one side. The varieties of crops planted in different areas are definitely different. China is one of the origins of rice, which has been planted in China for thousands of years. There are climatic conditions suitable for rice planting in Asia, but there are no climatic conditions such as sunshine and temperature monsoon suitable for rice growth in most parts of Europe and America, so rice planting is difficult. It is more suitable for planting wheat, corn and soybeans, and it is unrealistic to take rice as the staple food. Eating habits, which are different in every region, are formed over a long period of time and are difficult to change. In some areas of our country, pasta is the main food, and rice is not the staple food, such as Shandong, while rice is the main food in the south. The unique environmental climate conditions and cultural factors in each region have created different eating habits and cultures, just like Hunan people like spicy food, Guangdong people like fresh food, and northerners like drinking.
