Sounds Yummy, does not matter how the rice is cooked but I prefered fried.. I will eat it with just about anything people put on it. My favorite is the pink stuff that comes with sweet and sour chicken and that yellow rice from the Mexican Resturant I also liked Vegetable Fried rice... But eating it alone is dangerous for me at times I get to eating it so fast I start choking then laugh at myself for how stupidly fast I am eating it :).. and I laugh at the thought after surviving numerous lightning strikes RIP a bowl of rice giggles. - DNatureofDTrain

Hi marketing, most of the time I eat rice together with my hubby. My husband’s elder sister is a tv freak and enjoys having her meals and watching tv program at the same time. She would eat together with us only during festive days. My husband would drive her to clean her son’s house once in a week or every other week, so I usually would take my rice alone on that particular day. I feel reluctant to take the trouble to prepare dishes for myself only, so I usually will steam a small bowl of rice. I then pour the well stirred egg with soy sauce and pepper added to it onto the hot rice. Then stir it thoroughly and let it to steam for another couple of minutes. If I am really lazy that day, I would eat the plain rice with soy sauce and olive virgin oil added to it only, and it tastes extremely delicious Happy posting and have a nice day.

Really my dear, rice is our staple food and we could hardly survive without it. Rice always tastes delicious even we take it in a very simple way, just like what you have mentioned above to eat with soy sauce only. Thanks for the best response

eating rice - rice is healthy food. I love rice very much.
Hello marketing friend. I can eat rice without dish, but I will fry it with some oil and an egg to make it taste better, which is a simple way of cooking on my side. Sometimes if I feel lazy, I just boil some porridge and eat it with some white sugar mixed. Ways are many though to eat rice alone. Take care, friend.

I can eat rice alone but I prefer some adding like a butter or a source. I love juice rise not dry and heavy. Often I add green pees to the rice and stew them together for a bit. It turns out really tasty and healthy.

If you mean rice with seasonings, well yes i can eat with that. But rice alone, oh no dear, i will choke if its just plainly rice. I also like to eat rice with condensed milk. I also tried to eat rice with soy sauce and oil. I also tried fish sauce, or shrimp paste to go along with it. And even a simple banana and rice is really a good one. We Asians really like to eat food with rice so it is just normal for us to love the simple things to go along with rice. I also tried to eat rice with coffee drink , just pour it in rice and eat, that was when i was a small kid. I also like to eat rice with margarine, they say it makes you grow faster than other kids. So many things to try with rice and you will never go wrong.

marketing07, When we were young, my mother would whip up pork lard and light soy sauce into our rice for lunch. I can assure you that the taste is quite unique and the pork lard is actually extracted by my mother herself. Also, if we are lucky that it falls on the day she is doing it, we will have the pork lard crisps to go along. Taste wise is there but let me warn you that it is not for the faint hearted and heart conditions. Take care and bon appettit!!

Yes i can eat rice that way.Rice is the staple food of my native place.also i like the taste of soy sauce when i eat chinese food.It will be a very great combination.I think adding oil increases the taste of the food.Its a very innovative way of eating plain rice with sauce and oils.I will try it out and see the taste.

rice with any kind of sauce is good to eat alone without any protein or veggi rice is kind of like tofu, it is relatively tasteless and will gladly absorb any sauce you give it. the only thing i won't eat rice with alone is plain tomato sauce or steak sauce...yeah, i've tried it, mixed in some plain rice and added oyster sauce after that ordeal.

Quite number of times I ate rice alone, but thereafter I started imagining eating rice with my family & friends. Its quite natural way of thinking. As you said it is very tasty to eat with soy sauce and sesame oil (perfect combination).
