It’s no coincidence that here on Medium, what we write and submit aren’t “articles” they’re “stories.” We’re all storyte
Rice is often served with an assortment of other dishes. Most commonly as part of an ichiju-sansai meal, or ‘one soup, three sides’. A small bowl of rice that is paired with miso soup, a single-serving protein dish, and two vegetable-rich side dishes.
This is troubling to me, because a fear of food does not solve our health problems. A fear of food only feeds into our anxiety. It leads to extremism, whether this be undereating, overeating, stressful and time-consuming diets, or an obsessive relationship with food. When we find ourselves unable to adhere to strict eating rules, our self-esteem takes a hit and we feel out of control. We do even crazier things to try and regain that control. It eventually creates avoidant behavior so we don’t eat with others, and makes obsessing over food the forefront to our lifestyle when it should be a supplementing factor that brings us joy.
I was surprised because, for all of its tortured racial history, South Africa had impressed me as being somewhat more progressive than the U.S. when it came to race. Despite the country being just a few decades removed from apartheid, race relations seemed to have come so much further than they had in the U.S. more than a century after slavery.
Japanese people eat lots of rice. It’s no hidden fact: on average, a modern typical Japanese person consumes 82.1 kg of rice per year — for comparison, Americans consume about 10.8 kg. In Japan, rice is often served in school lunches and in government cafeterias. It comes with almost every kind of Japanese meal, most typically as short-grain white rice. Yes, the rice that’s served is not brown, black, red, or wild: just plain white rice.
Practice telling stories to your friends and family (you certainly do this already), but pay attention to how they react. What draws them in? What makes them laugh? What surprises them?
Foods should not be feared, and should never be a source of our anxiety. We should not be afraid of white rice like we should be afraid of poison, for this will only perpetuate cycles of obsession, shame and stress-eating, and will further damage our well-being. This applies not just to rice, but to all foods.
One of the best ways to practice writing is to write stories. Even if you primarily write nonfiction or poetry, you should try your hand at short stories. No matter what you’re writing, your job is to tell a story.
This meal is then consumed with the mindfulness of harahachi-bunme, or 8/10ths your stomach, an approach to eating where we neither overstuff nor deprive ourselves of food when we’re hungry.
Japanese people stay lean despite eating lots of white rice because they’re unafraid of it. They have a relationship with it where it neither scares nor intimidates them — instead of avoiding it, they enjoy it in moderate portions, with different vegetables, filling fats, and nourishing proteins. They know that if they adhere to principles of moderation and mindfulness, they’re going to be fine.
There are no food restrictions to ichiju-sansai: you may have meat, dairy, fats, and carbohydrates. But with the set up of the meal, you end up eating mostly plants, a little bit of everything else, and a variety of food types that keep you nourished and satisfied.
So if Japanese people are eating so much white rice and staying lean — Japan has very low rates of obesity at only 4.3%— does that mean it is good for you? Does that mean you can eat it endlessly? Not necessarily, because like all foods in life, there’s a balanced approach to healthfully enjoying food.
It took South Africa only four years after institutional racial segregation began to formally crumble in 1990 to elect its first Black president, Nelson Mandela. The U.S. wouldn’t have a Black president until nearly 150 years after the end of the Civil War.
In Zen and the Art of Writing, Ray Bradbury recommends writing one story per week. As he says, “nobody can write 52 bad stories.” If you write enough of them, you will eventually write a good one. And you’ll learn a lot along the way.

amming problem is where we are given multiple equations. The value of one of the equations has to be maximized or minimized while the other equations are constraints. In high school, we used to plot the equations on a graph, shade the feasible region and find the value of the equation to be maximized or minimized by substituting the variables with the verticle values of the shaded region. I briefly go over this technique in the first part of the tutorialLots of people still cringe at the term white rice. While the pervading notion that all carbohydrates are bad has passed — we admit the health benefits of whole grains and fiber-rich starchy vegetables — enjoying refined carbohydrates still seems taboo. People talk about white rice or white bread as if it’s a toxic substance, as if it’s a cigarette. Refined carbohydrates are often associated with terms like dangerous, cancer-causing, and even poison. That it must be avoided at all costs.
