Uh, What? What westerners? Does this not apply to everyone eating rice?

I’ve never heard this ever before. I must go with no, there is no basis to this whatsoever.

People add rice to young infants bottles when they have acid reflux. Thats all I can think of.

What soft drink containing rice do you recommend, or is it: what soft drink should I be drinking while I’m eating rice? How about if I roll a joint with rice paper….that’ll aid in digestion!

Well, I don’t know if it’s “true” (lol) but I guess we could/should have one?

Westerners need more fibers instead of soft drinks.
