In our house in Australia it's normally rice first then bread and.potatoes, we hardly ever eat pasta. Australia wide I'm sure bread and potatoes would be the front runners followed by rice and pasta.
The bread in Seoul is all of the sweat variety, right now i would just love to get my hands on a loaf of bread made of nothing but flour salt water and yeast.

The bread in Seoul seems to be all of the sweat variety, right now i would just love to get my hands on a traditional loaf of whole grain bread you get from the bakeries back home.
I laughed harder than I should at this! Yikes! Hahaaaa
I believe most of us have 'fillers' along with our meals. Be it rice, fries or potatoes, depending on the region we live in. These carbohydrates are the real fillers in our stomach while the rest of the food are probably for taste, I guess.
Wheat and barley are usually associated with the Mediterranean, grains like rye with Europe, corn and potatoes and other tubes with the Americas, rice Asia, but also marshy areas of the Americas. Grains like corn and oats are usually animal feed in North America and Europe, but can be staple foods for people in South America.
Not sure about sub-Saharan Africa. Anyone?
In a country like the US, it can be anything based on a combination of local production, imports and family habits, though one common expression is meat and potatoes.
In my household, it used to be mainly pasta and bread, but lately also rice - but now they are telling us that rice in the US is poisoned with arsenic (wheat-industry propaganda?) - and potatoes as well, sometimes choclos.
I always thought breads were bland, until I went to Germany.
