No-rice diet...

Rice that was $5.25 is now $9.50.... that's like a whooping 50% increase!!! Sighz.... I live on rice... a lot of rice!!! Luckily I bought a lot of spices to make noodle dishes..... gotta cut down on rice now. How am I supposed to gain weight this way when the price of food that I eat keeps shooting up?!??! Bread stays the same.... but I HATE bread! Oh woe is me...
