    Potatoe vs. Brown Rice....?

    What is the Difference between "eating a Baked Potato and Brown Rice?"

    I understand that Rice is the Faster burning carb...is this correct?

    When can you eat a Potato....and how does it store carbohydrates?


    BTW: I'm talking about a plain bake potato...no sour cream, no butter.

    Baked potatoes are a very high gi; brown rice instead is one of the best carb sources. If you wanna potatoes, take sweet potatoes. They're also one of the best carb sources.
