Noodles are the staple food in the northern part of China, especially in the part where the temperature remains cold. This area has a long winter and a moderate summer season. Beijing can be considered the bottom line of this area, so noodles are very popular here. Rice is also a parallel staple food here but more popular in the southern part of China where the temperature is higher with a strong summer season and in the coastal area near the South China Sea, the tropical weather is the area where people love rice just like other tropical countries in this area. Sticky rice is the only kind of rice that is available here, and it is convenient to eat using chopsticks. But in Bangladesh and in the Indian sub-continent, people eat with their hands as their habitual history.
Dear @tanzil2024 !
Hassan!
I came across your excellent article late in the day!😄
Since ancient times, northern China has been a place where wheat is grown because of its cold climate. So, they mainly eat noodle dishes.
However, in southern China, where the temperature is close to the tropics, rice was mainly eaten because rice farming was practiced.
Because rice yield per unit area is superior to wheat, East Asians eat rice as a staple food.

As a tropical country citizen from Bangladesh, I have the habit of eating rice for my lifelong experience. I always loved eating rice as my main staple food, but often, I love different tastes to have some varieties in my food habits. But I have many experiences with noodles from different localities, such as the Lanzhou noodles, Beef noodles, Xinjiang noodles, fried noodles and many more. Among them, Beef noodles and Xinjiang chicken noodles are my favorites for their unique taste for different taste buds.
I eat rice as my staple food all my life, but I also enjoy beef and pork!😄
I wonder what the noodles taste like when they are made Islamic style!
Where I live, noodles with beef and pork broth are common!

Do you know where the world's oldest rice seed was discovered?
