Changing the mindset of Indonesian people about the source of carbohydrates in addition to rice is not an easy matter. Moreover, there is the assumption that if you have not eaten rice then the stomach has not been full.
Director of SEAFAST Center (Southeast Asia Food Science & Technology Development Center) Prof. Dr. Nuri Andarwulan said the thinking is part of the psychological side. Because the thought comes from the pattern of care and has been recorded in the brain since childhood.
"Need to educate specifically and continuously if the source of carbohydrate is not just rice," said Nuri to Kompas Lifestyle in the discussion "Phenomenon Naive Subject Picu Sugar, Salt and Excess Fat Consumption" in Grha Unilever, South Tangerang, Tuesday (25/7 / 2017).
There are various sources of carbohydrate substitute rice that we can get from local food sources such as sweet potato, taro, cassava, until sago.
By comparison, the amount of carbohydrate in 100 grams of sago reaches 87.55 grams. Then for 100 grams of taro, carbohydrate content reached 26.46 grams. While in 100 grams of rice contained 27.9 grams of carbohydrates.
