Why do we always chew rice?

Funny thing, during the recovery phase I had a soft food diet, a very soft food diet; soups, minced
meat and an Asian rice dish called Congee, which is basically a porridge made of rice.

But even though rice is just small grains, you always get the instinctive reaction to chew it, how small does it have to be?

And let me tell you, chewing anything when you have stitches in your gums is never a pleasant feeling.

It’s strange, looking back when I had a full head of teeth, whenever I ate rice I always chewed it before swallowing. It wasn’t until I lost half my teeth that I found I could just swallow it.

It may be the most bizarre thing I’ve ever discovered about myself.

What’s more bizarre is that I’m willing to post it online…
