So the question is, Rice is the most popular grain grown in Asia and small amounts are processed into rice flour, so why is bread made in Asia (Cambodia ) not made from rice flour.?

Am I looking on the wrong shelf in the wrong shops.

There's quite a lot of bread made here with rice flour, it's very dry, goes hard easily and tastes sweet; typically found in low end local joints aimed at the lower end of the western market - it's distinguishable because when toasted it doesn't go brown and has very poor texture

AndyKK, one thing is sure, you are not a food photographer. The bread is white, the blue cheese is greenish, and it's not very yummy in a general way. Seen that in some other food pics from you....
No worries, i get that you're a food enthousiast anyway.
A better camera / app could do wonders, but this crude blueish light would be best for an autopsy.

I completely agree..your contributions are very interesting and you seem to be a food lover..but the quality of the pics makes your food look "bad".
