Bread is yet another type of food that can be found in various forms on every continent. Steamed buns are a common breakfast item in China, while the Brits are crazy about sandwiches, consuming around 12 billion of them annually. Not surprisingly, the Germans make 1,300 different types of bread. In some countries, no meal is complete without a loaf of bread at the table. Let’s not forget about toast or bread crumbs either!
5. Potatoes
Much like the other foods on this list, potatoes are popular because they are so versatile. They can be fried, baked, mashed, shredded, and boiled. They make sense to eat as hashbrowns for breakfast, french fries for lunch, and mashed potatoes for dinner. There are more than 4,000 dishes that incorporate the potato in one way or another. The bad rap they get for their carb count is overrated. They are full of nutrients and fiber, allowing you to stay full for longer which in turn keeps your weight in check.
