Food lists and ingredients - starch food list
All too often, the Western diet is based on wheat, or wheat/ rice/ maize.
As the following list shows, a wide variety of starchy foods are available in the supermarkets.
A healthy diet should be based on a broad range of these starchy foods.
These lists also show the wide range of protein foods now available. A broad range of foods in the diet should always be the aim of the menu planner.

There are many, yams, beans, parsnips, corn, I could go on and on. It's not however what food is a starch, But which food contains starches, the percentages, and what you can do with these foods that contain different percentage of starches. Basically a complex carbohydrate, which is very good for long term energy!
