I don't do well with nightshades. Felt better after I cut out potatoes.Brown Rice

Never have, only bananas and some red bananas but got annoyed with them because it's too hard to tell when they're ripe and it takes for ever before they even become ripeI pretty much stick to white rice so I don't have a dog in this fight.
I find white rice tastes better and there's no phytic acid/arsenic compared to the brown rice as @biscuitsbrah said. Like @Robocok mentioned potatoes are a nightshade and contain a fair amount of lectins so if you've got autoimmune issues you may want to be careful. Potatoes are ranked pretty highly on most scales that measure satiation so if your goal is weight loss then the potatoes might be a better choice since they'll be harder to over-consume because of how full you'll be feeling afterwards.
Plantains are a pretty health choice in terms of starchy carbs. Have you ever had them?

I like potatoes and rice because I eat them with meat and they compliment each other well. I used to eat sweet potatoes but got tired of them, now I only eat them in november. I feel like they're not as healthy because I have to eat them with butter and sugar otherwise they're nasty. Oatmeal, bananas and cereal are pretty much the only standalone starches I eat nowHemp seeds

Well the carb itself will be the same but depending on what source you get your carbs from, you could also be taking in a lot of other unhealthy stuff like trans fat, sugar etc, and missing out on important vitamins and mineralsThere’s no such thing as healthy/unhealthy carbs. Ask Greg Doucette. Calories in, calories out bro. Complex carbs mean nothing
Just put in the work and dont worry about small things like this.
You forgot to mention Pizza, Frode.........
Not just pizza. Everything.
I am on a see-food diet.
Get it?
You eat oatmeal right?Well the carb itself will be the same but depending on what source you get your carbs from, you could also be taking in a lot of other unhealthy stuff like trans fat, sugar etc, and missing out on important vitamins and minerals
Yea but I like rice and potatoes for dinner because you can mix them with meat and have a well balanced healthy meal that also tastes goodYou eat oatmeal right?
I'm fairly certain that they're the healthiest source of carbs that there is, at least amongst standard foods, like breads, rices, potatoes, pasta, etc.
They've got tons of fibre though, which while healthy, means it takes long to digest.
