I recently watched a documentary about the Romans, and they mentioned that they found rice. I thought that rice, pasta, etc... was unknown to the Romans?
After thinking about it, it made since. We know that the Romans traded with the east for spices, silk, etc.. and with the large deposits of Roman coins found there. Rice can be found all over the orient so why wouldn't it be found in Rome as well?
