How much rice do people in Europe consume? Still very far from the 268kg in Bangladesh. Source: https://landgeist.com/2022/06/25/rice-consumption-in-europe/

Does Brazil consume rice because of Portugal, or is it the other way around?

I guess must be Portugal's influence in Brazil. Rice is cultivated in Southern Europe since ancient Greek times and it was made popular in Iberia during the Arab occupation, so since before there was a Portuguese state.
