Nope, rice is one of my staples. It's the easiest to find replacement flour and although it can behave poorly in a lot of baking (the bread is terribly dry), it's good for frying and as a replacement starch.
The bad foods are: wheat, malt, rye, oats, barely, hops, spelt and undistilled white vinegar. Which means most packaged foods (which contain things like maltodextrin and other wheat-derived flavourings or preservatives) and lots of flavourings (white vinegar is in EVERYTHING like BBQ sauce and such) are off limits. As are beer and American cider (which often has hopps added for flavour; this is not true with foreign ciders).
