To answer this question, this paper focuses on the structural position of most Filipinos vis-à-vis rice. Economic changes have rendered most Filipinos, even in rural areas, as consumers rather than as producers of rice. The paper provides a brief social history of rice, from a mainly elite and nonstaple food in precolonial times to a relatively widely available staple food by the end of the nineteenth century. This process was accompanied by two interrelated developments: the diminution of magical elements, and the symbolic displacement of rice. Today, rice reflects the stratification of Philippine society, as supported by the latest quantitative data on rice consumption. The paper concludes with reflections on the significance of rice for commensality at the level of small groups, and on its marginality for the society as a whole, brought about by consumer culture, urbanization, and the Green Revolution. vi 1 Introduction Food and culture are intimately related and mutually constitutive. However, their precise relationship is a matter of debate (e.g., Douglas 1966; Harris 1974; Goody 1982; Bourdieu 1984). Moreover, the relationship between food and culture is subject to the specificities of time and place, and must therefore be understood as a historical process. The celebration of 2004 as the international year of the rice provided the occasion for this paper’s analysis. Offhand, it is noteworthy that this celebration did not grab the attention of most Filipinos. The muted celebration is indicative of this paper’s main argument. Although some may want to see rice as a glorious manifestation of Philippine culture, I would argue for a view of rice as a register of the complexity of Philippine society, history, and culture. The equation of rice with life, as trumpeted during the 2004 celebration, is a rather simple and even romanticized view that is untenable. In any event, the year of rice offered an opportunity to step back and analyze what we easily take for granted in our collective life. To answer the basic question about the centrality of rice in Philippine culture, this paper focuses on the structural position of most Filipinos vis- à-vis rice, which, as the data show, is mainly that of consumer rather than producer, even in rural areas. The first part of the paper seeks to explain the symbolic marginality of rice by examining its social history and the cultural changes it underwent during the Spanish colonial period. The second part analyzes quantitative data on recent trends in rice consumption in order to understand the sociology of rice in the context of contemporary Filipino society and food practices. The third and final part offers reflections on the significance of rice for commensality in small groups and its marginality in overall Philippine society and culture. 1 Rice in the Filipino Diet and Culture 2 A Brief Social History of Rice Rice in the preconquest period Scott (1994) and Junker (2000) provide valuable information about rice in the social life of the inhabitants of what would later be known as the Philippines. In the preconquest period, rice was highly valued and perhaps considered the most esteemed cereal, but it was not a daily staple. Rice production was insufficient and did not allow year-round consumption: “even datus with many slaves ate root crops in certain seasons” (Scott 1990, 291). In the Visayas, Scott (1994, 35) writes: “But since only in a few places could a year’s supply of rice be produced, root crops were therefore the most common food for part of the year, or all of the year for part of the people.” Subject to seasonal flooding, the alluvial plains of Bikol produced large quantities of irrigated rice and supported a large population, but even there, Scott says: “Despite the abundance of rice in some places and for some people, the staple Bikol food was root crops” (ibid., 182). Taro, yams, and millet were the staple cereals of the islanders. These were planted in swidden fields, and around the margins of swidden patches devoted to dry upland rice. Rice was relatively abundant in the uplands, and cultivated using a dibble stick or pole that men thrust to the ground to make holes, where women placed the rice seeds. In the lowlands, wet-rice cultivation depended on transplanting rice from seedbed to swampland, but water levels could not be controlled and rice plants stood the risk of drowning. Lowlanders desiring to obtain upland rice offered seafood, salt, and pottery in exchange (Scott 1994, 36). At the same time, rice was given to the chiefs as buwis, which Spanish chroniclers called tribute (Aguilar 1998, 66). Among the Tagalog, “standardized measures of rice were demanded by southern Luzon chiefs from their commoner constituency, with the number of gantas (approximately three liters of rice) dependent on the amount of land 2 A Brief Social History of Rice cultivated by individual families” (Junker 2000, 237). Based on archeological evidence, Junker argues that “rice was significantly more prevalent in the presumed elite habitation zone in comparison to the nonelite residential zone” (ibid., 331).

Brown rice consists of the outer layers of pericarp, seed-coat and nucellus; the germ or embryo; and the endosperm. The endosperm consists of the aleurone layer and the endosperm proper, consisting of the subaleurone layer and the starchy or inner endosperm. The aleurone layer encloses the embryo. Pigment is confined to the pericarp (Juliano and Bechtel, 1985). The hull (husk) constitutes about 20 percent of the rough rice weight, but values range from 16 to 28 percent.

The aleurone layer varies from one to five cell layers; it is thicker at the dorsal than at the ventral side and thicker in short-grain than in long-grain rices (del Rosario et al., 1968). The aleurone and embryo cells are rich in protein bodies, containing globoids or phytate bodies, and in lipid bodies (Tanaka et al., 1973; Tanaka, Ogawa and Kasai, 1977). The endosperm cells are thin-walled and packed with amyloplasts containing compound starch granules.
