About the lack of rice - given the fact that this is a school that has a large staff of house-elves preparing every meal, Hogwarts might not reflect the type of food that typical UK boarding schools would serve. Also the wizarding world doesn't seem to update things very often, it's absolutely possible that Hogwarts is serving largely the same kinds of foods as it has for 600+(?) years.

tl:dr Hogwarts is a MAGIC school and might not have the same kind of food that muggle UK schools do.

Er... but food (even if you only addressed food in the UK) has changed a great deal over the course of 500 years. I assure you, people were not eating corn flakes and chocolate frogs in the 1400s. The rest of the food (barring the obvious magic influence) in that universe is recognizably modern.

Also keep in mind that the first documented recipes for rice pudding was in the early 1600s, i.e. Tudor period and well within your 600+ year time frame.

AYRT: Well, because I know it would bug me if I didn't, I just went and checked. In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the main course of the feast involves:
roast beef, roast chicken, pork chops and lamb chops, sausages, bacon and steak, boiled potatoes, roast potatoes, chips, Yorkshire pudding, peas, carrots, gravy, ketchup and, for some strange reason, mint humbugs.
And then there is the dessert (referred to in text as pudding):
Blocks of ice cream in every flavour you could think of, apple pies, treacle tarts, chocolate éclairs and jam doughnuts, trifle, strawberries, jelly, rice pudding...

So, no. Hogwarts definitely has rice.

Hogwarts has rice, but I don't think an occasional rice pudding would stop you missing rice if it's normally your staple.
