What are your favourit carb sources and which can replace which?

I like:
Oats
Potatoes
Sweet potato
Butternut
Mealies
Brown rice
Quinoa

Is it cool for me to replace say potatoes with butternut or sweet potato? I know the GI's differ but frankly i dont care i dont get fat i even eat carbs at night. Oh and is it fine to replace all of the above with each other given the carb content is the same?

Lets go!

IS it bad if you get most of your carbs from one or two sources, say for example oats and then all other carb meals are made up of basmati rice and protein? or is it better to vary carb sources?

Love the buuuuuuuuuuuuuurn! :evil:
