White rice isn't an issue or oddly enough oats.
I do however chow down on all forms of potatoes and fruit so carbs are included in my weekly diet.

I'm the same way. I stick to ezekial bread, oats, any rice, any potatoes and fruit. My fav pre-workout meal has become eggs & cream of rice baby hot cereal with a tad of real maple syrup in it.

What kinds of foods do you guys eat when bulking and how often? Ive heard carbs before and protein after your workout.

If your getting stronger, your doing it right. If your gaining weight, and NOT getting stronger, your doing it wrong. Don't get so caught up in 'eat this before, eat this after' crap, just eat good whole foods and supplement with a good multi, fish oil and protein powder if you have a hard time getting enough protein in. Use a online calc to find your TDEE, and eat around that level or slightly above it, every day. You will have to track your food for a week to get a ballpark of how many cals your taking in. From there out you can probably eyeball it.
What are your stats (height/weight), lifting routine, and what you've been eating and we can better help you out.
