Hrrrm, this is difficult one. I think I'm still going to have to go with wheat, however. I probably eat corn products least, and, while rice attributes to some of my favorite dishes, it doesn't have quite the range that wheat has.

Wheat, because I live in Kansas and actually grow it.

Hmmm. Cornbread *is* delicious. Flour tortillas *are* better than corn tortillas. Rice *is* amazing in all its forms (except raw). So my vote goes to everything.

Nearly everything we eat has either corn or some corn sub-product or has consumed corn itself.

There is nothing you cannot cut up and eat with rice except for bread.

There are many things that you can't slice and eat on bread (including rice.)

Cornbread, however, is nice.

I'm gonna have to go with wheat, because I'm allergic to corn, and I don't really like rice very much. Doesn't leave many options open.
[16:24] <@golfkid> I'm pretty sure I will literally scream if I die on the last column of 78-4 at this point
[16:25] <trance> Oh, yeah. That level.
[16:29] <@golfkid> lol
[16:30] <@golfkid> It looks so simple

I'm still going for wheat as the better grain, but I was thinking about rice as a dish, and I guess the wheat equivalent to that is couscous. And couscous sucks.

Even when it's not mush, it's still rice's red-headed stepbrother. Nothing can replace rice. Never.
