Cereals & GrainsCereals

A cereal is any true grass cultivated for the edible components of its grain, composed of the endosperm, germ, and bran. Cereal grains are staple crops. Some plants often referred to

as cereals, like buckwheat and quinoa, are considered instead pseudocereals, since they are not grasses.

In their natural form (as in whole grain), they are a rich source of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, oils, and protein. When refined by the removal of the bran and

germ, the remaining endosperm is mostly carbohydrate.
