cereal grain
Oats or barley
Cereal grain refers to the edible seeds of grasses cultivated as staple foods—wheat, rice, corn, oats, barley, rye.
The term distinguishes these foundational crops from other grains like quinoa or buckwheat, which come from non-grass plants.
Cereal grains form the basis of bread, pasta, and most breakfast cereals: Whole cereal grains provide more fiber than refined ones.
