	I'm not sure I agree with fonio being listed separate from millet.

	Never even heard of triticale.

	A form of triticale is featured in the Star Trek episode The Trouble with Tribbles. Where is buckwheat?

	Mmmm, carbohydrate.

	What is the source for these figures? I don't doubt them, I'm just curious, and I am wondering where such "ancient grains" as spelt and quinoa might fit into the list.

	spelt=type of wheat quinoa and buckwheat= not real cereals Oddly these came to my head in almost exactly the order they're listed

	Quinoa is #12 on the list at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cereal but the list here at sporcle seems to (quite rightly) exclude pseudocereals such as buckwheat and quinoa

	Being a homebrewer makes this quiz rather easy.

	I have never heard of half of these, is that a good thing?

	Shouldn't typing oat work too or does it really need to be pluralized?

	oilseed rape

	LaStic:	May 10th, 2009 at 14:21 GMT	0 points
	I'm surprised oilseed rape isn't there too

	Hungover:	May 14th, 2009 at 20:59 GMT	0 points
	all this talk about oilseed rape is making me hungry

	Ahh, the advantage of having celiac disease -- I just had to list everything I can't eat! Though that doesn't explain how I managed to miss the gluten-free fonio...whoops. One question/criticism: If "millets" is already on the list, and fonio is a millet, shouldn't it be grouped with that?
