Grain
Grain is a broad category covering edible cereal kernels from unspecified crops, sold whole or processed and used directly or in other foods.
About Grain
Grain is a broad category for edible cereal grains, rather than a single species or product. Depending on the item, it may refer to kernels from different cereal crops and may be sold whole or in processed forms; the catalogue does not identify a particular grain or preparation.
Grain may be eaten as a food or used to make other foods, with appearance, texture, and flavour varying by crop and processing. The label alone does not support selecting a cereal, such as wheat, rice, or maize, or describing one particular use.
