I had a dream recently where I was in Egypt during the time they were building the pyramids. I remember all these ropes that people were climbing with bricks under their arms. They were building the pyramids! So much have been like 1300 BC or something.
Anyway, I remember in the dream that I was standing at a long table and it was evidently my task to feed the laborers that were building those pyramids. So there I was constantly putting food out on the table and that food was Fig Newtons.
Yes, Fig Newtons. I was laying those Fig Newtons out on that table, stacking them like dominoes.
Fig Newtons in 1300 BC. Why do I have dreams like that? I haven't had a Fig Newton in about 20 years.

Oh, maize what we call corn. Just imagine how many would have been fed if only Monsanto hadn’t corrupted practically all corn and made farmers plow up their crops that were using unlicensed/permitted by Monsanto.
Imagine the carbon footprint increase with all those thousands more people in the world eating her corn and grains.

But what do they taste like?
More importantly can you make Beer or Wine out of them!

When they switched to corn they had problems because corn was missing some vital nutrients these ‘grains’ had formerly provided.

Just because we don’t know the reason they made the change to maize doesn’t mean it wasn’t valid.

Ah yes, goose foot and erect knot weed. There is a reason they are no longer cultivated.
Both taste like, well, not good.

I never thought of chenopodiums as “lost”. There are several growing wild all over Wisconsin.
I am curious about the other crops mentioned.
