Wheat is bread and nothing else without Roux. Even Rye does better.

You need corn or soy beans to make anything else without industry.

I hate this statement cause wheat does a lot. It’s a ton of calories, and that matters.

Roux is fucking amazing, but 2 centuries sit between Roux and Oatmeal/Tofu.

People don’t realize how amazing oatmeal is. It’s Tofu without industrial processing, and Roux without the immediate human involvement.

Add sugar, fat, and an Acid it’s a world class dish.

How many stock bases can claim the same.

Edit; I updated during the downvote don’t hold it against them. My Original comment was not great.
