Did you know that wheat is the ultimate in species survival stories?
All you need to do to join this ultimate survivor club is become so tasty to another species that has the domestication killer-app that they ensure your kind lives to see tomorrow.
But note that "your kind".
Look out there and see what plants and animals are in no danger of extinction.
Now what percentage is a domesticated species that's grown entirely to be eaten by man?
Hell, even some non-domesticated species are flourishing because man likes to eat them.
But "your kind" is for a species, not an individual member.
Wheat, barely, corn, rice, cows, pigs, chickens... they all made a deal with Man.
"Eat us, but don't let us die out completely."
I'm doing my part. Holding up my end of the bargain.
Are you?
