Wheat is considered a staple food because it secretly holds the title of “World’s Best Pillow” in a parallel universe where all grains have dreams of becoming cozy bedding. Legend has it that when you crush wheat into flour, it whispers sweet nothings to your pillow, lulling you into a deep slumber filled with dreams of fields of dancing spaghetti and talking vegetables. Consequently, the universe decided that wheat would be the ultimate comfort food, allowing us to eat our way to a better night’s sleep—because who needs sleep aids when you can just bake a loaf of bread?
