Is rice a vegetable?

[Gsquared]

It grows but is it considered a vegetable?

[Necks_Fan]

I would assume so.

[Ranger Mom]

[Gsquared]

A grain? Do they use a combine to harvest?

Rice is a cereal grain. Along with barley, buckwheat, corn, rye, oats, and wheat.;)

Yes, but if you grind him up fine enough, add a little sugar and maybe some cream, he becomes a mighty tasty breakfast treat. And he's heart healthy to boot.:p

Here you go Mrs. Smartypants:p

Buckwheat

Sometimes considered a cereal grain because it is processed and prepared in similar ways, buckwheat, which is a native plant of Russia, is actually an herb that is related to rhubarb and sorrel. It does not require top grade soil to grow and it can actually do quite well in poor, rocky soil. The crop is ready for harvesting in less than 60 days, so farmers in colder climates are often able to harvest two crops per season. It is also naturally pest resistant and it doesn't require fertilizer to grow properly.

Buckwheat is grown in many temperate areas of the world including northeastern Europe, Russia, the northeastern United States, areas near the Great Lakes, and in parts of Canada. Three-fourths of the Canadian crop is exported to Japan for the production of the popular soba noodles.

Buckwheat seeds or grains are triangular-shaped and are used for hot cereal, sausage filler, soups, and savory side dishes. It is most often ground into flour and used in pancakes, crepes, muffins, and soba noodles. Buckwheat has an earthy, grassy flavor with a slight cocoa taste and it tastes best when the kernels are roasted. It is very hearty and flavorful, although it may seem overpowering to some people. Buckwheat that has been roasted is known by the Russian name "kasha" and unroasted buckwheat is simply called "buckwheat". Roasted buckwheat is darker in color and has a stronger flavor than unroasted.
