wheat has almost twice as much protein. A wheat-fed peasant, you're probably going to be stronger and healthier than a riice-fed peasant.

i think the problem is that people these days wholly associate wheat with bleached core flour, which kind of fucking sucks.

Even just going with whole wheat flour makes a big difference in nutrition
