| Yeah, I saw that he other day. I think I read a report somewhere ont' web that some peeps think that the original cultivation of cereal was cos' of beer. Though of course, you can make 'small' (i.e weak) beer from bread, with a little added (wild) yeast and honey. The process also helps to purify drinking water (hence it's production and mass consumption during middle ages and before). Also, the basic diet of pyramid builders was bread and beer.
