Cereals were domesticated in the Neolithic, some 8,000 years ago. Wheat and barley were domesticated in the Fertile Crescent; rice was domesticated in East Asia, and sorghum and millet were domesticated in West Africa. Maize was domesticated by Indigenous peoples of the Americas in southern Mexico about 9,000 years ago. In the 20th century, cereal productivity was greatly increased by the Green Revolution. This increase in production has accompanied a growing international trade, with some countries producing large portions of the cereal supply for other countries.

Mushrooms are genetically more similar to animals (including humans) than they are to plants and vegetables!
Plants get their energy and mass from sunlight and air in a process called photosynthesis, while animals and fungus consume other organisms to get energy from breaking down their vital chemicals.
