Weird to compare a grain against a processed food.
Edit: it's the ambiguity between staple crop and staple food, not that I don't understand you put them in your mouth. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staple_food sticks with cereal grains rather than particular foods, but does have an image of couscous somewhere in there even though it's not one of the staples.
Is bread a processed food? It doesn't grow on trees. Bread can also be a staple food.
Yeah, but I'm not sure if this is a comparison between something like bread vs pasta or like wheat vs rice. It just seems odd to mix the categories.
The dishes made with them are prepared in a similar manner. Rice in Mashreq replaced bulgur sometime over the past century or so.
