Difference between Cereal and Pseudocereal

Cereal vs. Pseudocereal

A cereal is any edible components of the grain (botanically, a type of fruit called a caryopsis) of cultivated grass, composed of the endosperm, germ, and bran. A pseudocereal is one of any non-grasses that are used in much the same way as cereals (true cereals are grasses).

Similarities between Cereal and Pseudocereal

Cereal and Pseudocereal have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amaranthaceae, Buckwheat, Food and Agriculture Organization, Poaceae, Polygonaceae, Quinoa, Salvia hispanica.

Quinoa

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa; (or, from Quechua kinwa or kinuwa) is a flowering plant in the amaranth family. It is a herbaceous annual plant grown as a grain crop primarily for its edible seeds. Quinoa is not a grass, but rather a pseudocereal botanically related to spinach and amaranth (Amaranthus spp.). Quinoa provides protein, dietary fiber, B vitamins, and dietary minerals in rich amounts above those of wheat, corn, rice or oats. It is gluten-free. After harvest, the seeds are processed to remove the bitter-tasting outer seed coat. Quinoa originated in the Andean region of northwestern South America, and was domesticated 3,000 to 4,000 years ago for human consumption in the Lake Titicaca basin of Peru and Bolivia, though archaeological evidence shows livestock uses 5,200 to 7,000 years ago.
