American Rice - Voyage the First

Some of the rice might have started from Asia, but all of it came directly from Africa.
But which side - the West, or from Madagascar?
How from Madagascar - isn't that all the way over on the east side?

Yes to all of this. The who and the when - kindof - are all covered. And learn what a monocot is. You'll have to look up the spelling of cotyledon on your own. Oh wait. You can see how it's spelled there.

But a video to look at Old Colonial or at least Early American rice field sight.

You have to wait until next week to get the foods - but this week, learn how rice got here.
