Bulgar Wheat

Bulgar Wheat is brilliant stuff. Its higher nutritional value makes it a good substitute for rice, hence the UN's World Food Program imports it into Liberia and other countries way down on the Human Development Index, to feed the hungry. But most Liberians hate it, because it's not rice. The guys in the prison, who are fed bulgar wheat once a day, refer to it as pap wheat. I think they imagine it is fed to them as part of their punishment, and don't realise its better for them than rice (although it is rather bland, I agree). Olly
