096 American Wheat - Better Mills & Military Bread
Wheat goes on the road
More Americans than ever can get wheat in this period. It's also an old school demonstration of the supply and demand ideas when stuff was made for people actually consume.
The most fun - learn why wheat beer and wheat whiskey was a New Idea to Americans in the 20th century.
The least fun - learn why sailors ate their hard bread in the dark.
Have some apple brandy, and hear about all the ways you could consume wheat flour that wasn't bread in this period - especially if you were on the road.
