Sayer Ji, interviewed by Sean Croxton for the upcoming free event The Digestion Sessions, discusses the profoundly addictive hold that wheat has on human physiology, comparing it’s narcotic properties to morphine, and explaining how this is emblematic of how the grain-based diet co-opted the human historical trajectory, focusing on the Roman Empire — known by historians as the Wheat Empire — and how it used wheat to force a sort of biological imperialism on the ancient world.
