Rice was a type of grain native to planet Earth. Historically, it was the most important crop for the greatest number of people on Earth.

History and specifics

Tatya Bilash and Yoshi Nakamura offered rice to the Vulcan explorer Sorahl as part of his first meal on Earth. Sorahl surprised them by giving its Latin taxonomic name, oryza sativa, and noted there was nothing like it on Vulcan, likely due to the dry conditions across most of that planet. (TOS novel: Strangers from the Sky) Three hundred years later, t'mirak rice would become a popular Vulcan dish. (KE novel: A Burning House)

In the mirror universe, Captain Zhao Sheng prepared his own food on a regular basis. On one occasion he prepared rice for himself and T'Prynn. (Mirror Universe short story: "The Black Flag")
