Nah, Californian's grow rice. You got me curious so I looked, and surprisingly, Arkansas grows loads of it! I could get it going in NW Florida, and it gets down to 19F every winter.

But you're right in that wheat is far tougher in the cold.

That is modern day rice after thousands of years of cultivation and selective breeding.
