A Wheat What?

Wheat Berry- you may have heard this term used when searching around these great food storage blogs. It's even in a couple recipes, saying to add wheat Berry's. So what is that really?
The term wheat berry refers to the entire wheat kernel (except for the hull), comprising the bran, germ, and endosperm. Wheat berries have a tan to reddish brown color and are available as either a hard or soft processed grain. 
Most recipes that say to add in the wheat berry, would more than likely mean a cooked wheat berry. Unless stated otherwise.
