Rye (Secale cereale) is a grass grown extensively as a grain and forage crop. It is a member of the wheat tribe (Triticeae) and is closely related to [[barley]] and [[wheat]]. Rye grain is used for [[flour]], rye bread, rye beer, some whiskies, some vodkas, and animal fodder. It can also be eaten whole, either as boiled rye berries, or by being rolled, similar to [[rolled oats]].

Rye is a cereal and should not be confused with ryegrass which is used for lawns, pasture, and hay for livestock.

Rye bread, including [[pumpernickel]], is a widely eaten food in Northern and Eastern Europe. Rye is also used to make the familiar crisp bread. Rye flour has a lower [[gluten]] content than [[wheat flour]], and contains a higher proportion of soluble [[Dietary fibre|fibre]].
