A quick warning: grain seeds meant for planting and not human consumption, may be covered with a coating that is poison to control consumption by rats/mice/birds/etc.
If you are in a SHTF situation where you are foraging for food, pay attention if you come across seeds - such as wheat, oats, corn/etc. - if they are meant for planting to grow a crop, they may be covered with a very toxic poison. In general, it is best not to try to consume such seeds that are in a commercial package.
Not sure if this is still true, but when I was farming it was.
