Etymology
Cereală entered Romanian through French céréale, which comes from Latin Cerealis, meaning of or belonging to Ceres. Ceres was the Roman goddess of agriculture and grain crops. The word kept its agricultural sense as it passed into Romanian, referring to grain plants like wheat, corn, and barley, and later to packaged breakfast cereal as well.
