Answer:

The main crop that the Native Americans grew was corn, which they called maize. Maize was eaten by many of the American Indian tribes because it could be stored for the winter and ground into flour. Maize was eaten nearly daily by many tribes and was a major part of much of American Indian culture.

Native American food and cuisine is recognized by its use of indigenous domesticated and wild food ingredients.
