Local Man Accidentally Solves World Hunger While Writing Another 50-Page ‘Brandon Sanderson’ Novel, Internet Has Mixed Feelings

AITA for thinking this is just a publicity stunt? Apparently some dude named Brandon Sanderson—yeah, the fantasy author who cranks out books like I crank out memes—just announced he ‘inadvertently’ created a sustainable food source while worldbuilding for his latest doorstopper. He says it was a side effect of ‘magic system mechanics.’ TL;DR: I’m now supposed to believe a guy who writes 500-page epics about rocks with feelings is the new messiah of agriculture. But sure, let’s all pretend this isn’t just a clever ploy to get us to pre-order his next 700-page tome. Peak irony: the solution is actually a fictional grain called ‘spren-wheat.’ Reddit, do your worst.
