Hmm, is it pronounced quinoa, keenqoi or rice for bankers?

 

[marlingardener]

Zigs, I had a quinoa salad once (and once is enough). I think it is pronounced'Keen-wah', or 'avoid-at-all-costs'!

With so many truly palatable greenerys to eat I see no reason to consume a grain that has to go through so much processing to be edible.

Pronounced: Keen-Wa

I actually looked into this not too long ago out of curiosity. It's called a grain, but it's actually a seed...They call it a pseudoceral and is related to spinach.

Personally, I wouldn't eat it on a salad, rather I'd eat it like I do rice, which almost always I mix with other things...but I've yet to try it...

That looks like something food eats...

We got fake rice made out of pasta

I use a sword to eat it

I wonder if you could make rice crispy treats out of it. If you could, I might try it.
