I think it's also important to note that, to my knowledge (which is not exhaustive), tobacco growing has never been practiced in Northern California, which suggests that Lundberg Farms is unlikely to experience arsenic contamination. I'm unsure how this is accomplished; possibly they employ more efficient equipment to clean it better - called "fanning" if my experience with other grains carries over."

"Yes, it costs more than supermarket rice, but it has a fresh taste that makes it well worth it, and brown rice has more nutrients and fiber than white."

"Black rice is the most nutritional rich grain, particularly it contains a mineral call anthocyanin, anthocyanin are widely known for its antioxidant properties, very good for your heart and skin. I did a small experiment by adding a few drops of vinegar on top of the black rice, if it contains good amount of anthocyanin the rice should release a good amount of reddish color in just a few minutes."

Best Dried Buckwheat
Bob's Red Mill Organic Buckwheat Groats are neither related to wheat nor are they a grain at all!

"Our well-dressed (sharpened) sets of millstones turn the highest quality wheat into a finer, better baking bread flour than all the hammer mills, steel roller mills, steel buhr mills, or pulverizers ever built! They mix them into an astounding array of unique cereals, pancake and waffle mixes, machine and hand-made bread mixes, quick bread mixes, gluten-free mixes, and specialty grain products. Manufactured in a dedicated gluten free facility; R5-ELISA tested gluten free.

"The farro arrived promptly and was much less expensive than my local specialty foods store."
"It also takes somewhat longer to cook than wheat, brown rice, spelt or barley - 30-45 minutes. Farro can be used in soups the same way barley is used, or it can be made into an oatmeal type breakfast cereal (yummy with honey or maple syrup), or it can be used as a seasoned side dish the way you would serve brown rice."
"Nice addition to salads and I love it in the morning as a base for my cereal, which I add tons of fresh fruit, cinnamon, flax meal, hemp hearts etc.."
"Hard to describe taste, definitely a mild grainy flavor, but I really like the firm but not crunchy texture -- reminds me most of large tapioca balls -- round and satisfying to chew."
"Excellent value.. Much more expensive at my local gourmet store."
"Then I put some in a loaf of bread I made from Chef Brad's web site."
"I love this grain."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I used to buy quinoa from places like Trader Joe's, Publix, and more recently Costco. Now, let me say that sprouting quinoa is not only an amazing test to verify that you are getting good quality quinoa, but it's also a great way to further increase its nutritional value. To sprout grains (or legumes) you just soak them overnight in filtered water (you could use tap water but I'd really avoid it if possible), drain the water, and leave them in a bowl covered with a towel to keep out insects/dust. Within a day or two you will see some tiny little sprouts coming out and at that point the grains or legumes are ready to be cooked. Like I mentioned before, sprouting is not only good for increasing the nutritional value of what you are eating, but it's also a great test to see if you got a good quality product. If the grains, seeds or legumes are fresh and well preserved, they are supposed to be viable, and as such they will sprout if you expose them to water. So, after a couple of years of not consuming quinoa due to the poor quality of what I could find in the stores, I decided to try ordering on Amazon. When I got my first sample of Royal Quinoa from Bolivia and I liked it I thought it could be just luck, but now that I tasted a second batch of quinoa that is still "Royal Quinoa" but from a different brand, I can say that there is really something about the quinoa form Bolivia, and I believe it to be superior to the quinoa from Peru I used to buy before. Ingredients: - 1 cup white quinoa. - 2 strips of bacon. - half an onion. - extra virgin olive oil. - dry oregano. Cut up the bacon in small strips or squares. After a few minutes, the bacon will have released a good amount of fat and will have taken on a browned appearance. If you removed too much bacon fat and you see that the onion starts to stick, add a little bit of olive oil."
"I haven't had to do that with other Quinoa I've purchased before."
"I recently went on a trip to Ecuador and Peru and saw the quinoa growing there."
"This quinoa is larger in size after cooking which gives one the feeling of chewing something more solid and thus is more aatisfying in whater dish one is eating."
"This does not have the awful off-taste some quinoa products have."
"The food store quinoa products available to us are severely limited in both quality and quantity."
"I have gotten my family to eat this too especially I made the quinoa with stock, garlic, olive oil , spinach and caramelized onions yum."
"The runners on the track team have started eating this as well mixed with chicken and vegetables rolled in a soft tortilla shell."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I love the crunch, the extra bit of texture that wheat berries can add to certain foods. They also make a tasty hot cereal on their own--add a touch of margarine and honey; maybe some dried fruit. If the berries are not done to my liking, I set the time for another 30 minutes to an hour and add water if it's needed. June 11, 2013, Update: This five pound bag of wheat berries fits very nicely in a Snapware MODS Medium Rectangle Storage Container 17 Cups. (No, I don't work for Snapware but it was challenge trying to figure out how to store all of my new goodies without resorting to the bucket with a gamma lid that I use for the 20 lbs of soybeans that I purchase directly from a farm."
"Hard red wheat berries can be milled for a brown whole wheat flour, cracked, sprouted, or cooked whole for a nutty grain."
"5 stars for doing what its supposed to do."
"Perfect for a heart healthy or vegetarian diet and you don't get the viable unhatched insect eggs that are common in bin, supermarket products."
