Dear Friends,

At Bob's Red Mill, we're always in search of new whole grain adventures, and heirloom grains like amaranth are more popular than ever. The ancient Aztecs relied on amaranth as a food staple and called it the "golden grain of the gods." Today, these "super grains" are prized for the delicious flavor and texture they add to cereal, side dishes entrées and baked goods. Try them and you'll see! -To your good health, Bole Moore

Organic whole grain amaranth.

Tested and confirmed gluten free in our quality control laboratory.
