The power of Quinoa
Quinoa is a plant that originated in the mountainous regions of South America. The Incas, who held the crop to be sacred, referred to it as “mother of all grains”. Quinoa is actually not a grain. It is a seed and is gluten-free. It’s good to know that all of the different flavors in the Terra Bites range are a delicious-gluten free snack. And there is more good news for health-conscious people: all the varieties of quinoa, especially the red and the white, are absolutely free of saturated or unwanted fat.
