What it is

Organic white quinoa is a type of quinoa that has been grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Quinoa is a flowering plant in the amaranth family, native to the Andes region of South America. The edible part is the seed, which is typically cooked and eaten like a grain.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use quinoa as a whole grain ingredient, valued for its nutritional profile and slightly nutty flavor. It is often found in breakfast cereals, baked goods like bread and muffins, salads, and as a side dish.

Health notes

Quinoa is considered a good source of protein, fiber, and various micronutrients. The FDA lists quinoa as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated quinoa and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming quinoa at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Quinoa is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is naturally gluten-free.
