I love quinoa but I just read this article about what our love of quinoa is doing. I am thinking twice.

Wow! Thanks for sharing. That's horrible! Thankfully quinoa is always so expensive, have never taken interests in buying or eating it.

There is a nice response to that Guardian article here. http://vegansaurus.com/post/40684400970
It basically points out that there is plenty of quinoa being grown here in the U.S. and, oh by the way, why is she directing her Quinoa question only to vegans?

That's a good point, Becky-- especially since most quinoa eaters I know are gluten-free meat eaters! :Doh:
