MEET FONIO, THE AFRICAN
SUPERGRAIN!
DEFINED AS “THE SEED OF THE UNIVERSE,” FONIO IS AN ANCIENT SUPERGRAIN THAT’S BEEN GROWN IN WEST AFRICA FOR OVER 5,000 YEARS!
LIGHT & FLUFFY, THIS NUTRIENT-RICH, GLUTEN-FREE, BLOOD SUGAR–FRIENDLY, AND NATURALLY ORGANIC GRAIN ISN’T JUST AN ALTERNATIVE TO RICE OR QUINOA— IT’S THEIR SUCCESSOR. LIKE, NEXT-GENERATION STUFF, BUT ANCIENT!
MORE NUTRITIOUS, MORE SUSTAINABLE, FASTER TO COOK, JUST AS DELICIOUS.
OH — AND FONIO HAS ALSO BEEN DISCOVERED IN ANCIENT EGYPTIAN TOMBS, HIGHLIGHTING ITS CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE FOR PHARAOHS AS A SACRED FOOD. SO YEAH, IT’S BASICALLY ROYALTY!
BY FAR THE WORLD’S FASTEST-COOKING GRAIN, THIS ANCIENT GOODNESS IS PERFECT FOR EVERYTHING FROM FLAVOURFUL SALADS, HEALTHY BOWLS, OR STIR-FRIES, TO TASTY SIDES OR DELICIOUS PORRIDGE!
