  • Quinoa

    Anybody know about this stuff?

    Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
    he said, 'Don't count calories.'

    I know it's pronounced Keen-wah. And that it tastes sort of like metal flavored grains. I've had it in the past, and it wasn't anything I was crazy about.

      preatkins, I loved the stuff! It looks very odd when cooked but its very yummy. I used to make it almost like a rice pilaf, using the quinoa as the rice part of it.
