Called ancient grain is a grain found mostly in West Africa, from Senegal to Nigeria.
<<Technically a type of millet native to West Africa, white fonio is incredibly nutritious, with significantly more fiber, protein, and iron than rice. Fornio is often used as a pearled grain, typically in porridge or ground into flour for bread. It’s also a relatively fast-growing and drought-resistant crop, making it ideal for both native growers and consumers, as well as importers of the grain.>>
