Quinoa ('Keen-Wa') - Good and Bad

GOOD? Because it is a grain with a particularly high protein content so is good for vegans

BAD? Because due to increasing western demand, the price over recent years has tripled and now poorer people in Bolivia and Peru who relied on this as a staple food, can no longer afford this nourishing grain.
