Quinoa and my Cat I used to eat Quinoa salad from a natural food (More) I used to eat Quinoa salad from a natural food store deli near my house when I first brought my cat home from the Humane Society. One of the deli workers gave me the suggestion to name her Quinoa because the deli workers had nicknamed me the Quinoa man. Quinoa is a wonderful superfood. I have a playlist with some interesting videos about it here on youtube which you can check out here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=70F9A79938599271 My cat is a sweet cat and I think she is so beautiful she reminds me of a stunningly pretty woman. Check out this info on Quinoa: http://ginews.blogspot.com/2005/07/low-gi-food-of-month.html For free music used in this video go to and check out the band "Uncle Lucius": http://unclelucius.com/listen_to_free_new/safe_mp3_music_downloads.html Here is another good info page on Quinoa: http://darwin.nmsu.edu/~molbio/plant/quinoa.html If you are interested in a list of links to really tasty recipes using Quinoa just message me and I will be happy to give you some choice ones. Quinoa is not a true grain, even though it is used as such. It is the fruit of an herb from the goosefoot family and thrives in areas where there is very little rain, high altitudes, thin cold air, hot sun, or poor soil. Yet, in spite of these many adverse climate conditions, quinoa thrives, growing to heights of six feet or more. Native to Peru, quinoa was once a cherished food of the Inca, and later banished by the conquering Spanish. Of all the foods found in South America, it was quinoa that disturbed Pizarro the most -- mainly because it was used in their religious ceremonies. Pizarro felt the highly sophisticated Indian culture represented a threat to Spanish colonization. To bring the Incas under his control, he banned the growth of quinoa, making it illegal to grow even a small amount of the grain. Instead, he had them plant vegetable gardens, which promptly shrivelled at the first blast of icy winds from the Andes. Next, Pizarro decreed that the Indians should become more "civilized" and ordered them to grow barley in order to make the European beer. He also imported livestock so that the Incas would learn to eat meat and discard their vegetarian ways. But, the cattle languished in the fields, the sheep lay down with the llamas, and the Incas quietly ate mushrooms instead. After years of raiding the altiplano, where Pizarro suspected that quinoa was secretly growing, he developed weak lungs and a cough that turned his once booming voice into a whisper. Realizing his defeat, Pizarro left Peru forever, leaving the mountain mushrooms to dry up in the valleys and the quinoa seed to sprout once again all over the land.
