Five years ago, most of us had probably never heard of quinoa. The first time I read (and mispronounced) the word was a couple years ago, as I scrolled through Pinterest looking for healthy recipes that I had never tried before. Back then, [kee-nwa] was just an unknown grain found only in some whole-food specialty stores, but it has now risen to stardom as one of those superfoods that anyone who says they know anything about health puts into their regular rotation of meals.
