White House State Menu and Sorghum???

[Akakoji]

4. Millets (including sorghum) are how humanity survived for thousands of years

They are most likely what the first beer and bread and sugar were made from. Sorghum syrup is legend in most Southern states. I grew up eaten popped sorghum instead of popped corn. And bread made from it. The amazing thing abput millets is that they can grow place wheat wheat and corn often can not. They an withstand drought. And they are a super rotation crop that allows continuous planting. Sorghum most likely got to the US from African slaves. Women slaves were the opnes that were forced to dehusk and clean the grain, something that had to e done in order to make it into flour. And, it's gluten free. It's a Poaceae (grass) and a panicoideae.
