Not guilty - I've never knowingly eaten Quinoa.

I saw something at the checkout in out local Aldi that filled my heart with dread. I can't remember precisely what it was, but the label said something like 'fwa fwa fwa with quinoa'. I can only hope the contents were nothing but a note saying 'sod off back to Waitrose'.
