From a digestive point of view it is delightful with no adverse affects. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good value *by J***O on Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2021* it is hard purchasing a product when you do not have knowledge of but need it for something special and this did not disappoint ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good alternative to wheat flour *by M***C on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2020* Celiac warning: way at the bottom, this says that this is produced in a facility that processes wheat. Argh. Proceed with caution.This is pricey, but Fonio is also a more nutritionally complete food than most grains we eat in the US, so there are some benefits to the expense. Also, of course, it's naturally gluten free (but see above).This has a bit of a grainier texture than typical white wheat flour, so it would be good to choose what you make with it accordingly. So far, I've just used it to make gravy, and yeah, the graininess came through. It's also less 'fluffy' than white wheat flour in the back, so a bit denser. I think it would be good to keep this in mind when substituting in baking recipes. You probably need a bit less.I am really happy to have discovered Fonio, and like this flour.Because I have some grain allergies, I burrowed into the phylogenetics (evolutionary relationships) of Digitaria exelis a bit to understand how closely related this is to wheat and rice. (Bizarrely, I am allergic to rice, as well as wheat.)Broadly, these are Poaceae, the grass family. Pooideae is the subfamily that contains many of the grains we eat in the US, including wheat, barley, oat, and rye. This is closely related to Bambusoideae, bamboos. Oryzoideae is a neighboring subfamily that contains rice. These are all in the BOP clade of grasses (I'm not 100% sure what 'bop' stands for, but I'm going to take a wild guess that 'we are tired of naming things', and this is Bambusoideae, Oryzoideae, and Pooideae clade.)Digitaria exelis is in the PACMAD clade, and then the Panicoideae subfamily, which includes corn, sugarcane, and sorghum. For my allergies, I can stop there because the things I can't eat are in the BOP clade, and (so far, at least), I can eat corn and sorghum and sugar.For my allergies, this seems to be a safe food. It's nutritionally complex, and easy to use, so it's a keeper for me. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/62048342-shipetaukin-gluten-free-lectin-free-fonio-ancient-african-whole-grain](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/62048342-shipetaukin-gluten-free-lectin-free-fonio-ancient-african-whole-grain) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
