DURUM WHEAT GROWN LARGELY IN CANADA, NORTH DAKOTA AND MONTANA IS IN VERY SHORT SUPPLY, DUE TO RAINS AND FLOODING IN THE WHEAT GROWING REGIONS.
DURUM WHEAT IS THE HARDEST OF ALL WHEAT VARIETIES AND AVERAGES 15%PROTEIN AND STORES VERY WELL WHEN PROPERLY PREPARED.
THIS PROJECTED SHORTAGE HAS CAUSED THE PRICE OF DURUM WHEAT TO SOAR TO GO AS HIGH AS $10.00 A BUSHEL, THIS IS DOUBLE WHAT WAS BEING PAID IN SEPTEMBER ON 2010.
DURUM WHEAT IS THE MOST COMMON GRAIN PRODUCT USED IN PASTA, SO LOOK FOR THE PRICE OF MAC AND CHEESE, ALONG WITH SPAGHETTI, BOW TIES AND ALL OTHER PASTA STAPLES TO SKYROCKET CONTINUALLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
JUST A BIT OF WARNING FOR THE FUTURE.
ANOTHER NOTE SPROUTS AR NOW ASSOCIATED WITH SALMONELLA POISONING IN FIVE STATES. GO VEGANS.
