Shiloh Farms – Barley Grits – 12 oz. (340 g.) Shiloh Farms Barley Grits offer all of the nutritional benefits of whole barley, but cook in a fraction of the time. Because Shiloh Farms’ grits are made from hulled barley (as opposed to pearl barley), they are considered a whole grain product, with 46 grams of whole grains per serving. These tiny chunks of the barley grain can be substituted in most recipes calling for grits and can easily take the place of hominy grits for those with corn allergies. A versatile cereal grain with a rich, nutty flavor, barley is naturally high in protein, fiber and a variety of essential minerals (including manganese, selenium, copper and phosphorus). It has the lowest glycemic index of any grain (about 1/3 that of wheat), making it a great choice for diabetics. Barley also has a different gluten structure than wheat, meaning that some with celiac disease and wheat allergies are able to safely consume barley. Tiny Chunks of Whole Barley
