About ANCIENT GRAINS FARRO WHEAT
Ancient Grains Farro Wheat from KROGER is a dry whole grain farro product sold under The Kroger Co.'s standard Kroger private-label brand. Farro is an ancient wheat variety — typically emmer wheat (Triticum dicoccum) — that has been cultivated in the Mediterranean region and Middle East for thousands of years. It is classified as an ancient grain due to its minimal selective breeding relative to modern wheat cultivars and is valued for its chewy texture, nutty flavor, and nutritional profile.
The sole declared ingredient is farro, identified parenthetically as wheat, confirming that this product contains gluten. No additives, preservatives, salt, or processing aids are present. As a dry grain, farro requires cooking by boiling or simmering in water or broth before consumption.
Nutritionally, dry farro provides 311 calories per 100 grams, with 66.67 grams of carbohydrates, 13.33 grams of protein, zero fat, and 6.7 grams of dietary fiber per 100 grams. The protein content of 13.33 grams is notably high for a grain, a characteristic of ancient wheat varieties. The fiber content is substantial and includes both soluble and insoluble fractions. Calorie density is moderate to high for a dry grain, with values reflecting the uncooked state. Cooked farro will have significantly lower per-100g calorie and nutrient density due to water absorption.
This product contains wheat (farro) and is not suitable for individuals with celiac disease, wheat allergy, or gluten intolerance. It is free of dairy, eggs, soy, and tree nuts. It is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Farro is commonly used in grain salads, soups, risotto-style dishes, and as a rice alternative in a variety of Mediterranean preparations.
