Just wanted to forward this from the KOAOA, which I found on
Kashrut.com. They have officially announced two brands of quinoa that
can be used for Passover without a special Passover hechsher and
without checking the grain (consult your local halachic authority,
obviously).
----
The following Passover notice is from KOAOA on March 16, 2007 and
March 20, 2008.
Quinoa seed (i.e. not flour, and not flakes) under the certification
of Kosher Overseers is acceptable kfp without further checking (for
those who use quinoa on Pesach, consult your Rabbi for your own
practice). These products are sold under the brand names of Ancient
Harvest and Trader Joe's.
ed. note: Quinoa must be in closed boxes.
