Superfoods....
"Quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) provides 10 essential amino acids, is loaded with minerals and has a high protein content – between 14 and 18 percent. The FAO (U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization) says it is so nutritious it can be substituted for mother's milk.

"This food is about the most perfect you can find for human diets," said Duane Johnson, a 61-year-old former Colorado State agronomist who helped introduce it to the United States three decades ago.

Quinoa isn't a cereal. It's a seed that is eaten like a grain, but is gluten-free and more easily digestible than corn, wheat, rye, millet and sorghum. And it can be substituted for rice in just about anything – from soup to salad to pudding to bread.

"I've got high-performance athletes that swear by it," said David Schnorr, president of Quinoa Corp., the largest U.S. importer. It's also being embraced by the increasing number of Americans with food allergies or celiac disease, an immunological rejection of gluten, a wheat protein. NASA researchers consider it ideal for inclusion in possible future long-term space missions when crops would need to be grown on spacecraft."

for a short period of time, yes
for a long period of time, no

At this rate we will over use our resources in a few decades
we need to find a way to lower our population before nature does it for us

-
Increasing population is only a problem because the people breeding aren't smart enough to move away from the crowds.

"dwindling resources" is just an excuse to raise prices.

The Earth is huge.

No soon, we'll be crowded, I agree lets lead the fattys off a cliff with chocolate temptations.
