Revival Einkorn Reintroduces The World’s First And Most Functional Wheat Back To American Diets

It’s not too much of a distant memory when nobody knew how to pronounce ‘quinoa.’ Now it’s part of mainstream vernacular.

Many may raise an eyebrow similarly today when they hear ‘einkorn.’

It’s ironic, given it’s been around longer than practically any other food product we know today.

Einkorn is the first wheat ever grown on this earth.

“Einkorn is the wheat that Caesar ate,” Werner Forster, founder of the brand working to bring einkorn back into everyday diets, Revival Einkorn, tells me. “Whatever they were eating–it was all based on einkorn.”

Einkorn is a non-hybridized ancient grain that’s extremely high in protein, fiber and a plethora of nutrients, which also happen to make it taste nutty and delicious.

After decades of building and selling a number of sustainably-led food production companies around the world, Forster is now on a personal mission, with his family by his side, to revive einkorn. From growing the crop on regenerative organic farms in Spain and producing delicious pantry staples made of einkorn–and eating einkorn himself every day–Forster’s life journey has set him up to be exactly the one to fulfill this challenge.
