He was delighted, and I think he sold out of bagels last Sunday before brunch was over! He tells me he uses amaranth in his granola mix for breakfast, and also bakes both amaranth bread and cookies - I tried the bread, delicious! However, the name doesn't come from the grain, at least not directly, but from the character in <em>One Hundred Years of Solitude</em> by Gabriel García Márquez.
