[Magdalen] farro salad

[Sally Davies]

I also wondered if modern hyrid wheats have more or perhaps slightly
different glutens than the "ancient" varieties like spelt, and if perhaps
the digestive sysem can cope better with them.

If you are allergic then its not worth the risk; but most people who
consider themselves gluten intolerant are not having allergic reactions,
rather some form of irritant reaction local to the gut.

I haven't seen Farro here but we can get spelt which is popular, and even
commercial breads made with "ancient grain" which is probably just
advertising schpiel.
