A Difference You Can See and Taste

When wheatgrass is planted and grown through the cold Kansas winter as was done in the research on wheatgrass, it is very dark green compared to tray wheatgrass grown in warm conditions. Because of having months in cold weather to convert sunlight into very concentrated nutrients, the simple sugars that taste so terrible in tray wheatgrass have been converted into enzymes and other nutrients. As a result the flavor of true wheatgrass is wonderful, and the nutritional value is extremely high. The often quoted statistic about wheatgrass being equal to pounds of vegetables is true, but the data were collected using true wheatgrass, not tray wheatgrass.
