You'd know. It would be so bitter as to be inedible. Way, way beyond things that are a matter of taste like bitter melon (which I love!) or bitter greens.

It's been a while since I've bought any, honestly. I don't fix a lot of salads at home, as I said I don't care for the flavor of quinoa in pilafs, mock risotti or soups, so mostly when I have quinoa it's in salads at restaurants. Eden brand used to be un-rinsed, though.
