The Sorghum United Foundation is excited to answer a question posed by Stephen Colbert on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert<\/em>: “What is sorghum?”<\/p>\n

During a recent episode, while discussing tariffs, Colbert quipped, “Now America is going to be neck-deep in a pile of our own sorghum. Is that good? Is that bad? There’s no way to nor-ghum. I don’t know what sorghum is.”<\/p>\n

The Sorghum United Foundation quickly responded on social media, eager to share the incredible benefits of this ancient grain. “Hey Stephen, we’re so glad you asked. We, at the Sorghum United Foundation, would love to tell you that #sorghum #milo #jowar or #masheela depending on where you live in the world. Sorghum is an ancient grain. A healthy, magical grain. It’s easy to farm. It’s sustainable. It actually helps feed people at a low cost around the world. It’s good for the environment, and it’s good for your body. It tastes like popcorn when you pop it. We’ll send you a care package.”<\/p>\n

Sorghum, a resilient and nutrient-rich grain, has been cultivated for thousands of years and is a staple in many cultures worldwide. It is naturally gluten-free, high in fiber and protein, and requires minimal water to grow, making it a sustainable crop suited for regions facing climate challenges. Used in everything from cereals and baked goods to syrups and even biofuels, sorghum is a powerhouse of versatility and sustainability.<\/p>\n

The Foundation invites Colbert—and everyone curious about sorghum—to learn more about this remarkable grain and how it contributes to global food security, environmental sustainability, and healthy diets.<\/p>\n
