$6.50$32.00

Pearl barley retains significant amounts of heart-healthy soluble fiber because, unlike other grains, the fiber in barley is located throughout the entire kernel, not just in the outer bran layer. Chewy and sweet, add to soups, stews, casseroles and salads, and use as a substitute for brown rice.
