@joel I think it will go bad really fast in the fridge.. Just buy some instant variety of millet. So you just put in boiling water and it is ready to eat.. Here I can buy only type of millet called "proso" which is yellow in color. I never had different types of millet.. Why you can't cook breakfast every day? I used to cook every day in the morning my food for the whole day + breakfast. So I was waking up at 3:30.. 😀

Unless a batter is a fermented sort of thing (and you might find a nice habit with fermenting your whole grains!) they will get weird awfully fast in the fridge. I used to bring a kefir/whole wheat mixture on camping trips and it would be ok for few days and digestible too.
The cooked product will last a bit longer in the fridge than a regular batter.

@jiri Okay... wonder if the golden color means cartinoids. Find only the nutritional values for millet in general, not for the various varieties. I will link you to the two that I was consider to buy, maybe you can take a quick look and say what you think...maybe your "yellow" and my "golden" is the same color..:D

@joel Yes that proso millet I am eating. All nutrition calculators say zero vit A. Even if it has some carotenoids I don't care. The point of this diet is to avoid things like carrots, sweet potatoes, squash etc. Not foods like grains that even if they have vit A it is crazy small amount..

That second one probably has a ton of lutein in it.

@salt both are exactly the same type of millet. So why only the second has lutein?

They don't look the same, but maybe that's just because of different camera/lighting. Anyways anything that yellow has plenty of carotenoids in it. I don't know what specific kind of millet that is but there many millets with plenty of carotenoids

@salt everything you posted is different type of millet. We are talking about PROSO MILLET. Like I said even if it has some carotenoids so what. That amount in 100g of millet we would eat in a day is nothing. I understand eating really low vit A from all sources in the beginning. Like at least first year. But after that eating something like this millet is completely fine. If you don't have any issues after eating it.. Worrying about some plat vit A from already really low vit A foods will give you more stress and therefore more health issues than just eat everything except significant sources of vit A like organ meats, dairy, egg yolks, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash etc.. Also I will say again that eating restrictive diet like Grant does will give most people other serious health issues. Especially in form of micronutrient disbalance...

I do think that if there is a "white" option, you should seek it out. For instance, hubs wants me to make peach jam, so I'm waiting to score some white peaches.

Those yellow millets are not "very low vit A" which is what this thread is about. No food with a strong yellow or golden color is very low in carotenoids. The third paper I linked is about proso millet. Here is another one.
https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0104058
Over 500 µg of carotenoids per 100 g, in some of those proso millets.
According to this paper proso millet has more carotenoids compared to other types of millet: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/10942910802163105
Do whatever feels right to you.
