How do you pronounce it? I always thought it was keenwah, but on Masterchef they're pronouncing it the way you would think - kinoa

Keenwa, I think.

Kee-nwa.

Definitely keen-wah but you could argue it's a bit like pronouncing Nicaragua with a Spanish accent

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't want to look silly...

It doesn't matter. You never need to say it out loud. You're never going to ask the supermarket lady where the quinoa is. It's not chocolate.
