Does millet taste bitter?

[Aparecium]

Never tried it before. Just cooking it in water, like rice, and both the flaked style and the wholegrain style taste bitter to me. Should it? Or is it me?

Millet, cooked without anything else, does taste a little bitter to me as well. It has a distinctive taste.

I have found a recipe where it is mixed in with other flavours which is delicious. It's an old Cranks recipe.

Budgie food isn't it?
