I saw it on the shelves with kind of "special" food, but not always. It is sold there in half pound packages and cost too much so it could not be used as a regular side often. Here it mentioned in our food chain article. https://rewards.cub.com/viewhealtharticle.action?path=%2Fus%2Fassets%2Ffood-guide%2Fbuckwheat%2F~default
It make a nice breakfast if add some milk and a bit of honey, like I had today. We buy it from euro/russian stores, way cheaper. The story is that Canada produces a lot of buckwheat, but they sell it to Japan, where they make a special kind of spaghetti of it. In fact, it is a very good source of protein and may be recommended for people who suffer from kidney disease, for example. Unfortunately, it is off American food traditions, as well as black currant.
