What real-world misread should farro catch?

A familiar recipe can make farro look negotiable, but wheat keeps the standard version in the avoid-first lane unless a gluten-free substitute is named.

For farro, the label transcript is useful only when it matches the current package, flavor, and preparation context. Treat it as a representative farro transcript unless the evidence detail names public-source material; it sharpens the question without pretending to be a live screenshot or permanent brand promise.

Replace standard farro with farro substitute made with rice, corn, potatoes, or quinoa before cooking or ordering. If the real farro situation has a different ingredient, sauce, tool, or shelf clue, treat it as a fresh decision and use the next action above.
