As a food sourceMillets are major food sources in arid and semi-arid regions of the world, and feature in the traditional cuisine of many others. In Western India, Sorghum (called "Jowar", "Jwaarie" or "Jondhahlaa" in Gujarati, HIndi and Marathi)Mutthaari or Kora in malayalam, has been commonly used with millet flour (called "Bajari" in Western India) for hundreds of years to make the local staple hand rolled (that is, without a rolling pin) flat bread (called "Rotla" in Gujarati or "Bhakri" in Marathi or Roti in other languages. Another cereal grain popularly used in rural and poor people to consume as staple in the form of roti or other forms is called Ragi in Karnataka or Naachanie in Maharashtra, with the popularly made Ragi Rotti in Kannada). Ragi Mudde is a popular meal in Southern India. In Telugu it is called జోన౭లు (Jonnalu). Ragi is dark like rye but rougher in texture.

Millet porridge is a traditional food in Russian, German and Chinese сuisines. In Russia it is eaten sweet (with milk and sugar added at the end of cooking process) or savoury with meat or vegetable stews. In China it is eaten without milk or sugar, frequently with beans, sweet potato, and/or various types of squash. In Germany it is also eaten sweet (boiled in water with apples added during the boiling process and honey added during the cooling process).

People with celiac disease can replace certain gluten-containing cereals in their diets with millet.

Millets are also used as bird and animals

Alcoholic beverages

Millets are traditionally important grains used in brewing millet beer in some cultures, for instance by the Tao people of Orchid Island, Taiwan, and, along with sorghum, by various peoples in East Africa. It is also the base ingredient for the distilled liquor rakshi in Nepal and the indigenous alcoholic drink of the Sherpa, Tamang, and Limbu people, tongba, in Eastern Nepal. In Balkan countries, especially Romania and Bulgaria, millet is used to prepare the fermented drink boza.

Other usesMillet, along with birdseed, is commonly used as fillings for juggling beanbags.

Millet is widely popular as a treat/food for the domesticated pet Parakeet/Budgerigar.
