Bob's Red Mill Organic Flaxseed Meal: Whole Ground, USDA Organic
- USDA certified organic — made from organically grown flaxseed
- Whole ground — the entire seed is milled, retaining the fiber and oil content of the seed coat
- Finely milled texture — blends more easily into liquids than whole flaxseed
- Vegan egg substitute — 1 tablespoon meal plus 3 tablespoons water makes a flax egg for baking
- Mild, nutty flavor — works into smoothies, yogurt, and oatmeal without changing the taste much
- Pack options — Single and Pack of 3 for stocking up
How to Use
Stir 1-2 tablespoons into smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, or cereal daily, or mix into muffin, bread, or pancake batter for baking. For a vegan flax egg, combine 1 tablespoon of meal with 3 tablespoons of water and let it sit until gel-like, about 5 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container after opening and refrigerate or freeze, using within a few months for best quality.
About Bob's Red Mill
Bob's Red Mill began in Milwaukie, Oregon in 1978 and still relies on traditional stone milling, which grinds at cooler temperatures than modern steel rollers and keeps more of the grain's fiber and nutrients intact. The employee-owned company is widely recognized for non-GMO sourcing. Find more natural grocery and pantry staples at Real Prime Deals, or visit bobsredmill.com.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal contain allergens?
Flaxseed meal does not itself contain the major allergens, but Bob's Red Mill mills a range of grains and seeds in its facilities. Read the printed ingredient and allergen panel on the bag for the current facility notice before using it if you have a food allergy, since notices can change between production runs.
How should I store Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal?
After opening, transfer the meal to a sealed, airtight container and store it in the refrigerator or freezer, since whole ground flax can oxidize faster than whole seed once milled. Use it within roughly 30 to 90 days of opening for the best flavor. The unopened bag can be kept in a cool, dry pantry until then.
What does 'whole ground' mean compared to the golden flaxseed meal?
'Whole ground' means the entire brown flaxseed, seed coat included, is milled into meal, which this product and the Premium Flaxseed Meal both do. The Organic Golden Flaxseed Meal is also whole ground, but from golden flaxseed, which has a milder flavor than brown flax. Nutritionally the two colors are similar; the difference is mainly taste and appearance.
Where is Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal made?
Bob's Red Mill grinds this organic flaxseed meal at its facility in Milwaukie, Oregon, where the company has operated on traditional stone mills since 1978. It is packaged and shipped domestically, not imported, to Real Prime Deals customers across both the US and Canada from that Oregon facility.
