Product Description
USDA organic. Friend of the heart. Provides fiber, lignans & omega-3 fats. Opaque package protects important nutrients. Dear customers, Flaxseed Meal has a robust nutty flavor. A tablespoon or two baked into your breads and muffins or added to your hot cooked cereal or pancakes brings to you the most powerful natural cholesterol controllers. Several studies show Flaxseed Meal may be one of the most powerful natural cholesterol controllers. This opaque packaging material preserves the healthful Omega-3 fats which are an essential part of our diets. One serving of flaxseed Meal contains 2400 milligrams of omega-3 fatty acids. It is for you, dear customer, to perceive these benefits and begin using Flaxseed Meal. It carries my highest endorsement. Gluten free. Certified organic by QAI. Bob's Red Mill products labeled Gluten Free are batch tested in our quality control laboratory. We use an Elisa gluten assay test to determine if a product is gluten free. All natural.

 Tasty Omega 3s! April 21, 2009
Noisy Duck (Fort Morgan, CO USA)
This Flaxseed meal is a very tasty and easy way to get more Omega 3 oils and fiber in your diet. It's much less messy to use than flaxseed oil, and tastes better. It is great on foods like yogurt, apples, and cottage cheese, and it's even surprisingly good added to pancake, cookie, and muffin batters.
My cattledog (Red Heeler) even likes flaxseed meal on her food, and it has improved the condition of her skin and coat tremendously. She used to shed constantly, and scratched and chewed herself raw. Now she doesn't itch nearly so much, her coat is thick and soft, and she only sheds twice a year. (My vet recommended a short tablespoon of flax meal per 10 pounds of body weight every day for the itching.) If you use dry dog food you have to mix a little water in so the flax meal sticks to the food.
Good stuff March 16, 2009

I've been using this product for a couple of years, adding it to oatmeal or oat bran in my morning cereal. It gives the cereal a nice texture and a nutty flavor. Best of all, it solved regularity problems, which ranged from constipation to irritable bowel syndrome.
 Excellent Product, But This Is Not the Best Value March 16, 2009

I love Bob's Red Mill products and the flaxseed meal is no exception. I eat this nearly everyday in a hot breakfast cereal. The nutritional content is incredible and the flavor can be easily modified for sweet or more bread-like recipes. I bought this 4-Pack of 32 oz. bags from Amazon, thinking about what a great value it was with free shipping and all, but found a better deal elsewhere (VitaCost sells it for less, even with shipping). Although I will continue to purchase Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed Meal, it probably will not be through Amazon.
So many uses for flax meal! March 10, 2009

I am on a low-carbohydrate diet for my Type 2 diabetes. Flax meal in moderate portions doesn't seem to affect my blood sugar at all.
I make flax meal pancakes (flax meal, eggs, baking powder, salt, vanilla, and Splenda) with sugar-free syrup. I gave flax meal a 4-star rating instead of a 5-star rating because the flax bread that I made was horrible. Absolutely horrible. Flax meal is great for muffins, cakes, pancakes, and cookies - basically, anything that's sweet. Flax sort of has a naturally sweet quality to it. It's not so great in bread.
Moist bread! October 6, 2008

I have read about the wonderful benefits of flaxseed and after trying the seeds with little success (you have to toast, then grind then incorporate), I decided to try the pre-ground meal. I love Bob's Red Mill products, so that part was a no-brainer. I used the meal for the first time in a recipe for homemade pumpkin bread. I have never had pumpkin bread so moist! It was almost cake-like. I will decrease the amount I add next time (it says you can use it in place of some oils or butters in recipes, but I added it to the flour), but I'm impressed. I expected a strong oaty, grainy taste (like Buckwheat), but found none. It seems to have blended perfectly in the bread. This morning, I added some to oatmeal -- just a pinch or so -- and I could taste a tiny difference, but not much. My 3-year-old didn't notice at all. As always, great product from a great brand!
