5 out of 5 stars Better than brown flax!   July 23, 2010
J. Lynd (Lower AL ~ United States)
I have been using Hodgson's Mill brown flax from the local supercenter for a while. When I went with a low carb lifestyle, I needed to up my flax usage for recipes and to keep things "regular", if you KWIM. Anyway, someone posted that golden flax was tastier & had a "lighter" flavor than brown. I decided to try it for myself. Couldn't find golden flax locally, so I ordered off Amazon. I am pleased with this product. It does have a lighter taste & makes a prettier (IMO) MIM (muffin in a minute). Kind of like comparing wheat bread to white bread. Just a lighter, less "nutty" flavor. If you don't want a whole case (4 packs) you could go in halves with someone, or just store your flax in the freezer to keep it nice till ready to use.
Here's my favorite MIM recipe for all you low carbers:
Rich Cocoa MIM
4 TBSP golden flax
1/2 tsp baking powder
1TBSP unsweetened cocoa baking powder (I like Hershey Special Dark)
1 packet Splenda, or use 3-4 drops of EZ Sweetz liquid sucrolose (like Splenda)
1 whole egg
2 tsp heavy cream
2 tsp butter
Mix thoroughly all dry ingredients together in a mug, first. Then add wet ingredients. Mix completely. Microwave for 1.5 to 2.5 minutes, depending on wattage. Can serve with cream cheese, whipping cream, butter, etc.



5 out of 5 stars Neutral tasting product, to add somethings to diet   April 22, 2010
Candace Drimmer (Chicago IL)
As one who has issues with taking fish oil (love fish, hate the indigestion burp of the oil), I ran across flax in a newspaper article and thought--well, why not. Quick trip to WF and there was Bob's. This fluffy, neutral tasting product isn't one that I find delicious, but it is NEUTRAL. Very light and easy to add to occasional smoothies, on top of cereal. It doesn't add any horrid taste, no indigestion. Only been a short time but it seems to add to regularity--a problem for some of us who are told to take rock hard calcium. So if it does that and add to omega 3, I'll be a happy camper. Will be interesting to see long term if it helps with cholesterol and other issues. But for now, try it, it is FOOD. Also seems to make the cereal fill me up longer, something most cereal doesn't do.

I had been using Flaxseed Meal for a while but had difficulty in finding it the stores on a consistent basis. With this problem I went to this site and was very happy with what I found. I add the product daily to a fruit smoothie. This allows me to get my daily fruit portions in and add another healthy product in the mix. Go for it. It can be added to all kinds of food and the benefits are worth it all.

I had never had the organic version of Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed Meal, but my husband ordered it online because it was a great price. When I got it, I tried it and loved it. It is even better than the non-organic version. Everything I've tried with it has come out delicious. And it's got a lot of Omega 3, more than my fish oil. I tried the muffin recipe in the back and it's sooo good. Even my daughter, who is very picky, loved it. Now my husband and my daughter want me to make the muffins as soon as we're getting close to running out.

I will definitely order this product again!

The flaxseed meal is excellent quality. As you may know, unless the flaxseeds are ground into a meal the nutritional value is unavailable to the body.

This product is great. Highly recommended.
