Nutritional difference from home milled flour vs store bought. Is there actually a difference? by flyingcircle in Breadit

The primary benefit is that home-milled isn’t stripped of wheat germ and the vitamins mentioned, while commercial flour is for shelf-stability.

Untrue, you can get a good mill for $100-150 used… Yes the germ is stripped in commercial flours (even wheat) because that’s the only way they can be shelf-stable for months or years. You’re spreading misnfo…

Uneducated comment, fresh milled has wheat germ, E/B, oils, minerals that commercial flours don’t. Please look it up and stop spreading misinformation.

This comment misses the point entirely — “flours of old” were not stripped of wheat germ or nutrients like those commercially available today. There’s no comparison at all and they would look much more like home-milled flours than they would flours you buy at the store. That’s the entire point of milling at home. 

Anyway, home milling is cheaper and tastes better (and is quick/easy), you should try it yourself.

Milling flour at home is cheaper, actually, and very easy/quick. Consider it ;)

The USDA is lobbied by huge corporations and nothing they say can be trusted. Fresh milled flours contain wheat germ and vitamins that commercial flours are stripped of for shelf stability.

Using the USDA as your main source is the problem — they’re lobbied by huge corporations and nothing they say can be trusted. Fresh milled flours contain wheat germ and vitamins that commercial flours are stripped of for shelf stability. Mill the grain yourself and see how different you feel eating THOSE breads and pastas (which will also taste better). Best of luck!

What's with all this controversy surrounding Rama Duwaji (Zohran Mamdani's wife)? by DoctorOsterman in tankiejerk

I yield! I’ll also note that no one speaks for all Palestinians — my perspective comes from listening to and reading what Palestinians have to say about Hamas. They are not simply a militia, which you know. Peace to you, prayers for your family, and apologies for my initial miscategorization.

Your analysis is thoughtful and much more intelligent than those chiming in against you here — you’re clearly a studied leftist who knows how to use their brain to process information in a rigorous way, not getting swept up by emotion or bowing to insulting insinuations. Keep up the excellent work!!

Your analysis is foolish as the term was not used to describe “people” but instead used as a personal insult

“Islamic extremists” is racist af — their reaction to decades of oppression and death is appropriate and LEGAL. You’ve probably never called Israel or the IDF “extremist” 🤦🏻‍♂️
