From Wheat

Wheat is a cereal grain that is a staple food worldwide. It is grown in many countries and is a primary ingredient in bread, pasta, and baked goods. Wheat is typically milled into flour, which is then used in a wide variety of food products.

Wheat flour is a fundamental ingredient in baking, providing structure and texture to products like cookies and cakes. It can also be used as a thickener in sauces and gravies. Its versatility makes it a common ingredient in many processed foods.

Wheat is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of carbohydrates, fiber, and some B vitamins. While not a major allergen, some individuals have a sensitivity or intolerance to wheat, most notably celiac disease, which is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten, a protein found in wheat. The WHO/IARC has not classified wheat itself as a carcinogen.
