What it is

Soft white wheat flakes are made from soft white wheat, a type of wheat grown primarily in the northwestern United States. The wheat kernels are steamed, rolled flat into flakes, and then lightly toasted to create a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a tender texture.

Why it's used

These flakes are often used as a base for breakfast cereals, adding a mild flavor and tender texture. They can also be incorporated into baked goods like breads and cookies to improve moisture and texture, or used as a topping for yogurt and fruit salads.

Health notes

Soft white wheat flakes are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of carbohydrates and dietary fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated wheat and its components, but specific evaluations for 'soft white wheat flakes' may not be available. Evidence on the health effects of whole grains, including wheat, generally points to benefits when consumed as part of a balanced diet.

Allergen info

Soft white wheat flakes are derived from wheat, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. They also contain gluten.
