Health notes

Wheat flour and water are basic food staples. Whole wheat flour contains fiber and nutrients, while refined flour has fewer nutrients unless enriched. The FDA considers enriched wheat flour a safe and wholesome food ingredient. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated components of wheat and water, but specific evaluations for the combination 'wheat flour & water' are not typically listed.

Allergen info

Wheat is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Wheat flour contains gluten, a protein that can cause adverse reactions in individuals with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
