I am not quite sure but it does not poke through and smells good when you warm it up.

I've never ground flax seed, but this is a great product for the amounts you're describing. From home grown herbs to peppercorns and garlic cloves, i feel this product is a great value. It's well made and with proper care I expect to get years of use from it.

To the best of my knowledge the product is from the whole seed. It has very little flavor, and seems to have the oils that one would expect. It thickens up water as an egg substitute, and absorbs water in oatmeal.

It is stuffed but I don't know what it is stuffed with. I assumed it was some sort of poly filling.

Flax seed is like some other grains, such as wheat, whereby these seeds do not need to be stored in the freezer like sunflower seeds. They will last for years outside the freezer and probably forever inside the freezer. If you buy the milled flax seeds you would need to store that in the freezer. Enjoy!

I have always mixed it with wet food. Flax seed needs to be refrigerated as soon as the bag is opened, so a rancid batch might be unappealing to a cat for a good reason. Just a thought.

I have not had the need to break down Flax or Chia seeds as of yet. Sorry I am unable to answer your question. However we had a difficult time trying to mince up an Avocado which was cut up into chunks about the size of an ice cube. Had to keep stopping the unit and pushing them down with a wooden spoon a number of times to get it all completely ground up.

I think they are refering to Essential Fatty Acids, like Omega-3s. Listed below that are the types of fiber that are in the mix, and Flax does have Omega-3. I read that it is a very good type of fiber to take. Hope this helps!

For the absolute answer you would need to contact the manufacturer directly. Most companies are very willing to answer end user questions about the product. Quoting the comment on the can it reads: [This product] is a drying oil extracted from the seed of the flax plant. It is a natural product which contains no additives or driers and has a slow drying time (2-4 days). This slow drying characteristic allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the wood. [This product] is recommended for applications requiring a completely natural product....

It appears to be made from roasted seeds. I'm not sure about whether it is whole seed or hulled.

Go to the Bob's Red Mill website and search for "organic ground flax seed". Expand the label on the side of the package. It says that flax seed contains approximately 50% Alpha-linolenic acid (Omega-3's). A serving of 2 T contains 2400 mg of Omega-3's. Milled flax seed is flax seed with the husk removed, but the remaining seed is whole. Ground flax seed is the entire flax seed ground to a coarse meal. Meal is coarser than flour. I do not think that flax seed could ever be ground into flour. I think that it would turn into an oily mixture like peanuts ground into peanut butter. If you ever try to make almond meal or almond flour in a food processor and process the almonds too long, you can end up with almond butter. So if you are baking, you probably want flax seed meal. Whole flax seeds are covered with insoluble fiber which protects the soluble fiber inside the seed. Whole flax seeds usually absorb water and act as fiber and pass through the body whole. In the digestive tract, all the nutrients of the flax seed are not absorbed by the body. This insoluble fiber also feeds healthy bacteria in the digestive system. So whole flax seeds are probably not as useful to the body as ground flax seeds. When flax seeds are ground, both insoluble and soluble fiber are available to the body. Soluble fiber slows down digestion and helps to make you feel full.

No, Flax seeds are to fine and would slip through the tines without being ground.

It does a good job on everything I've tried, but I haven't tried flaxseeds. It grinds fine as dust or coarse for pepper.Small and doesn't take a big space for storage. Sorry about not having your answer.

It is and I like it better than any flaxseed I have ever used. The price is equal or even better that the other brands.

it has Rice, Barley and Millet in it as well as flax seed. I did not see wheat as an ingredient.

Try soaking a tbsp or two of flax seeds overnight in a cup of water. They'll soak up water, get soft like jelly and blend perfectly.
