Outdated In One Month!
I love Bob’s Red Mill Ground Flaxseed. I use it almost everyday for my family including my dog! However, I was so disappointed to see the expiration date was only one month away and I bought two bags. I bought this in Feb ‘23 and it expired Mar ‘23. Amazon needs to check these dates instead of shipping them out and hopefully consumers will catch it. I do not need to be eating moldy or rancid flaxseed! I will buy from my local grocer from now on so I can check the dates. I’ll pay more, but get better quality!
Thank you for your feedback

This is my personal favorite flaxseed meal that I've bought. Personally while I do think there are other amazing brands for some reason I always feel like Bob's Red Mill is a safe choice. I have bought this particular flaxseed a few times already and I really do enjoy it. My dad is the one who consumes most of this though. I believe he takes about 1 or even 2 tbsp of this and puts it in his smoothies. I have taken this with water and it isn't too bad, although I recommend putting it in something that is a bit thicker like a protein shake, smoothie, or even backed goods.
I do think this has a nice taste to it when added to other drinks and backed foods. It gives it a fresh taste and it's good for you.
Although as I have seen others warn, if your digestive track is more sensitive or your just not used to products like this I would start out with a small dosage and work your way up as it can sometimes cause a little tummy issues if taken too much in the beginning.
All in all a nice product that's good for you. Can't complain and I will continue to buy it.

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2014
I used to grind my own flaxseed but this stuff is amazing. No shell and easy to mix into my soylent. I'm a food scientist and looked up research articles regarding the potential for oxidation/rancidity from the flaxseed oil but it's stable when kept in a low-humid storage out of sunlight.

I've added this to all kinds of different recipes and it either adds a little nutty flavor or you can't even tell it's in there. Flaxseed is just good for you all the way around. I priced it at the local health store and this was a couple bucks less expensive.
Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2012
The main point I would make is tailor the daily amount of this product you take to your capacity for this product. I made the mistake of starting with the amount recommended on the package of this product of two tablespoons daily. After about two weeks I started to have some bowel difficulty. I stopped using the product for a week, and I was fine. So I would recommend starting out with a teaspoon per day and increase gradually to a level you're comfortable with.

I checked other reviews and saw that this had a short shelf life, no problem as I intended to use quickly, however, mine that arrived today literally had an expiry of 05-2016 which is totally unacceptable as it is now the last day of the month!
