General Mills Recalls Gold Medal Flour Due To Salmonella Contamination
General Mills has issued a voluntary recall for two, five, and ten pound bags of Gold Medal Unbleached and Bleached All Purpose Flour after salmonella contamination was detected.
I bought a MockMill Pro 200 to stone grind my own wheat/grains, a Ankarsrum & KitchenAid Pro mixer for dough, a chest freezer to freeze the grain for 30d to kill eggs & stuff in the grain (no weevils etc), & buy wheat, corn, rice, and ancient grains in 25lb-50lb bags from Azure Standard. My salt is Redmonds Agriculture (unprocessed) from Utah. It has: Salt (~90%) & the remaining ~10% is Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Potassium, Sulfur, Iron, Iodine, Manganese, Copper, Zinc. My sourdough starter has lottsa hootzpa. Store bought flour is nutritionally bereft compared to fresh ground whole grain flour.
GM: What should we do with all of our contaminated flower?
Glowie:(clears throat) Um, we'll dispose of all of it for you.
GM: Um...okay???
Glowie takes it all to their DUMBs.
Used to buy Gold Medal (among others). Glad our house is gluten free, now. We do try to buy non-gmo cornstarch when possible.
Flour yea.. but if its beef or another meat, doesnt the salmonella get rendered inert by the heat when you fry it?
As long as the flour is baked it would kill the bacterial also. It's not likely to live in a dry environment like flour.
ty
Ya this kinda glows.
