Guest guest Posted December 7, 2001 Report Share Posted December 7, 2001 I looked into Heintzman Farms Flax some time back but the cost was hideously expensive. 6 one pound bags for $42 plus shipping. That is about the same price per pound as good beefsteak. Nowhere on the website could I find anything which indicates why their brand is sooooo much better than the competition. I by golden flax at my local Whole Foods Market for under $2 a pound. I find the golden flax to be lighter in flavor than the brown flax so it combines easier with other flavors. But I do not why I would spend 4 times that much unless I thought the expensive stuff was very much superior.
