Stuff like cornmeal and such, that's been "enriched". Is that vegan?

 

[CharityAJO]

Yes. (I think?) They usually only enrich them with B vitamins. I can't think of any B vitamins that generally come from animals...

I think so because those Alternative Baking Company cookies have this in them and they are vegan. Guess what clone rcipe I am making tommorow <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/grin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=""><br><br><a href="http://www.vegsource.com/talk/recipes/messages/53788.html" target="_blank">http://www.vegsource.com/talk/recipe...ges/53788.html</a><br><br>

white flour is sometimes bleached with bone char, otherwise i'm pretty sure the others are pretty safe to assume as being vegan.<br><br><br><br>
whole flours are better to use in my opinion, humans can't put back what nature put in, in the first place.

 

[CharityAJO]

Actually, you know.. When they enrich bleached flours, they generally "put back" more than was there in a the first place. So from a "how many vitamins am I getting?" standpoint.. Enriched is kind of better than whole flour.<br><br><br><br>
But of course, whole has its own special benefits.

Hey guys I made the cookies and they are so good. They look like Bakery Cookies.<br><br><br><br>
I made them with carob chips and I think they are very close to the Alternative Baking Cookies, of course I made them a little different. I used 1/2 Fructose and 1/2 Splenda, and I used Grain Sweetened Carob Chips, you should try them when you have a cookie craving <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/smiley.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=""><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/drool.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=":drool:"><br><br><br><br>
Mark has had two today and he claims to not even like what he calls "fake" chocolate chips <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title=""><br><br><br><br>
BTW, I cut the recipe in half and it still made 6 or 7 cookies (about half the size of an Alternative Baking Company Cookie). Soy Lecthin is available at your HFS in the fridge, mine has it packed in tubs.<br><br><br><br>
Next time I will make them a different flavor and smush them out flatter (these cookies don't spread).<br><br><br><br>

i'll admit, i have a bias against fortified foods. a bias that isn't based in a whole lot of reality...
