What to check before you buy
Check that the bag is 10kg and not a 5kg or 1kg x 10 bundle, which price differently.
Look for an intact seal and check the expiry date; damp bags can grow lumps or weevils.
Wheat meal is whole wheat and differs from semolina; pick based on taste and fibre needs.
Buying 10kg is cheaper per kg than buying 1kg or 2kg packs.
