How weird is this — two days ago I was in Whole Foods and saw the whole grain cornmeal and the polenta sitting next to each other. I chose the corn meal because it was cheaper, and I thought it would allow me to make the same dish as the “polenta.” So – I started researching to make sure and discovered this webpage. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the info! I actually had NO IDEA that polenta was not whole grain – somehow I figured they just ground up the corn! Very good to know – I will look for the whole grain version from now on.

It’s hard to live healthy in a culture of toxic food. Food corporations jam us full of crap because it makes them money. Profit comes before the health of your customers.

You are amazing. Rarely do I find a vegan so focused on healthy food. You can have a lousy diet and still be vegan… it’s distinctions like this that make the difference. Thanks!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I made polenta with the bob’s red mill, basil and garlic. After cooking and refrigerating it I dipped in parmesean and pan fried in olive oil. Served with peppers, onions and scrambled eggs… it was HEAVEN! Thanks for the new whole grain option in my vegetarian pantry!
