"Why are your bags of flour more expensive than I pay at the grocery store?" Very few (if any) online grocers ship these products because they are so heavy and because the product tends to last awhile so most orders are for a single bag or two bags. Thus, the profit is simply "not there" when shipping such items. We are proud to offer a full line of flours and corn meals all packaged in plastic bag liners for added protection...but we thought you might like to know why these are so "dang" pricey.
