The flour is quite low in fat, with about 1.6 gram per 100 grams. It is rich in carbohydrates (80g\/100g) and in fiber (12g\/100g). Cassava flour is known to attract fewer insects and pests than normal wheat flour. Cassava flour's starchy texture makes it an excellent thickener, and it is used to thicken soups, baby foods, puddings, sauces and gravies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIngredients: \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJamaica Sweet Cassava \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllergies\u003c\/strong\u003e: The product is processed in same facility and on common equipment with products containing soy, wheat, egg and medicinal herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWarnings\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not suitable for infants under 12 months.
