I bought a case of Bob's Red Mill with 4 packs of almond flour for around ~$37 which is much cheaper than buying the individual packs at the store (usually ~$10). Although I have seen giant bags of almond flour at Costco for about ~$15, it's not always available though and I STILL have 2 packs out of the 4 pack I bought.
I will order the four pack of Bob's Red Mill from Amazon I don't order it often and it lasts me a good while.
Thank goodness, I'm not the only one. I followed a keto recipe but ended up with the same result. I'm assuming this is not the almond flour you guys would recommend. As it says it's almond meal/flour. What do you guys recommend on Amazon?
> almond meal/flour being so expensive
I buy bobs redmill. Stores can sell it for a nice markup, i buy in bulk from amazon. I would "subscribe and save" so I can take an additional 15% off (since I get lots of consumables from Amazon).
Keep in mind, when I make a batch of Macarons I use 115 g of almond meal. So one of these bags makes quite a few batches.
just stay away from trader joes almond meal which doesn't remove the bitter shells. freaking gross.
i only eat bob's.
amazon (prime yes) has 4 bags for $38. not too too bad if you use it for the right recipe. http://www.amazon.com/Bobs-Red-Mill-16-Ounce-Packages/dp/B000EDG598
I live in Arizona. I was able to get Bob's Red Mill almond "meal" (finely ground) at Fry's, it's almond flour, it's very finely ground without the almond "skin". It was pricey though, 1 lb for 10-11 bucks. It's not nearly as gritty as almond meal, which is mostly ground up almonds with the skin.
After using Bob's Red Mill i'm not sure I'd use anything else when making holy grail pizza...now I just need to make some almond flour pancakes.
Edit: here is an amazon link. Link
When in doubt, Amazon. While I've never tried their almond flour specifically, I like a lot of Bob's Red Mill products. That link's a 4-pack (FYI), but there are others on Amazon sold in smaller packages.
The almond flour I have has 6g of carbs and 3g of fiber per 30g serving (1/4c) which is 3 net carbs. http://www.amazon.com/Bobs-Red-Mill-16-Ounce-Packages/dp/B000EDG598/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1354166488&sr=8-1&keywords=almond+flour
One of my favourite meals is holy grail pizza which requires 3/4c of almond meal which is 9 net carbs. I share the pizza with my husband, a lot of the time I only eat a quarter of the pizza as I have salad with it. So the crust only ends up being 2.25g of net carbs for me. It seems like a lot when you read the labels but once you work things out into portions it isn't.
Your package has 6g carbs and 3.1g of fiber so about 3g net carbs per serving. That is if you live in North America.
This is the flour I use, I posted the link so you can see the packaging. If your grocery store has a gluten free section, look there. If not, check the baking ailse. It is usually up high or down low (i.e. in the non-premium areas that are always filled with the junk).
And I will ASSUME that you have NEVER SET FOOT on a farm and have NO IDEA how it works. Your second paragraph referenced grain-fed beef. Which is exactly what I talked about. But I forget the lack of fats can cause . . . mental issues . . . with hard-core vegans
As to the grass-fed beef, that is why you need to buy it. Switch demand from one to the other = increased production of one, decreased in the other. And who said dairy MILK? If you are using generic one-to-others I can do so as well. So I am considering it on calories alone. not product. Plus almonds are used in more than just milk.

I think the right answer for the holy grail of flour is almond flour. https://www.amazon.com/Bobs-Red-Mill-Super-Fine-16-ounce/dp/B000EDG598
I got this one which claims to be 'finely ground'
We keep ours in the fridge and get it from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Bobs-Red-Mill-Almond-16-Ounce/dp/B000EDG598/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1433345818&sr=8-1&keywords=bob%27s+red+mill+almond+flour
