Bleached flour (wheat) is very common in the U.S. People have up
until recently judged white baked goods as superior than brown
baked goods, because only the rich could afford white flour.
Unbleached flour is slightly beige; bleached flour is whiter.
I leave it to the bakers and health nuts to weigh in on whether
bleached flour is undesirable.
