Ive never heard of that. You can buy it in a box.

Answer 14

Are you making homemade mac and cheese with a white sauce?  It that what the flour is for?  Whole wheat flour will affect the flavor a little bit, making it a bit more "earthy."  Be sure to cook it (the sauce) long enough to cook the flour well so that it doesn't taste like raw flour.

Answer 15

Presumably you're using the flour just to make a roux for the cheese sauce right?  I'm not familiar with wholemeal flour but as you are only using a small amount as a thickening agent I would assume it's fine.
