    Hi,

    Hope i m not late in giving my two cents.

    The brand i use here in USA is Nature Best whole wheat atta for past 4 yrs.I tried other brands like Golden temple and finally settled with this one.I have not tried the popular Sujatha brand.Before this i was using Nature fresh in India.

    I am using Bhavani brand whole wheat atta from past 3-4 months and am liking it better than Sujatha atta. Earlier I had used Sujatha, Lakshmi and Golden temple. From my experience, Lakshmi brand atta is good but it requires a lot of kneading to get good soft rotis. Sujatha is good too.
    We get Bhavani brand in PA, NJ areas......

    Earlier I was using golden temple but found it maida mixed.Then I used swad bhalia atta too good no maida.Now we moved and did't find swad here so now using sujata chakki atta.This is also very gud.

    Hi I am using Golden Temple atta that is really good and chapatis are very soft till 3 days, but remember u have to buy only purple colour bag that is pure wheat flour and other bags mixed with maida.

    We use Nature's Best. The rotis come out soft. I recommend it.

    I have been using Sujatha Atta since 2 years. Rotis come out really well. This brand reminds me of Pillsbury chakki fresh aatta i used in India..

    Re: Hi,

    Hi Selvi,

    Where do you get the Nature's Best WHole wheat atta? I got this Golden temple recently and not happy with it. Before I used to buy Laxmi atta...the rotis became hard after sometime. Then i was happy with Sujata atta...now it is totally out of stock in Virginia.

    Half heartedly using Golden temple now.
    Also tried this new Shakthi brand ( on the advice of the shop owner) but returned the 20 lb bag since the attas came out like Appalams!

    So give ur suggestions and the place to get this Nature's Best!
    Thanks

    I am using Golden Temple now. It is a white color packet. The chapathis are soft as soon as we make it, but for carrying @ lunch, it becomes hard and rubbery!

    What other kind of Golden temple is there? Is there anything specially marked on it?

    Thanks
