1. In America I don't sift the flour myself. Neither do my parents.
2. In Israel I sift. According to the booklet based on R' Vaye's shiurim, flour falls into the category that bidieved is ok(when you can't check it anymore), so if I was in someone's house that had baked something with unsifted flour I would eat it.
I am Yeshivish

I once asked a Rav over here about the flour, and he said if it's eidah hachareidis hechsher, I could use it unsifted bidieved, but that it is very important to sift it before using it.

Do you actually go and ask people if they sift their flour?
BTW what I was told is that bugs can't live in white flour anyhow here in EY and that you have to worry more about whole wheat flour which must be sifted no matter what.
Anyone here ever find bugs in white flour? I never have...and of course I sift with the fine mesh plastic sifter...

I recently found a ton of bugs in a bag of white flour. It was the only bag from the whole case but boy was it infested. Yuck. (In Israel)

Definitely found black wormy bugs in white flour in Israel. It was gross. But I was just wondering what we end up eating when people aren't careful.

Yeah, I also want to know how you'd know if the flour wasn't sifted?

Although I always sift the flour at home, I would eat by someone who doesn't. I think most bakeries and companies dont sift. (In the U.S.) And yes, I have definitely found worms in the flour, so I really cant understand how so many people dont sift.
