Question about Ingredients...

A local store makes their own ww tortillas.  I got the nutrition info, and wanted to run them by you.  Here are the ingredients:  water, whole wheat flour, enriched flour (wheat folur, malted barley, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin, riboflavin, folic acid), wheat bran, partially hydrogenated soybean and cottonseed oils, molasses, baking powder, salt.


EAch tortilla is 34g -- just over one grain serving.  I already know they are low on fiber, but I didn't know about the enriched flour. 


Thanks!

Funny, I read it and stopped at "enriched flour" and ruled it out based on that.
