The bigger Viilas usually have it... they have a section with some less common bagged packages of things like flaxseed, spelt, quinoa, barley, etc,,,

Ok the best wholesale supplier of Flaxseed and other beans and cereals is located on Suk. Soi 36. Manager and owner is an old man more than 90 years old. He'll still sell you 500 grams or in less quantities as he's extremely pleasant and helpful. His grown-up kids are also around to help support the business.

Business title to look for: BBI Co. Ltd. He supplies to all the retail stores in Thailand.

A week ago, I bought a couple of store-packaged bags of black beans and small red beans from a local Makro store in BKK, and the prices were quite good. In the store, they have big barrels full of different grains, nuts and beans sitting open. But my mine were in celophane bags packaged by the store.

Kept them sealed at home waiting for cooking. Yesterday, took out the first bag to soak, and found the beans full of those little black bugs...weevils or whatever. So took out the second back to soak... same problem. Had to throw both away.

So much for buying beans from Makro...

yes they should be there. While I haven't been there in a while, I don't see why they'd shut down such an extensive business. I found this: http://goo.gl/IJdzMv. Not sure if the numbers are valid though but try them out.
