Using Multigrain Pancake Mix instead of BRF for PF Tek? (yes)

The name says a lot of it. This'll be my first time growing, but I've been researching like crazy. I'll be inoculating 10-12 jars in a day or two. I stumbled across a box of "Multigrain Baking & Pancake Mix" at the local Trader Joe's and bought one for the hell of it (it was $2). I've tried searching the ingredients up for shroom cultivation, and it seems that many could very well be viable for PF Tek as a substitute for BRF (and perhaps even better). Could I get some thoughts on this from someone with more experience? Here are a couple pics of the nutritional label and the mix itself.
 I think one of the biggest problems would be to make it distribute evenly across the verm without clumping up and inhibiting myc growth. I may just not know what I'm talking about with this, but that's why I'm here Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Shroom on!

im sure it will work just fine.I would be extremely surprised if it didn't work. I haven't come across anything that hasn't worked when mixed at the right ratios. might not work great tho

Thanks for the wicked quick reply! I'm just also a little worried it'll all absolutely fail because of some of the ingredients. I know it'll be a lot easier to contam, but I'll be sterilizing to the best of my ability. I think I'll try just mixing it into wet verm just to see what consistency is like, and if it seems plausible, then I'll do a few jars with this. It just seems like there are quite a few supplements here that shrooms could very much benefit from. Just wasn't sure if wheat flour/whole wheat flour would work well or not with the rest of the ingredients. Searching right now.

Hmm, seems you're right. Salt would most likely just dehydrate the myc, and inhibit growth. Damn, that's too bad.

also it may contain some chemicals that prevents bacterial&fungal build up (the fungi part may include your myc too )
