The government's latest recommended dietary guidelines and recent research show that eating more whole grains in place of refined grains is better for all of us. Yet, it's estimated the average consumer today eats less than a third of the recommended amount of whole grains--and 40 percent of us never eat whole grains at all. It could be that many consumers associate whole grains with dense, heavy, sometimes tasteless foods. Until recently, it also was challenging to find many truly whole-grain products outside of organic food stores. But more and more companies are moving to take advantage of the burgeoning interest in whole grains, spurred by the growing body of research about their nutritional benefits."
