remain intact.

flat between rollers. These grains
are safe in the pantry for a longer

WHOLE GRAIN
There are no requirements for this label but
most foods contain at least 8 grams of
whole grains per serving. Look for
a "Whole Grain" stamp to be sure! Note that
these foods may also contain refined grains.

Most products with this label only contain
whole grains, but that's not always the case.
Look for the "100% whole grain" stamp for
items with at least 16 grams of whole grain
per serving.
