FDA Issues New Guidance on Whole Grains

"Whole grains" are cereal grains including corn, rice, oats and wheat, and they must be intact, ground, cracked or flaked, according to FDA.
Consumers need a consistent definition for whole grains, said Barbara Schneeman, director of the FDA's office of nutritional products, labeling and dietary supplements.
"Using the term multigrain or seven-grain doesn't necessarily mean that product contains whole grains," she said.
