I just found out that popcorn might count as a whole grain. This
seems too good to be true!


Funny you should mention that. The last jar of popcorn I bought has a
large graphic on the front of the label: "100% WHOLE GRAIN!"

It was a teachable moment for the 11-year-old. "Sometimes what you
see on a label is absolutely true and at the same time absolutely
meaningless. This is one of those times."
