GRAINS http://extension.usu.edu/fsne/images/uploads/Lesson%20graphics/grains.jpg • What are GRAINS? • I know what you are thinking of. How many grains should you have a day, should you eat more whole grains, well I have the answers. You should eat at least 3 ounces of whole grain bread, crackers, rice ,or pasta every day. Look for whole before the grain name on the list of ingredients.
