Taste Test Ideas for Whole Grains
- SMorning Munchers - taste different whole grain cereals (i.e.: oats, rice, wheat, corn). Make sure they are low (under 5g) in sugar!
- Lots of Loaves - compare different whole grain breads, or try pieces of various breads, like whole wheat, rye, multigrain, oat, etc.
- Cracker Comparison - try different types of whole grain crackers
- Tortillas- try different types of tortillas, like whole grain versus corn
- Silly popcorn - add toppings such as parmesan cheese, olive oil, garlic salt or cinnamon and sugar to fresh popped popcorn (if using microwave popcorn, check label for trans-fat free)
- Oatmeal - January is National Oatmeal Month so try different flavors of oatmeal, or with different toppings (milk, cinnamon, raisins or craisins, shredded coconut, nuts, etc)
