What is a Whole Grain?

All grains start life as whole grains. Whole grains are the entire seed of a plant. This seed (also called a “kernel”) is made up of three edible parts – the bran, the germ, and the endosperm –and a whole grain has all three of these original parts. In celebration of International Whole Grain Day on November 19, we’re joining the Whole Grain Initiative in sharing whole grain tips and tricks all month long.
