3 whole grain

[gordonsveg]

O.K which civil servant, cereal maker,or general know all decided we all now need 3 portions of whole grain in our diets? Maybe its the same one who said we need 5 lots of veg.
       Anyway most of the creatures who eat whole grain end up in the abbotoir..

I hadn't thought the message had change I thought it was just a rehash of eating the right amount of fibre.  :-\

By the time we have eaten our 5 fruits or veg a day, our 3 whole grains, our oily fish, our white meat, our litres of water, our pints of milk and whatever else we are supposed to cram in to keep ourselves living longer, is it any suprise I am at weight watchers?

Do you think you could get away with counting flapjacks as a whole grain portion? ;D ;D ;D

When I was a lad growing up you would eat what was put in front of you more stodge the better because no buggar sat behind a computer screen because  the majority of jobs in my youth were manual and hard graft and to do a days work you needed some grub inside you :)
