Since 2005, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans have encouraged all of us to "make at least half our grains whole." But are we listening? According to new data from the WGC's 2015 Whole Grains Consumer Insights Survey, the answer is a resounding yes: nearly two-thirds of Americans say they're making half or more of their grains whole.

Our goal was to answer some of the key questions journalists ask us day in and day out: "How has whole grain consumption changed since 2010?"… "What percentage of people have stopped eating gluten?"… "How do consumers actually use the Whole Grain Stamp?"… and more. The responses – highlighted below – were fascinating.
