Low Carb = Whole Grain?

O

casionally, I see something so astonishing, it forces me to digress from my usual cheerleading about eating seasonal foods, locally grown, where the retail price doesn't include a factor for the amount of diesel fuel needed to get the food from the producer to your market.

This mind-numbing blurb from the California Farm Bureau Federation came across my RSS newsreader today.

If I understand it correctly—and I probably could use some help on this—"Low Carb" will morph into "Whole Grain." Sheesh, I thought we got past that in the eighties with the bran muffin thing. And would any self-respecting Italian even think about eating a "whole grain" pizza?
