CHICAGO—Research from California State Polytechnic University-Pomona on the consumption of whole grains and soluble fiber-enriched burritos and chocolate chip cookies among elementary school children found no significant differences in consumption between the refined flour and whole grain and soluble fiber-enriched foods.
“The study results show potential for both whole grain and soluble fiber-enriched products to be incorporated into the school menus, particularly chocolate chip cookies,” wrote lead researcher Maria B. Omary.
