Nutrition Plus With Macaroni,
Bread And Cereals
Since each family member needs four
servings of whole grain or enriched bread or
cereals each week, it’s important to make
wise choices Bread, rice, cereals or the
whole category of macaroni offers a wide
choice. In the category of macaroni comes
the spaghetti, vermicelli and noodles in all
the shapes and sizes. Not all macaroni pro
ducts are enriched so you need to read the
labels. If they are, the nutrients added are
hon, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin.
Bread may be either enriched or re
stored which means those same four in
gredients are added. Or it may be fortified
with vitamin D.

You don’t have to eat a
