Rizzuto Foods, in cooperation with the Whole Grains Council and Shepherds
Grain Flour introduce whole wheat pizza crusts designed specifically for
school foodservice.
The new dietary guidelines for Americans, released January 2005, recommend
that everyone eat at least half their grains as whole grains. The USDA
defines a whole grain serving as any food containing 16 grams of
whole grain. Our new 12" whole wheat pizza crust provides over 18 grams
of whole grain per serving when cut into 8 slices. Under the Whole
Grains Council guidelines this product is defined as an "Excellent Source" of
whole grain. A small amount of whole grain translates into big health
benefits.
We exclusively use Shepherd's Grain brand flour in our whole wheat
products. We are proud to support the Columbia Plateau Producers who
are a small group of progressive Northwest family farmers committed
to growing quality wheat using environmentally friendly production
methods.
Our Whole Grain line consists of Breadsticks, 5" Deep Dish,
12" Extra
Thick, 15" Extra Thick and 12"xl6" Rectangles. See the back
of this flyer for nutritional details.
