Whole grains have appeared in many forms at past observances, including quinoa, farro, bulgur, oats, and brown rice.\nThe first Whole Grain Sampling Day took place on April 4, 2012. It was organized by Oldways and its Whole Grains Council, which invited supermarkets, restaurants, foodservice providers, and other organizations to offer whole grain samples and encourage people to try something new. According to the council, the event was created to reduce barriers to enjoying more whole grains and has included tastings, cooking demonstrations, educational activities, and online promotions over the years. The council’s history and accomplishments page documents the event’s development.",
