If the noodle is served as a side dish in preschool, must it be wholegrain as well?

Question

Accepted Answer

The guideline for wholegrain (WG) noodles is only applicable when it is served as a main carbohydrate source during lunch. If the preschool serves macaroni/ABC pasta/other non-WG noodles during breakfast or tea break, or as a side dish (e.g. small amounts of tang hoon in soup), they are exempted from the guideline.
