New Taste Thinking:
As restaurants and grocery stores begin to list the fat/calorie content of your typical muffin peoples jaws will drop. This is because items that need to sit on a shelf for a long period of time are always full of some sort of fat. The fat is what keeps them from drying out. I wont even mention the white sugar and white flour issue. If you like to eat a muffin in the morning you may want to make them yourself. This recipe is worth seeking out all of the ingredients that make up the multi-grain mixture.
