    no one can eat enough vegetable carbs to match grain carbs.

    It's easy. Look at my diary. Today is a typical weekday for me. I'll have 18 grams of carbs from grains (1/3 cup of oatmeal in my morning smoothie) out of a total of 233 grams of carbs for the day. Of those 215 remaining carb grams, almost all are coming from fruits and vegetables. 39 grams will come from popcorn if I have some tonight as planned, but corn is not a grain. Is it? Maybe it is. But that would still make 57 grain carbs out of 233 total, or 24% of total carbs.
    Yup you just zinged by that whole 1/3 of a cup of oatmeal with veggies......grain doesn't stand a chance. j/k
