Sheesh, why "whole wheat" bread specifically? Why "DU" munitions specifically?

(Possible answer: Because Seraph travels in circles where being "pro-whole-wheat" and "anti-DU" are the most fashionable positions to hold; but to be "pro-white-bread" is unfashionable, and to be "pro-DU" is somewhere between heresy and insanity. I mean -- what's with the simplistic black-and-white dichotomies, Seraph? I thought it was only right-wing idiots like Bush and Palin who refuse to speak about shades of gray...)
