No real difference. Whole wheat is a type of whole grain. It means it's not refined and you get the whole grain including the bran and the germ. If bread or another product says 'whole grain' it means it may include not just wheat, but the whole grains of oat, barley, etc.

this says whole grain because its got the whole kernel in there. its not broken down and refined.
