Review of 'Bob's Red Mill' Organic Old Fashioned Regular Rolled Oats

Bob's Red Mill -- Organic Old Old Fashioned Regular Rolled Oats  (vegan)
Overall Rating: 3.5/5
Summary: very fresh and great chewy texture, but missing a certain flavour that I've only experienced with Dan-D Organic Rolled Oats (my favourite oats!!). The nutritional profile is great, especially when you add milk...a very wholesome meal, especially for those looking to lower LDL cholesterol, increase fiber intake, and stay fuller for longer! I'd recommend oatmeal lovers try Dan-D Organic Oats, though I'd still recommend this brand.

Where to buy: Bulk Barn, Fortinos

Organic Regular Rolled Oats

The simple, wholesome one-ingredient provides great nutritional content: for 190 calories, it's low in saturated fat, has zero sodium, and is high in fiber and protein, with a solid bit of iron. Very nice. Add some milk, and there's more protein and calcium for a well-rounded breakfast.
