Look…Down in Your Bowl…It’s Super-Oats!

Health magazine recently named oats one of the healthiest super foods for women. This should come as no surprise since we’ve known for a long time that oats can help lower cholesterol. Now scientists say oats, rich in soluble and insoluble fiber, are also good for helping you feel full so you can control your weight. This may explain why January is National Oatmeal Month.

Whether eaten for breakfast, lunch, dinner or as a snack, oatmeal provides a warming, nutritious meal for everyone…male or female, children and adults alike. Everyday, millions of Americans start their day with some variety of oats: creamy instant oatmeal, traditional old fashioned oats, nutty steel cut oats. There are even “on the run” options for those who prefer their oats to go.

What Does Oprah Know?

For some time Oprah has called out Steel Cut Oats as her “favorite whole grain”. And who can argue…100% whole grain…helps reduce cholesterol…nutty texture…30 minute cook time…30 MINUTE COOK TIME?!? Okay, maybe it’s not so perfect (unless you have a chef).

All that changed on November 2 when we introduced Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats. Same whole grain goodness; same nutty, chewy texture, but with a 5-minute cook time puts Steel Cut Oats on your daily breakfast menu.

Look for Country Choice Organic Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats in your favorite store. The name’s a mouthful, but worth remembering. After all, you’ll get to enjoy a steaming bowl of steel cut oats everyday…just like Oprah!
