Oats!

I have been reading the nutrition books and now see i can have omletets for breakfas aswell as porridge but what the hell are rolled oats and oat bran! Cheers.

Rolled oats are basically 'proper' oats - Scotts Porridge Oats, Quaker Oats etc. Just flattened, not ground like Ready Brek or the like.

Oat Bran is the shells of the oats, you can get that in the 'healthy' bit of the supermarket where all the seeds, flax oils, goji berries, quinoa etc are kept...looks a lot like sawdust.

Thank you almighty one!
