All About Oats

Get to Know Your Oats Oats come in so many varieties, you may wonder: what’s the difference between Scottish and steel cut oats? And what makes gluten free oats different from regular oats? Read on to learn all about the World’s Best Oatmeal ® !

Oat Varieties: A Guide All of our delicious oatmeal varieties are made from the freshest, highest quality oat groats available. From there, we handle them with care to make our three main varieties:

Steel Cut Also known as “pin head” or “Irish” oats, our steel cut oats are chopped with a steel blade 2–3 times after kiln toasting. f f f Scottish Our Scottish oats are ground on our slow turning, cool running quartz millstones. This creates a creamy, porridge-like texture that’s a favorite at the mill. Rolled Our traditional rolled oats are steamed and rolled. The only difference between all of our varieties—from instant to extra thick—is how thickly they’re rolled!

Whole Grain Goodness At Bob’s Red Mill, all of our oatmeal varieties are made from whole grain oat groats and include the bran, germ and endosperm. Whether you

prefer your oats rolled, cut or ground, you’ll enjoy all the nutritional benefits of the original whole grains, including fiber, antioxidants and protein, as well as vital minerals and vitamins! Non-GMO, Organic and Gluten Free Oats We are proudly committed to sourcing ingredients that are not genetically engineered. In fact, more than 200 of our products are now Non-GMO Project Verified, including all of our oat varieties. See our full list of Non-GMO Project Verified products at livingnongmo.org . Look for the organic and gluten free logos on our packaging! Many of our oats—including some of our oatmeal cups—are organic. Our gluten free oats are handled with care to ensure our strict gluten free quality standards are met.
