i've been grinding my carbs in a coffee grinder and mixing them in protein shakes.(rolled oats, steel cut oats, brown rice, and dry pasta)
is there any reason why i should not do this??
the reason i ask is because this is so easy to prepare and consume yet i have not read any other post about others doing it.
I guess not, but is there a reason TO do this?

I dont think there is a reason not to, apart from the fact that it sounds fuking horrible

of these carbs, for i dont enjoy them
Do You have any problems with eatin' the pasta raw?
Hmmm, one doesn't like rice or pasta, yet can consume them raw.........
ooooooookay.

as far as flavor i only have to deal with it for like 5 seconds
any way thanks for all the replies i guess i'll keep ingesting my carbs in this fashion until i have a reason not to :)
i'm actually suprised that nobody else does this
i understand that alot of you probably enjoy eating some or all of these things
but i cant be the only picky eater here.
I personally love rice/pasta/and oatmeal.

I find Oats to be terrible wet, but as a dry powder I can handle them ok.
I have never ground up my brown rice though. When you grind rice, do you just use 1/2 cup dry?
Grits could be done this way too I assume but I dont mind the taste of grits wet.

I blend my raw oats with 10-12 egg whites, cinnemon, and vanilla extract..a few ice cubes... i actually enjoy this drink, just need a big straw.
I do almost the same thing for breakfast. The oats get cut down pretty small in the blender. Not too bad a consistancy and tastes great...to me ;)Quote:

The only concern that I might have with this is during a cutting diet. I would think that the regular oatmeal would be more benifical as well as giving you some fiber. But, for a bulker when you are trying to get as many cals/carbs as possible, yeah.
