Grinding My Carbs!!!!!!

[peump]

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?

Interesting concept.. I don't think there should be any reason NOT to do this, however I have never done it before.

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

oatmeal for instance

i just take my desired measurement of oatmeal
put it in a coffee grinder set the grinder on the finest setting and grind
then i put the oatmeal powder in a blender with my desired measurement of protein powder and blend. WA LA

its really not that bad. try it
one reaon i do this is to avoid the unwanted flavor
of these carbs, for i dont enjoy them

Do You have any problems with eatin' the pasta raw?

[SwoleCat]

Hmmm, one doesn't like rice or pasta, yet can consume them raw.........

ooooooookay.

Hey, if you like it, go for it.

Do You have any problems with eatin' the pasta raw?

like what?
when i grind it its becomes pasta powder
then i chug it down with protein and water
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

[peump]

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.

[SwoleCat]

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

That is an awsome idea... I've gotten my gag reflex to act up every time I put a cooked in myu mouth. I'll have to try that!! Thanks bro.

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.
