Thread: Nutrition facts are nutrition facts, right?

    Nutrition facts are nutrition facts, right?

    Okay, so I've read in a lot of places that old fashion oatmeal is better than instant or quick oats. But when I compare the label between old fashion and quick from Quaker, the nutritional information is the same. So what's the diff? I mean, if they have the same calories, the same fat, the same protein, etc.--why would one be better than the other? Even their new Steel Cut oats are only different in process and a 1/2 gram less fat. Is this just some weird media hype to get people to go back to slaving over a stove for 5 minutes instead of 1? (Or in my case, slave over a microwave. )

    Labels can be quite deceptive ... especially where sugars are concerned...
