Anyone just open the packet of those instant Quaker Oats and just eat them without cooking them? I was thinking about doing this, seems like I could get easily calories this way. Thoughts?
I’ve never eaten dry, but I’ve eaten with milk like cereal.Anyone just open the packet of those instant Quaker Oats and just eat them without cooking them? I was thinking about doing this, seems like I could get easily calories this way. Thoughts?
Yes^. But they’re also pre-cooked before packaging. That’s why they cook in like 3 minutes. The cellulose is already broken down during processing.There’s only a handful of grains that are safe to eat raw. Oatmeal is one of them. Instant oats are just finely ground oats. So I powder 3 cups of oats then add 4oz broccoli sprouts or spinach, 2Tbs of honey and 3 cups of water. That’s a 1,000 cal shake. It’s very watery this way, but makes it easy to chug and the honey makes it delicious. You can add protein powder to it too if you want.
No digestion issues.
I use a 32oz nutribullet 900 series. That thing is a Haus!
Haha. That’s a **** ton of oats! And true! Oats are so good for you.Indeed you are correct, I had forgot about that. I find that Instant oats cost too much. And I pay $8 for a 10lb box of Quaker oatmeal. Comes out to an extra 6300 cals a week for only about $3. I’ve been hard pressed to find anything else that healthy/ inexpensive.
Goes like wallpaper paste with 2 little a water lolLol why? Can’t just add a small amount of hot water and wait 2 mins? Eating dry oats sound gross haha dry mouth central! Pretty sure you won’t be able to cram my more in than just making a bowl up to be honest, trying to combat the dry mouth with water....
Now your just over complicating things...Lol why? Can’t just add a small amount of hot water and wait 2 mins? Eating dry oats sound gross haha dry mouth central! Pretty sure you won’t be able to cram my more in than just making a bowl up to be honest, trying to combat the dry mouth with water....
Well, I kinda meant that too, haha, but mixing it with other food seems more appetizing. I’m more than likely gonna try eating them straight out of the packet as well, and see if it’s reasonable to use as a packable snack.I literally thought you meant just eating oats out of the pack, not mixed with anything
Sure, you could do that. Many people do that with overnight oatmeal. Overnight oatmeal is a great, quick, and delicious way to eat oatmeal. I like overnight oatmeal because it takes the cooking process out. Don't get me wrong, I love cooked oatmeal, but there are times when I just want to come home and eat my oatmeal without cooking. You can add anything you want to overnight oatmeal and the longer you let it sit, the flavors mesh together more. I would not add anything crunchy or hard because it will become soggy.Anyone just open the packet of those instant Quaker Oats and just eat them without cooking them?
