Okay oats
I had been happily buying jumbo rolled oats for quite some time when I happened to read an article suggesting that pinhead oats have a lower glycemic index (G.I.). This means that despite being nutritionally similar to their jumbo oat cousins, these oats will raise your blood sugar by less after eating them. Of course the only difference is that pinhead oatmeal is whole oats cut into two or three pieces. Jumbo oats are further processed by steaming and rolling to flatten them. Instant oats are also steamed and rolled and are smaller than jumbo oats. Therefore I thought that if these pinhead oats are slightly better for you, then I may as well give them a try.Compared to more processed oats, these ones are more coarse and take longer to cook properly. The different texture causes them to be more chewy and they have a much more nutty taste that other oats (in my experience). As with other oats, pre-soaking them can help reduce cooking time and allow the oats to absorb more liquid. Everyone has a different preference when it comes to porridge / oatmeal, so it is worth experimenting with different methods of cooking and pre-soaking to find a method that best suits you.These Health Store pinhead oats in my opinion are slightly inferior to the other pinhead oats I bought at the same time,
Mintons Good Food Pre-Packed Pinhead Oatmeal 500 g (Pack of 10)
. Nutritionally, they have (per 100g) more calories and carbohydrates and less protein (although slightly less fat) than the Mintons Good Food ones. I bought both at once as these two brands seemed to be the best value for money pinhead oatmeal for sale, with the best Amazon reviews. I found a few jumbo oats in the bag amongst these Health Store pinhead oats, which was a bit disappointing but by no means disastrous. So it would seem that not all brands of pinhead oats are equal. The nutritional information on my bags has a slightly different energy/calories value from that in the listing photographs at the time of writing. Per 100g, the bags I received had:Energy 367 kcal / 1543kJFat 8.4g (of which saturates 1.3g)Carbohydrate 56.1g (of which sugars 1.0g)Protein 12.1gSalt 0.003gThe only ingredient is pinhead oatmeal, it is produce of the UK and the best before date was over five months away on the date of delivery. For those with allergies, on the bag is stated "ALLERGY ALERT: For allergens see ingredients in CAPITALS also may contain Nuts & Peanuts, Sesame, Soya, Milk, Eggs and Sulphites".The taste and texture of my porridge has changed since replacing my jumbo oats, but certainly not for the worse. I think that I will be happy to stick to pinhead oatmeal from now on but will be buying the Mintons Good Food brand rather than this one. There is nothing wrong with these Health Store oats of course and I wouldn't try to put anyone off buying them.

2 packages were broken, the other 4 ones were not sealed airtight either, you can press the air out of them. Obviously, not happy.
