How to Eat Each Type of Oats
Many people new to oats often wonder whether they need to cook them first. McGarrett’s oats are pre-steamed and can be eaten immediately after mixing with milk, yogurt, or other ingredients. Depending on your dish, you may want a specific texture: for example, rolled oats (red pack) offer a firmer bite, while instant oats (Blue pack) dissolve more easily.
