because it has "steel" in the name and it makes them feel masculine
>get up before the sun, oats required
Well frick, now I just want some oatmeal.
Well which are better?
Clearly straight oats because soijack ignores them and not steel cut because he responds positively to them. Have you ever used nerdchan before? You're supposed to shape your opinion based on this valuable post
Steel cut are usually less processed
But I can’t eat them tbh, too chewy
I had “Steel Cut Oats” once in my life at some little cafe inside Penn’s Station in Philly. The only reason I got it was because of IST. It was fine I guess. Low calorie but obviously very bland
depends. do you eat them raw?
then I would argue it is fine to go for the cut ones.
do you soak them overnight / cook them?
then go for oats.
Oats suck anyways
Where my gritchads at
what is grit? guessing you don't mean tiny bits of rock
It's coarsely ground hominy.
You typically make a porridge out of them same as you do with oats and there's as many ways to do that as you can think of.
It's called corn
Hominy is a specifically treated kind of corn.
is this the same as semolina?
Grits are cornmeal or ground hominy, which is nixtimlized corn (corn soaked in an alkaline solution and then hulled and washed).
It's essentially the same as polenta, though I think they're made with different corn varieties.
>corn
grits are based but they are shit for being lean and also Black folk like them so they're not based
Oats are superior to corn, but grits are pretty fricking nice ngl ong fr fr no cap
I prefer yellow corn grits to white. With a poached egg on top. Delicious. But not particularly nutritious, grits are really just cheap filler.
>he doesn't like the crunch
lol
Sometimes I make overnight oats with steel cut oats, milk, ginger, black pepper, and turmeric. Love the mild crunchiness.
Quick oats are rolled oats that have been parboiled or something and sometimes chopped up finer so they cook quicker. Don't know what he's on about though, quick oats have the absolute worst mushy paste consistency of all oats.
>Pepper with milk in oatmeal
You okay bro
Only good with a bunch of cheese, bell peppers, habanero/jalapeno and onion
Rolled oats are better in every single way unless you literally boil the frick out of them 45 minutes every day.
It's a women's magazine memefood that has survived into the digital age. I like them, but they cost more than oats, and take longer to make, so I eat oats like I'm someone who's healthy everyday instead of who signs up for bootcamps and buys water infusers once a year.
i really don't fricking understand this shit about the fiber content
If you cook them you are processing them, so you are reducing their fiber, how the frick does it matter if they're precooked or what
it doesn't make any fricking sense. Same thing I heard a doctor say about fiber and making smoothies, no one's fricking eating veggies and fruit whole, they are chewing them, how the frick is that any different from cutting them up with a blender (prechewing) and then swallowing them?
This fricks with me so bad, especially considering trying to figure out the glycemic load of these foods
>they are chewing them, how the frick is that any different from cutting them up with a blender (prechewing) and then swallowing them?
Your blender will grind things way, way finer than your teeth ever will. Finer grind = more surface area for your digestive enzymes to work which means you absorb things way faster than you normally would. A smoothie is way closer to drinking juice with a lot of pulp than it is to actually eating a fruit.
There's some evidence that modern white flour can be bad for you for this same reason; it hits your bloodstream so quickly that it's almost like eating sugar.
yes, the logic is sound, until you actually blend stuff up and realize that all the fiber is located in the skin, the skin which does not blend very well. Moreover, soluble fiber is digestible and turns into a goo in your stomach, the other type of fiber is indigestible which means it doesn't matter if it's in one piece or a million pieces, your body can't do anything with it except pass it to your colon.
I'm not talking about refined white flour, in this instance the thing to compare it to would be whole wheat flour.
It isn't about the fiber content, its about how much surface area from the plant material is exposed when it enters your stomach and digestive tract. Your teeth won't extract as much juice from the fruit as your blender does and the fruit will also enter your stomach in larger chunks, which take longer to break down because they have a lower relative surface area to be exposed to the digestive process.
It's like trying to make a sugar water solution with coarse brown sugar vs. powdered sugar. The powdered sugar dissolves much faster than the brown sugar due to its higher relative surface area allowing more sugar to interact with the water at any given time.
Again, the digestible soluble fiber doesn't matter if it's chopped up because it's going to form a goo in your stomach. The indigestible fiber is indigestible and will not be digested even if it is chopped up. The blender is just doing the chewing for you.
My whole point was about the fiber, not anything else, and the notion that processing these plants by cooking or chopping them up somehow reduces the fiber content when it doesn't.
How this applies in the real world is the fact that making a bowl of traditional oats takes like 20-30 minutes, and making a bowl of instant oats takes like 10 seconds. Their fiber content should be the same because the traditional oats just go through the process of being heated to make instant oats in which case are ready to be eaten out of the package. There's absolutely no difference in regards to nutrition, unless you eat your traditional oats without cooking them.
I'm not talking about overall nutrition content, I'm explaining why making a smoothie out of your fruit is different from eating a whole fruit. And the difference is that grinding fruit up too finely let's the juice hit your digestive tract all at once and drastically speeds up the rate at which you digest everything else, beyond what your own teeth would be capable of. It isn't simpy pre-chewing because your blender chews things finer than you ever could.
actually that's wrong. Since the blender is more evenly spreading the fiber, it's also being dispersed better in your stomach.
If you think about chewing a fruit, the skin will be in a few larger pieces while you will just chew up the meat rather easily. The meat has very little fiber in it so it doesn't matter if you chew it or not, it's going to be digested quickly. By dispersing the skin more evenly throughout, it should result in less of a glycemic hit on your system, not more. This is assuming you are blending the whole fruit and not just the meat.
Either way this wasn't the point I was trying to make.
But you've also burst more cells in the fruit and freed up a much larger portion of the juice than you would if you'd just chewed on it. Soluble fiber takes time to break down in your stomach which acts as a time release for the sugar still held in chunks of fruit that you've chewed but not pureed. If you blend the fruit then it doesn't matter that the fiber is equally distributed in a smoothie because the sugar is already flowing freely in water and moves through your stomach just as freely as a glass of juice would if you ate it with a meal.
Leftists are incredibly easy to market to.
You can sell them literally anything if you make them feel like they're better than others.
Quick oats are superior, regular oats have the consistency of glue.
What are quick oats?
Fast cooking oats have a more profound effect on blood sugar and digest much faster
For me it's cream of wheat
>for me its white flour but hot
U mad, darkie?
because cut oats don't need to soak for an hour to be edible, you can just dump hot water from the kettle on it and it's good to go
>because cut oats don't need to soak for an hour to be edible
Neither do regular oats
Steel cut oats have a better texture, they're more chewy. Rolled oats turn into mush. Also I add hulled barley to my oats for more nuttiness and chewy crunch.
