Among different kinds of oats, Organic Rolled Oats are definitely Food to Live’s best seller. Also known as Old-Fashioned Oats, they are made by steaming and flattening whole oat groats in heavy rollers into flakes with a flat surface. This process allows rolled oats to absorb water easier and cook faster. Moreover, it stabilizes oils within the grain, thus Organic Rolled Oats in bulk can be stored long-term. Every step taken within the process, from rolling to packaging takes place in a Gluten-Free facility; Yes! our Organic Regular Rolled Oats are Gluten-Free. Further,

if comparing Rolled Oats and Quick-Cooking Oats, please note that the latter is derived from oats, that have been cut into pieces before processing. As a result, they cook almost instantly, but usually present with less nutrients and a thicker texture.

Going through little processing, Organic Rolled Oats are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
