Oats: Cooked / Uncooked.. does it matter?

[mcbruiser]

Alright, I've been set straight about cooked vs raw eggs whites.

Now, before I waste more time.. does anyone know if there's anything wrong with eating uncooked oats, as in Quaker Oats? I can't imagine there is, but who knows.

I used to mix a cup of raw oats with a carton of egg beaters and blend it up into an egg white/oatmeal shake, which was really convenient.

The only thing wrong with raw oats is that they have the taste and consistency of cardboard.

i blend up my oats in the blender for a good 3-4 mins. put the oats in the blender alone... i use to put everything in the blender (oats, protein powder, water) and it didnt mix well...

yeah, it depends on what brand you buy. cheap oatmeal tastes like cardboard. but good quality oatmeal should have a nnutty flav to em
