Which flavor is better-- the oats or this buttermilk flavor? Thanks!

My favorite is the whole wheat, oat and honey. The buttermilk seems to me a bit bland, but then, I like hearty breads, rather than white bread, too. The whole wheat, oat and honey is flavorful and light--just right, to me.

Hi Janet - I haven't used it like oatmeal but I cook it and use in salads. I simmer it in salted water 40-45 minutes, drain and rinse and its ready to go. This is *not* the semi-pearled variety most commonly seen in the US. The pearling process wears off some of the nutritious bran layer so it cooks a little faster. This wheat is not pearled, so it retains all its nutrition. A bit of extra cooking time seems a small price to pay for whole, nutritious, not to mention yummy, grain. Try searching on "einkorn porridge". I found a recipe that said to pulse the grains in a blender prior to cooking. This cuts the cooking time in half and may be what you're looking for.

I used the "antique white" one and it tasted like a vanilla buttercream flavor. I had always heard that fondant was gross and so I expected it to be awful. It was really tasty, and everyone kept raving over the great flavor. Hope that helps!

Try mixing it with coconut oil if you want a buttery flavored spread. Actually, I prefer ghee for this purpose. It takes a very small amount of ghee to get a very buttery flavor. I usually just use this for cooking as it is less expensive than ghee. Fat is necessary in our diets. The old propaganda about how bad saturated fats were was based on false data. Scientific studies have found that the opposite is true - but all saturated fats are not the same. Animal based fats are more problematic for many people to digest. That's why some buttery flavor added to coconut oil works very well. Someone posted that it will never taste like real butter. It IS real butter that has been dehydrated. Most likely this person has never actually tasted "real" butter. The flavor varies according to what the cows were fed. The consistency is what is different after being dehydrated just like the consistency of any dehydrated product is not the same as it was originally even after re-hydrating it. The calorie content is the same because only the water has been removed.

I've tried both but could not really taste a difference. I use Nido every day in my coffee and have used it with cold cereal. It does have a "cooked" milk flavor but they all do. I use a wisk and it disolves easily. I buy it now at walm*** at a very low price.

Nope, I use 2% milk. It's good with any milk, might taste better with buttermilk but that's also more fattening.

They're both delicious! It really depends on what you plan to use it for. I like to mix the chocolate PB in with my oats & smoothies. I love the PB & chocolate combo! You can always buy the reg PB and add cocoa powder to it yourself.

Not sure about nutritional differences because I have not compared labels between the two, but I can tell you there is a significant taste difference. We won't go back to quick or minute oats, certainly not microwave oats. Yes, these take longer to prepare, but I believe you will be well pleased with the results. If you want to compare to your oats, the Bob's have per serving: 3g fat, .5g saturated fat, 29g total carbs, 5g dietary fiber, 1.6g soluble fiber, 3.4g insoluble fiber, 0 sugars, and 7g protein. Seriously, try these.

I've used both and as a personal preference, I prefer the orange. It's a bit sweeter and a bit more pronounced in salads.

Any citrus with any dairy product will always taste weird. Just use a non flavored black tea like an English breakfast tea, it was made to go with dairy.

Well to be honest, I haven't tried the real butter. I have been using the popcorn/oil/salt combo package that I bought off Amazon which is delicious by the way!

Don't know. This is the only kind I've tried. Didn't know there was such a thing 3 years ago, now I really like it, a good change with oatmeal!

Thanks Charles! I chose strawberry then and still love it. It's about to finish so your comment is useful now if not then :D . This time I will check out chocolate peanut butter. Take care..

Agree w/Jeff...haven't tried all flavors,but the ones I did try taste what they were called. Watermelon is my fav so far.

Fist off it is cheaper and there is one more oz. in bisquick. I think that it is as good if not better. I put a bit of real vanilla. Sometime I replace half the milk with buttermilk.

Orangy-yeasty. I usually put it in with my tangerine flavored Emergen-C, and it actually is a nice taste for me. But if you don't like yeasty tastes....

Personally, I prefer the orange (though still more expensive to buy online than at Whole Foods or at Sprout's) and am really glad it is priced less than the lemon - it is my favorite!
