Oats so simple..

[Sweethearts]

Can someone please explain the rule regarding Oats so simple porridge sachets as a HeB? Been reading that you have to have a Ryvita also with it to count as a heb?

 

[Sweethearts]

anyone??

It doesn't have enough fibre to just have it alone, so somewhere on the same day you need to have a ryvita to make up enough fibre content.

Ok thank you

But if you don't want the ryvita you don't need to have it

Really? so would the porridge still be classed as a heb on it's own then? x

Yep - you may not get the full fibre boost but will pick that up elsewhere in your diet too

I have Oat so Simple for brek, and can't think what good 1 Ryvita would be (I mean, who eats just one....) so I have a sesame Ryvita, in a poly bag and bash it with a rolling pin until it's crumbs, then pop it in the bowl with the OsS and milk and microwave the lot - it gives the cereal a scrummy nutty taste x
