Good thread!
I have always eaten Oatso Simple as I love porridge but don't have time for scales and measuring jugs in the morning. Having read this thread, I have today bought a kilo of oats in Aldi for 99p. That works out at less than 3p per serving and is about 6 times less than the Oatso Simple
Just worked out that the oats and milk can be measured perfectly in two of my Rosemary Conley measuring cups so no need for scales or jugs yaay! Just hope it tastes nice

Yep
so cheap! Porridge is my favourite breakfast. It's the only thing that keeps the hunger pangs at bay between breakfast and morning break too. I'm keen on trying it with grated apple & cinnamon and I think I'll definitely be trying the choc buttons as a weekend treat. Yummy. A 1kg bag lasts me a couple of months!

I was away for the weekend so couldn't reply to the question about Scott's, but I see everyone else has!!
Sorry I didn't spell it correctly.
Scott's (not Scots) Old Fashioned Porage Oats. No idea why "porage" and not "porridge"! I like it because the oats are not so finely milled as other brands, and it gives a better texture.

Sillysausage I do the same, 1oz porridge is exactly 1/4 cup and a 1/2 cup of semi skimmed milk is 120ml so roughly half a HEX. Its a lot easier than weighing
I did not know that! i always got oatsosimple because it was so handy to measure the milk with the empty sachet.

Or go green and you get an extra hexa and hexb!

I first did SW back in the days before EE and this time around I'm still doing green days, can't cope with only 2 HEXs and the 1/3 sf rule! Know what you mean about getting your head around a new plan, I felt like that on the couple of occassions I've tried an EE day. Just find I get too hungry!
