Oat So Simple

[ClairyFairy82]

Hi )

Just wondering if anyone ones if Oat So Simple count as a healthy extra b? Or are they syns?

I've bought the sachets with original, syrup and apple&blueberry. Should have checked first :-(

Thanks

The original is a HEXB but the others are synned as they have sugar etc in them.

A tip I buy the plain one use as HEXB and add 1 tsp golden syrup (1 syn) and a handful of frozen blueberries

Fab - din't realise the original was hexB- what a donk!

Know how many syns there are for the syrup one?

The HEX B is 1 sachet of oats so simple + 1 ryvita or 1 scan bran x

Thanks for all the replies

I've tried to find out the sun values of the syrup and apple and blackberry ones but ain't having much luck :-(


I've read that the syrup one can be used as a HEb and syn 1.5 but then read that it can't be used as a HEx b and had to syn'd 6.5 so unsure?


Also can't find anything on the apple and blackberry one?

Only the plain one is a HEB I'm afraid. The others will all be 1 syn for every 20 calories.

Hi I also heard that u can use original as a hex b, and that u can have an additional item.my additional item was 1 hifi bar. Is that right too?
Thanks xxx

To be honest I've swapped to ordinary porridge as it's so easy to measure out 35g and add the milk whack it in the microwave ,and it's FAR cheaper. If I feel the need I add a tblspn of golden syrup for 2 syns.
