I've always heard of OATS being very healthy food but what about nestum. I kinda love both especially I just take a tsp of either and mix it in MILO. But when just eating either one with just a mix of hot water. I kinda prefer nestum over oats.

Just wondering which one do you guys prefer and reason.

I like both but prefer Nestum!

Just tastes better!

I like oats.

Don't really like Nestum because it is sweet.

I usually mix oats with muesli and Probiotic stuff in it. Taste good and it is still very healthy.

I prefer Oats with maggi mee's spice.. taste yummy...

WAH this is the VERY FIRST i've heard Oats+maggi mee's spice .......

i prefer Nestum...it tastes better...smells good too
both are actually the same stuff?

what exactly is muesli and probiotic. nestum more sweet and tasty. oat taste like eating wood. need to add flavor to it

ya.. previous thread on how to prepare oat doesn't helped me much, i need more hint to make oat tastier~~

i'm sick of eating oat with baked tomato beans

you can always add berries, appricots, or fruits inside.. i think oats + raisins should be nice, never try though

Bleargh, I don't like either! Wish I did, it'd be soooo much easier for me to make something quick when malas to think about what to eat!

Nestum has that nestumy smell that makes babies eat.

Oat is more healthy but the oat makers lack the marketing savvy of the Nestle suits.

If you want health go for oats.

Or you could mix both with milo, there's no rule against that.

Nestum is a refined junk food. Don't believe that, get a diabetic to eat this junk everyday and his sugar level will shoot up. Or ask an obese guy to eat it everyday and his weight will shoot up.

Eat the best-Muesli!

What the hell?

Oats, for sureee! Nestum tastes like sh*t to me.

Nothing better than a warm bowl of porridge

i eat those oat mix with corn and spiriluna,,,it's a mix in a packet...try it! not too sweet!

The packet stuff is convenient, just make sure it's not from China.

it is from Kedah company

Muesli from wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muesli

Anyway with Muesli the oats taste a lot better, if I were to just eat oats by itself, I probably mix it with my whey protein therefore it would taste like a milkshake with a good source of fibre.

Nestum is generally not a good idea as it is heavily processed and mixed with high amount of sugar whereas muesli sugar is mainly from its fruits which is far easier to burn or process compared to Nestum.

Cheers

Wahahaa........ berries in malaysia aren't exactly very cheap. , beside strawberry la


WOW this is very surprising. I've always thought both are from same kinda stuff but different way to make it ..hehehe ...
After the EGG topic, i might be considering to get OATS to put in my office .....hehehee

I'm eating oats currently, no special cooking, just some tablespoons of Quaker instant oats then cook with boiled water.

I recall that I mistook Nestum as oats last time and ate it, it tastes much better than oats but then its not as nutritious as oats so I eat oats instead of Nestum. To tell the truth, I almost vomit the first time I eat 8 tablespoons of oats >_>

oats ftw!

When i was young, my mum always made it for me. I had no other choice but to grab Spoonful of milo to mix it so there's a little extra taste in it. When she saw me doing that ... i see the "HAND" coming towards me .....

I know you you feel .... hahahaha ..... at least you didn't have the "HAND" attacking you

i prefer oats cos nestum has higher sodium

if u cant eat oats alone, try mixing ur cooking with oats, tht helps..

my fren usually cook ayam masak sambal with oats in it, n its good

but simple way for me, is put oats with milo, or any other hot drinks

I like raw oats added into my yogurt. Healthy & delicious too!

Why not? I even buy chicken and ikan bilis seasoning to add in...

Try it laaa... Really taste nice....

Since we are on the topic of oats, how does one know if they have high cholesterol without having a blood test?

What are the symtoms of having high cholesterol?

Cheers

dun mix with maggi spice la, maggi spice alone is not good for ur health

hi cholestoral symptons eh....

one tht i know is u feel easily fatigue, n when u instantly get up from bed, u will easily got dizzy...

That sound more like low blood pressure ....hahaha......

My mum in law have high cholesterol and it showed no early symptom or anything. I think that is why it's so deadly quah ......

TONIGHT i must try some of the "EXOTIC" recipe mentioned above.

lol we eat oat to promote health, but adding maggie spices in it made it not so healthy. whats the point..

at least got some healty ingredient in it. oat healthy. maggie not healthy better than eat maggi sup right

healthy+unhealthy=neutral

How abt add some honeystar on it? Jst sparkling a little wil do themagic

I have been eating oats since young. After adding boiling water to your oats (if its instant oats) or after cooking your oats (if non intstant one) then add some condensed milk to it and stir.
Tastes better than plain oats and water. Another alternative to condensed milk is by adding sugar and milk powder. Both is nice to me but i prefer condensed milk.

What about the green algae noodles?

I think all noodles from Asia are crap, just compare with high quality spaghetti from EU, you can instantly tell the difference.

If say you want a healthy one, you may put marmite....

But you have to drinks a lot of water because marmite contain Vitamin B Complex ( if im not wrong )

I'll advise you to avoid condensed milk if possible. I'm sure many regulars here will give the same advice.

Honey is twice as sweet at half the amount, get some quality manuka honey

Eating alone with oats sucks... prefer nestum.

Undeniably, oats is a healthy food.

Instant oats with Milo! YUMMAYYYY

Nestum is ok ... I eat it as a "snack" It doesn't fill me up the way oats can.

I'm going to try the oats with maggi seasoning ... just to taste what it's like

i add both into my morning shake...

Oats, Nestum, Whey protein, milk, assorted fruits... ^^

healthy and it fills up the tummy well...

i like nestum much.. nyum nyum

Hmm flavor wise go for nestum while health wise go for oats .....

Have any1 mixed both before ?

i'm thinking of that also! then the beverage will not be too sweet yet tastes good!
