Thanks I bought a few
Only managed to match Coles for 1hr
This oat milk would not be Bobby approved.
Now we're talking!
I thought the whole order limit thing was because of COVID hoarders.
Shouldn't that be removed by now?
If there was no limit i really would have bought 200. Covid hoarder for life!
I hate having to buy stuff like this all the time would rather buy in bulk by the entire box. 1L is like a day or less.
Back in stock now it seems
I'm just gonna post this in the hope that I don't get negged to oblivion, but recently I've been reading that oats are amongst the most pesticide treated crops around. As such I've only purchased organic since. I'm sure the levels are safe for human consumption, but my OCD/Anxiety/ADHD got the better of me π
Good to buy organic for some things, if you are worried. Always over twice the price.. I'm sure people eat worse things than normal oats.

you should also read up on rice and how much arsenic is in rice and rice products. Australia sells rice that has over 3x the legal arsenic levels allowed in most other countries.And yet no one has ever died from eating it. I wonder why the allowable arsenic level in other counties is so low?
Its known how extremely dangerous arsenic is. Especially to kids. And they know exposure to it gives you many illnesses, and its carcinogenic and causes cancer.
People die of illness and millions die of cancer every year and we can never really pinpoint what caused most of their cancers.
No one has ever died for eating it? Unlikely.@ego22: Canβt say Iβve done heaps of research, but I would be surprised if there is a single recorded death from rice based arsenic poisoning in Australia. I am open to being proven wrong.
@djsweet: Rice is not tiny packets of solid arsenic if thats what you think im saying. Its more of a slow burn get sick. Like smoking. You wouldn't die if you had a spoon full. It does many things and it would impossible to trace back to what actually caused the illnesses.
"In addition to skin cancer, long-term exposure to arsenic may also cause cancers of the bladder and lungs. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified arsenic and arsenic compounds as carcinogenic to humans and has also stated that arsenic in drinking-water is carcinogenic to humans.
Other adverse health effects that may be associated with long-term ingestion of inorganic arsenic include developmental effects, diabetes, pulmonary disease and cardiovascular disease. Arsenic-induced myocardial infarction in particular can be a significant cause of excess mortality.
Arsenic is also associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes and infant mortality, with impacts on child health (1), and exposure in utero and in early childhood has been linked to increases in mortality in young adults due to multiple cancers, lung disease, heart attacks and kidney failure (2). Numerous studies have demonstrated negative impacts of arsenic exposure on cognitive development, intelligence and memory (3).
Its more of a slow burn get sick.
Yep, it's called chronic disease, the petrochemical medical-industrial complex's goose of golden eggs.
@ego22: Red meat is a known carcinogen but no one seems to be worried about that.
I also thought the whole arsenic in rice was more of a concern in the USA, not Australia.
Always recommended to wash rice well anyway before cooking.
@G-rig: Washing rice does very little to remove arsenic, but refining it does remove it. That's one area in which white rice wins over wholegrain rice.
And the concern over arsenic in rice is most pronounced on Asia, not US or Australia.
Red meat is a known carcinogen but no one seems to be worried about that.
Come again?? Do you not see the mainstream campaign against meat every day and night, and telling us to eat all sort of fake meat made of pea or bugs?? The research saying that red meat is carcinogenic is part of that campaign, and it's all based on factory farming meat, not organically raised grass fed cattle. It's bull shit… literally!
@wisdomtooth: C'mon, organically grass fed, humanely slaughtered etc are all buzz words trying to sugar coat the nasties in those industries. Best to avoid red and processed meat, it's worse than any risk of arsenic in grains (which are fed to the cattle anyway). Group 2a carcinogen.

Plant milks are the way to go, most people are lactose intolerant to some extent and unaware as it isn't designed for humans (but baby cows), but are too brainwashed and/or stick in their ways.
Best to avoid red and processed meat
Funny how you lumped red and processed there in the same sentence β you've a fruitful career in tobacco marketing, if you so wish.
C'mon, organically grass fed, humanely slaughtered etc are all buzz words trying to sugar coat the nasties in those industries.
I see you've done the same lumping "organically grass fed" and "humanely slaughtered." Well played, but we can see through the game. Organic and grass fed has nothing to do with being nice to the animal; it's about being nice to us. It just so happens that being nice to the animal is in our self-interest, as better raised animals are healthier to us (who would've thunk it?!).
And, yes, there is corruption in the organic market, if that's what you were implying. But that doesn't change the value of eating clean meat (i.e. not factory farmed). And, btw, factory farmed white meat β fish and poultry β are far worse than factory farmed red meat; they are fed far more antibiotics and other drugs. The cleanest of the factory farmed meat is pork, a red meat, which doesn't require a whole lot of drugs, as pigs are naturally very resilient, hence why their popularity in farming over human history (though they've been artificially selected to be even more resilient).
@wisdomtooth: Mate everyone knows processed meats like salami and mince are very bad for you. Anyway can't be bothered arguing, most people like to be told good things about their bad habits and that bacon is alright. High fat and cholesterol cause heart disease.
everyone knows processed meats like salami and mince are very bad for you.
- Mincing is not processing; it's a cut. You can have it sliced, minced or whole.
- Whether cold cuts are good or bad depends on the processing. Industrial processing, yeah, is bad, but artisanal processing, generally isn't (it's just to scalable).
bacon is alright.
Bacon is alright. In fact, it's super healthy. It just depends how the pigs are raised and how the meat is cured. Again, industrial bacon from factory farmed pigs, yeah, is bad. Very bad. (Not as bad as factory farmed chicken or fish, though.) But artisanal bacon from free range, chemical free pigs is excellent.
High fat and cholesterol cause heart disease.
@G-rig: That's Michael Gregor's vegan blog! Of course he'll say bacon is bad! π
Why? Bc he's an Adventist. Nothing against 7th Day Adventists, but that's a religious, not a medical reason for veganism. He does present medical research, but all he does is filter out all research showing any benefit of eating animal products. And all pro-vegan studies compare vegan diets to factory farmed, chemically processed omnivore diets, never to adequately raised animals.
@wisdomtooth: I don't know if he is but he's an MD. Pretty dulled down for the general population but there are plenty of other medically based articles with scientific evidence I could present but it sounds like you don't want to know anyway.
oats are amongst the most pesticide treated crops around. As such I've only purchased organic since.
Do you know that organic doesn't mean pesticide free?
Organic crops can still use pesticide, the pesticides allowed for organic farming are just something that could be considered natural. That doesn't make it better or safer or healthier for you.
Cyanide is 100% natural after all…
So organic is not a safety standard.It's also terrible from a crop yield perspective.
Looking at oats, organic oats yield only 20% compared to modern farming.It's true that organic is a first world luxury due to the tremendous inefficiency of organic crops.
So if you are worried about pesticide use on oats then you should eat normal oats because modern pesticides are more efficient so you need less pesticide compared to organic farming.
No, the concern with synthetic pesticides, like glyphosate, not natural ones. Garlic works as a pesticide β who's worried about that?? No one.
So why are you only concerned with synthetic pesticides and not natural ones?
Organic pesticides are dangerous and they have been "grandfathered" with current regulations and do not have to pass the same stringent safety tests that synthetic pesticides do.
For example, organic farmers can treat fungal diseases with copper solutions. Unlike modern, biodegradable, pesticides copper stays toxic in the soil for ever.
Or another example, the organic insecticide rotenone (in derris) is highly neurotoxic to humans β exposure can cause Parkinson's disease. But apparently that's okay because it's natural?rotenone (in derris) is highly neurotoxic to humans
Not so, says Wikipedia:
Rotenone is classified by the World Health Organization as moderately hazardous. It is mildly toxic to humans and other mammals, but extremely toxic to insects
.
Organic pesticides are dangerous and they have been "grandfathered"
Cui bono? π
So why are you only concerned with synthetic pesticides and not natural ones?
Bc we are not prepared to detox from synthetic substances our ancestors did not face throughout evolution. The same applies to refined substances, which our ancestors never faced in the concentrations we find in foods and our environments today.
@wisdomtooth: Define organically
Most meat is not healthy by nature.So you are saying bacon is healthier than oats,
funny guy. Probably part of the carnivore keto cult no doubt lol.
Usually I don't do this but couldn't help myself. Bought 10x as soon as Coles opened at 7am. There was still plenty of stock for others so didn't feel too bad
Oat milk has been a god send lately. Lactose intolerance recently ramped up to a full 10/10. Switched to oat milk and barely notice the difference.
Also been consuming way less sugar since switching.
how do you knew you have lactose intolerance and how sugar consumption has reduced ?
How do you know what day it is
by Calendar, do you check you lactose by calendar too ?
Lactose was medically diagnosed by a pathology test. The ramping up to 10/10 was due to any time I had anything with lactose in it, I would definitely know about it. I have avoided dairy products for two weeks now and dont have those same issues.
As for sugar consumption, I have a 440ml coffee every day. Look at the sugar content of lactose free milk and then look at the sugar content of Oat milk and bam… Maths.
Does the pathology test differentiate lactose intolerance from A1 beta-casein intolerance?
@wisdomtooth: No idea but I dont think so. I think they are just testing your ability to digest lactose. Pretty confident that it is lactose, milk, cheese even milk chocolate will cause issues.
@nedski: If hard cheeses cause it, it's not. Even if yoghurt or kefir cause it, it's not either. There is next none lactose left in fermented dairy; it's all consumed by the lactobacilli (they've no reason to stop eating it, really). Rather, it's the casein in the milk that's causing the issues. Try goat's milk, which also has lactose but no A1 beta-casein, and see if you have the same issues. If you don't, then you can also try Jersey or Guernsey cows' milk (e.g. Maleny Dairies'), which is low in A1 beta-casein. Even better: have raw Jersey/Guernsey cows' milk. Rather than causing problems; it'll fix them!
@nedski: Exactly there is no need for it these days - unless you are a baby cow. There is a reason so many humans are overweight.
Thats what 50-70 years of brain washing from the dairy industry does (which sponsor a lot of these studies). Some people need to go to an abitoir to see what really goes on.
There is a reason so many humans are overweight.
Yes, there is: seed oils and too frequent carbs (especially grains: breads, pasta, etc). Exactly what the health authorities the world over, copycatting the USFDA, have recommended for the last half century, which is precisely the timeframe in which obesity and metabolic diseases have gone through the roof. Thats what 50-70 years of brain washing from the grain industry does (which sponsor a lot of these studies, especially the ones Michael Greger cherrypicks for his religious agenda).
@wisdomtooth: Yeah that's it lol.
the meat and dairy industry are clever and to blame for this carb phobia, it's quite ridiculous. Carbs and glucose are the best forms of energy - the fats are the problem (particularly saturated fat and cholesterol in meat and oils). Fats are 9 cal/g compared to 4cal/g - a lot of people don't realise that these foods are a lot more calorie dense. That, and people like being told good things about their bad habits, being told you can eat as much eating bacon and cheese as you like. There is typically not much fibre in it either which makes a big difference.
The fat you eat is the fat you wear!
Most of these keto people aren't even losing any fat, nore really get into ketosis if they eat more carbs than one slice of bread or half a banana a day - super restrictive.it's just the same as Atkins and other rebranded fads. I'm pretty sure it's all the junk food, dairy and meat eaters with heart disease and diabetes driving up my health care premiums.
I'm pretty sure it's all the junk food, dairy and meat eaters with heart disease and diabetes driving up my health care premiums.
Yeah that's it lol. How often do we see an obese person eating beef jerky vs slurping an ice-cream or eating a bag of cheaper? It's the carbs they crave. Why? Bc they need it? No, it is the bad gut bacteria they're riddled with, and are the junk food industry's accomplices, who cause them to crave the carbs. Fast for 3 days, get'em killed, stick to a low carb diet β no need to stay in keto long term, it should be used as treatment, not maintenance diet β and the kilos will just melt away.
The fat you eat is the fat you wear!
Tell me you don't know our bodies manufacture fat from carbs π Where do you think animal fat is from??
Fats are 9 cal/g compared to 4cal/g - a lot of people don't realise that these foods are a lot more calorie dense.
A lot more satiating. How much meat can one eat really (vs bread, pasta, pastry, etc).
Carbs and glucose are the best forms of energy
No, they aren't; ketones are. That's what fats get converted to, and are directly used by mitochondria in our cells (including the brain!).
the fats are the problem (particularly saturated fat and cholesterol in meat and oils).
That's the whole sugar conspiracy that's already been debunked for over a decade now! Saturated fat is GOOD for us! (along with monounsaturated ones) Much better than PUF, especially at the refined rates we've come to consume them in industrialised (i.e. fake) "foods"! The more polyunsaturated a fat, the less stable it is, the more likely to go rancid, oxidised, and cause free radical damage in the body. Some PUF is good, especially if balanced between the various omegas (3, 6 and 9), but the best fat for the human body is saturated fat. We're lipivores, and our main evolutionary advantage β our brains β is full of it. Humankind only advanced and had an explosive growth in population when our brains expanded, and that only happened after domesticating fire, and therefore being able to consume more meat (especially fat), most likely left over on preys by other, more capable, predators.
@wisdomtooth: Sure mate.
I think you've got it the wrong way around.https://www.keranews.org/health-science-tech/2017-11-13/why-β¦
People usually crave sugar, fat and salt, but you can retrain your taste buds once you cut it out or reduce.
No one is becoming obease from too much fruit, rice or potatoes mate.
