There isn't a lot of packaging hype; what you see in the picture is what you get. Better than oatmeal, the oat bran cooks up in about three minutes. Ratio is 1 part oat bran to 4 parts water. The cereal is ready as soon as it is warm; no need to simmer. Easier still to microwave. The consistency is very creamy, similar to "cream of wheat," but healthier. Add dried fruit, nuts, honey, its a quick and healthy way to start the day.
The package came quickly; the bags have a re-closeable seal, but recommend putting the bran in a new zip loc baggie or other container.
Recommended. |

Like oatmeal it's bland and can handle spices like cinnamon and nutmeg very well. It's nuttier in flavor and grittier in texture than oatmeal. I grew up with this as a hot cereal, in muffins, cakes, breads and pancakes; you know back in the day when people really cooked from scratch :). Doing more cooking at home, not all from scratch, has me replicating Mom's influence in the kitchen. The goal is to eat more healthily with known ingredients. Some people sprinkle it on vegetables, salads and yogurt for texture. It's difficult to find just Oat Bran, it's usually blended with wheat or flavored for kids.
I recently found oat bran is essential for all phases of the DUKAN DIET The Dukan Diet: 2 Steps to Lose the Weight, 2 Steps to Keep It Off Forever ranging from 2 - 4 Tablespoons daily.
As you add oat bran and oat bran items to your menu increase the water intake, your tummy will appreciate it :) |

REID | 3 | 3 | 5 | 1307318400 | Reasonably priced, perfect item for the Dukan diet.! | This is the bran recommended for the Dukan diet, is no more expensive than oatmeal and ideal for the pancakes and other recommendations.Bland taste, as expected, but easy to zip up with a few spices. |
213153 | 213153 | B001E5DRBO | ATP83CPCIC2VH | Surly Joe | 3 | 3 | 5 | 1270080000 | Oat Bran Forever | We use oat bran in muffins, pancakes, bread and a few other home made treats. It's great to get 12 pounds of the stuff delivered all at once and a lot cheaper than buying it in one pound boxes in the grocery store. How do they do it? |

So I ordered the Bergin Nut Oat Bran as recommended by Amazon and I would rate it with 5 stars. I only have two recipes to date from Dr Dukan, one being a pancake and one hot cereal, but they are both delicious and I am sure it is because of the freshness and quality of the Bergin Nut Company Oat Bran. My only complaint is the quantity I ordered and cannot blame anyone but myself for not reading the ad better. Six 32 ounce bags would last me an eternity at 2 tablespoons a day, so I have been giving bags to my friends and hope they will share some new recipes with me. Try it, you will LOVE it!!! |

My husband has lost 27 lbs and I have lost 12lbs since 23 May 20011 when we started the diet. We simply put the required amount of oat bran in 0% fat vanilla yogurt and eat it as at treat. Reminds us of tapioca, and is a necessary part of success in this diet plan. We've just opened our second box of oat bran and are starting our 9th week. We will continue to purchase and use this product. |

You get a whole lot of product for your money. I put it on my yogurt in the morning. I have to find other recipes for this because it's too large of a quantity to use just a couple tablespoons per day. |

Up until a year ago I bought the Giant store brand. Then it disappeared, so I forced to "upgrade" to Quaker Oats bran at at a premium price. Then in January the contents of the Quacker box was reduced by 50%, but the price stayed the same. Enough is enough. Switched to buying from Bergin Nut Company via amazon. The quantity is huge but the price per pound is very reasonable - and it shipped via Amazon Prime. The bran is coarser than the Quaker label. (That's a good thing?) All in all, I am very pleased. |

I put 1 cup of oat bran into 3 cups of water in the microwave and cooked it until it was done. It tastes much better to me than any other type of regular oats I've had before. It is very affordable and delivered right to my house. I will be eating this product alot more in the future. It is a great quality product and it is packaged well for the trip in the box. I am very happy with this product and will order more. |

Oat bran is much more creamy than one-minute quick oat (it just doesn't tastes like oat...). A perfect food for somebody on diet. Just one single tablespoon of oat bran would make you feel very full. |

They either didn't carry it or it was very expensive. We found these on line from the Bergin Nut Company and were very pleased with the price and quality of the product. We eat this every morning and have found it to be a great way to start a busy day. We Have re-ordered several times and will continue to do so. We order our oats through Amazon and have been completely satisfied with there service. |

213164 | 213164 | B001E5DRBO | A1U9YNKKIH57SY | T. Martin | 1 | 1 | 5 | 1313193600 | Great tasting, healthy, and inexpensive. | I don't believe in fad diets, but I do believe in healthy eating. This is a cheap, healthy alternative to boxed cereals and high-carb/fat breakfasts.
My first choice is always steel-cut oats, but they take a while to cook. This only takes 3 minutes in the microwave and tastes delicious. I like to add a scoop of protein powder & a bit of agave syrup and I'm full for hours. My cholesterol is the best it's been in my life and I even lost a few pounds since I started having oats for breakfast. You can eat it plain or add fruit to it to have some variety without negating its health benefits.
Keep these in your pantry and you won't have any excuse for not eating healthy.
Update: My wife "hates oats", but after looking for an alternative to her cereal to lose weight she tried my oat bran (I've also started adding a little Bergin wheat bran to it) and she loves it. I think she now eats more than I do and I've had to increase my ordering frequency.
Plain anything can get boring quickly, but oats can be spiced up with nuts, jellies, yogurt, raisins, etc. There's almost no end to the variety. If you think oats are bland, you may have to look around for ideas, but there's no reason to resort to Fruit Loops :) |

I was looking for a bulk oat bran to make my home made granola recipe. I can now confirm packaging complaints have been resolved. I purchased this via my Amazon Prime and it arrived sealed in a second plastic bag inside a cardboard box. None of the oat bran bags were damaged in shipping so packaging complaints have been fixed.
As for flavor it appears to have great oat bran flavor because the batch of granola I made was my best ever. I added this to my Wish List for shopping of repeatable grocery products so I will be back again to purchase this item. Excellent value, fast shipping, and great taste. Bergin Nut Co has a new customer. |

And I can't say enough about how quickly I receive the oat bran. Thank you so much for the outstanding service. |

213177 | 213177 | B001E5DRBO | A2ZSZRVGGF0YS0 | Cat | 0 | 0 | 5 | 1329177600 | Great product! | I was a little hesitant about ordering this product as I had seen a few of the reviews mention flimsy packaging and older/dated versions of the product. But, my food co-op stopped carrying oat bran in their bulk section and the stuff at the grocery store is prohibitively expensive, so online shopping it is! When it arrived, I found the packaging to be just fine--no spilling or ripping, and I have been able to use the original packaging as the default storage container with no problems.
As far as taste, it tastes like any other oat bran I've tried. Which is to say, it's pretty bland, and a good vehicle for other tastes. I like to add nuts, chopped apples, and a bit of cinnamon to mine. I haven't noticed any bad taste or aftertaste.
Will probably buy again when this supply runs out! |
