Where do you get your steel cut oats. I have NEVER seen them in the store!:grumble:

  • I usually get mine at a normal grocery store, but there's more variety at the health store.

    I see them at Krogers and other stores. I like the Trader joe's brand and buy those. Or get some from the health food store where I work.
    And I bet you can get them from Amazon.com.

    I love steel cut oats and eat them every day with a sliced apple. I live in a small town with two grocery stores that both sell them in the cereal aisles. They can be hard to find -- look for the Bob's Red Mill area, which has other products in similar small bags. We have a health food store that also sells them in bulk, but I don't buy them there because I don't know how long they've been sitting in the bins (the health food store doesn't have a lot of business).

    The past few months I've been ordering them from Amazon because I have a student Prime membership and don't pay shipping. I can buy them online for a better price than in the grocery store, so I buy several packages and leave them in the freezer.

    I get them at the "Bulk Barn"

    Quaker makes them, but not all grocery stores stock them, I've noticed.

    Aldi's / sometimes. I think I've bought at Trader Joe's. Read the directions before you buy. Millville/ Aldi's can be cooked quickly on the stove. Others have longer prep time.
  • Cost Co ... large bag at a good price & I like it better than the Quaker Oats I was use to

    I bought mine at a Winn Dixie grocery store. They were on the bottom shelf with the store brand oats and are in a round canister. Guess there isn't a huge demand for them yet. They do take longer to cook, but I like the texture. It's chewier. Quaker is the brand that I bought. Good luck!

    edited for more information.

    My regular grocery store has them, but they're in the "health market" area with all the gluten-free, organic, "hippie" stuff.

    I've never bought them but I've seen them on iherb.com.

    This is the search I made : http://www.iherb.com/search?kw=steel+cut+oats&x=0&y=0#p=1

    QEP304 is my discount code if you haven't ordered from them before.

    I get them at my regular grocery store, but I do prefer the ones in the bulk bins to the Bob's Red Mill ones I find in the bags near the healthy stuff or the other oatmeal.

    Sometimes they are called "Irish" oatmeal. I see them in Trader Joe's, if you have one.
