Today I am trying out Lavish. It is old fashion instant oatmeal flavored with dark chocolate. One serving has 160 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, 3 grams of dietary fiber, 4 grams of protein and 12 grams of sugar. This product caught my eye at the grocery store because one of the things I like to eat is old fashion oatmeal sprinkled with dark chocolate chips and a little bit of sweetener.
When I compare the ingredients of one serving of old fashion oatmeal with chocolate chips, I come up with 220 calories, 7.5 grams of fat, 6 grams of fiber, 6 grams of protein, and 6 grams of sugar.
Even though the old fashion oatmeal has more calories and fat, it has more fiber and protein and less sugar. Which one do you think is healthier? I would say the old fashion oatmeal.
Well, in my opinion the Lavish old meal is not as good as old fashion oatmeal with dark chocolate chips!
