Quaker Oats

While searching for a good cholesterol supplement online, a friend of mine told me that I should visit the Quaker Oats website.

Curious as to why, I learned that he wanted me to read an interesting question in their FAQ page. The question goes, "Do oats contain cholesterol?"

Do you know the answer? Here it is:

"No. Cholesterol is only found in foods sourced from mammals, birds or fish, and since oats are a grain product they do not contain cholesterol. An easy way to remember which foods contain cholesterol is to ask yourself whether the product came from something that used to walk, fly or swim. If so, it contains cholesterol."

Well, that's something I didn't know until now. :D
