3 tsp of sugars per serving
This includes both naturally occurring and added sugars. According to the USDA, every man woman and child in the US consumes approximately 80 pounds of caloric sweeteners per year! That works out to 25 tsp of sugars per day, or 400 extra calories!

Nice! 100% whole grain
Great job! Whole grains are a great source of fiber and other nutrients. Fiber is one of the most important things we need in our diet. Here is what fiber does for you: - Fiber helps your body process food from one end to the other. - Fiber plays an important role in mediating the blood sugar spikes from carbohydrate-laden food. Whole grains are not the only way to get fiber, BUT by choosing them instead of processed grains you've made a smart choice.

Contains artificial flavors. Learn why
Companies add artificial flavors to products to make them taste better. They are created in a lab and the formulations are guarded as trade secrets. Flavorings can compensate for flavor loss during processing, substitute for ingredients, lower production costs and increase shelf stability. Artificial flavorings are cheaper to source than natural flavors and are perceived as "worse" than natural flavors. They are more stable (and usually less chemically complex) than natural flavors. Artificial flavors are not necessarily bad for you from a health perspective. however, people with food sensitivities or allergies may want to avoid artificial flavors if they are unnamed. You can always contact the manufacturer for more information.

Natural flavors added. Learn why
Companies add flavorings to make products taste better. They are created in a lab and the formulations are guarded as trade secrets. Flavorings can compensate for flavor loss during processing, substitute for ingredients, lower production costs and increase shelf stability. Natural flavorings are more expensive to source than artificial flavors, but tend to be better received by consumers. People sensitive to MSG, vegans, vegetarians and those with allergies should pay special attention to the phrase "natural flavorings" since glutamates, animal products or allergens may be the source of natural flavors. You can always contact the manufacturer for more information.

How we grade of plain oats
If oats are all the same (one ingredient), then why do they get different grades? First, not all oats are the same. Various cuts of oats remove/retain different amounts of fiber and sugar. The slight variations between these oats can make the difference between a B and an A grade. Even between two of the "same" products, the nutrition may vary due to processing differences. For example, one steel cut oats with 5 grams of fiber and 0 grams of sugar will rate better than steel oats with 4 grams of fiber and 1 gram of sugar. Generally speaking, the oats with the best nutrition are whole oats. Next in line are steel cut oats, followed by rolled oats, then quick oats, and finally instant oats. Bottom line: Any plain oatmeal is a good choice. If you don't have the time to make whole oats or steel cut oats, regular oats are fine. Try adding a sprinkle of ground flax seeds or fresh cut fruit to offset the fiber lost in processing.
