The cooking time

No seriously...
They are a whole oat cut into like 4-5 pieces and they still contain the whole grain as well as the bran. This gives them a more nutty taste, more texture, and of course more healthier for you.
Instant oats and rolled oats have been pressed (rolled) and also steamed some to pre cook them. Rolled are cooked less than instant oats. Naturally the more you process them the less nutrition they carry and taste I feel (taste part is opinion, nutrition part is fact). Personally the only things I would use these for are cookies, filler, and granola.
