Thunder...I gotta ? for you.

why does cream of rice not stick to you like oatmeal and cream of wheat?

You're STARVING 10 mins after you have the stuff.:scratch:

Told ya I don't get all up in the research of things...I know you got the answer.

My guess would be the lower fiber content.

:ditto:

Not only the fiber but the glycemic index varies too.

I wouldn't say cream of wheat "sticks" either....

[Pandora]

I don't even find oats "stick." And that goes for rolled oats, steel cut oats etc. I'm always hungry in an hour or so at the most.

I think the lower fiber content may be part of the reason.

I also think it is a trial and error process. It seems that some carbs affect people in a different way. I can eat oatmeal and be full for several hours. Give me the equivalent in sweet potatoes (same calories/carb content) and I am starving an hour later. Whole wheat pasta don't fill me up either, unless I eat a TON of it.

[Pandora]

If I eat pasta of any type I'm full for hours. Weird how different foods affect different people, huh?
