To test the hypothesis that two 40 gm serving of Oat-based breakfast cereals compared to an
equicaloric amount of a ready-to-eat Oat-based breakfast cereal will give greater satiety
over the 4 hour period following breakfast.

The subjects will be randomly assigned to one of these three breakfasts and then given a
Visual analogue scales of hunger and satiety which will be completed at baseline, 30, 60,
120, 180, and 240 minutes. Subjects will return on 2 other days separated by at least a week
to repeat the breakfast test.
