What's the diff b/w old-fashioned oats & steel cut

[cransplash]

I heard a lot of great things about steel cut oats, but how do they differ from old-fashioned oats (other than texture)?

Which one is "better" for you?

There is no difference other than the texture/shape. One isn't better than the other.

Steel-cut aren't rolled, they are cut. They generally have more calories than regular, old-fashioned. But they are also higher in fiber and protein. I find that they are more satisfying and keep me fuller for a longer amount of time for that reason.
