>>I just checked out prices on oatmeal to use for feeding various worms.
These

>>
>> Gerber's Baby mixed cereal  $2.38/lb
>> Quaker Oats Instant oatmeal in individual packets  $4.38/lb
>> Quaker Oats Regular Oatmeal  $1.48/lb
>> Quaker Oats Quick Oatmeal  $1.48/lb
>> House brand (Finast) Regular Oatmeal  $0.93/lb
>> House brand (Finast) Quick Oatmeal  $0.93/lb
>>
>> The price advantage goes to house brand oatmeal. The Quick requires 2-3
>>minutes cooking, the regular 5-6 minutes. I don't know if they work as dry
>>addition as the baby cereal does. I have tried the regular oatmeal -
cooked
>>and it seems to work fine for Grindals. I have not tried the Quick or
Regular
>>as dry addition sprinkled on top. I'll let you all know when I do.
