I use them to make delicious hot cereal (more like cream of wheat than oatmeal textured)! I'm not sure what else they can be used for except that cookie recipe on the package.
Huh.
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Man, I'm indoctrinated by wheat. All these things to try and add back up to it.
Well, yeah. Kind of the staple and basis of western cookery. (You could move to rural Mongolia! Unless the whole experimenting with rice milk means you also have a milk allergy.) It kind of blows my mind that wheat is one of those foods suddenly becoming more expensive, because, staple food. Those things are staples because they're always available.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ARGH!
I just spent four hours trying to solve a problem that didn't exist!!
Sorry. I just had to vent.

I just told my brother via email and he called asking about the "Ethiopian Child Exchange Program." My brother is not ready for prime time.
Hah! He clearly went through the same How To Be an Uncle program as my uncles did!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kind of the staple and basis of western cookery.
Yet coeliac disease affects 1% of people in the US.
Wasn't wheat brought to the US with the colonists? I just wonder if there are situations where someone was experimenting with an alternate flour and found that the recipe was much-improved by using oat/rice/quinoa instead. But with the partial substitutions and the xanthan gum boosting it still leaves wheat as the king of the crops.

I always get confused about which vegetables were native to the Americas and which were brought over by Europeans. Corn is definitely Western Hemisphere, right? In which case, high fructose corn syrup may be slow-acting revenge for firewater and smallpox-y blankets...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Veganomicon has a who bunch of gluten-free recipes, including chocolate chip cookies made with oat flour. I've never tried them, though pretty much every else I've tried from this cookbook has been good. (Well, except the tofu dill salad, but I don't really like dill, so I'm not sure why I made that one to begin with.)
