"The fiber-rich hull fraction separated from oats during processing."
Separating out just the fiber fraction leaves behind the protein and fat that made whole oats or oatmeal nutritionally valuable — what remains is mostly insoluble bulk. Useful for adding fiber and firming stool, but a step down from a whole-food fiber source like pumpkin or flaxseed. Score: 4/10.
A real but unresolved concern: often an ongoing FDA/AAFCO research question (like the grain-free/DCM investigation), a common allergen, or a vague-but-not-alarming label claim. -2.5 pts deducted.
