Here at Zego, we go above and beyond the norm to make sure you get the highest quality rolled oats!
First, I do a sniff test. Seriously. I get a sample from the farm and look for the grassy earthy smell unique to oats. If it’s not raw, it may smell like the cardboard it comes in.
Next, we have it tested for protein and to make sure there’s no glyphosate and gluten residue. Periodically we have a third party lab verify our tests for gluten, glyphosate, and 500+ other agricultural chemicals to verify your oats purity.
We generally buy from the same farms and our tests are consistent and great!
