More per serving (i.e. 1 cup versus 1/2 cup) or something??

I think it has more protein or something in it. It's supposed to make you feel fuller longer than regular oatmeal.

I am guessing the flavoring has something to do with it.

It's the sugar. I think the weight control oatmeal may have different nutritional info, but points wise, it is the sugar that bumps the points up.

Here's a couple of links...

NI info for Cinnamon & Spice - Instant Oatmeal

Equals - 3 pts

NI for Regular Instant Oatmeal

Equals - 2 pts

NI for Cinnamon Weight Control Instant Oatmeal

Equals - 3 pts


So to answer your question...it's because you have the regular instant oatmeal and are compairing it to the Cinnamon one.

The only flavors in the Weight Control is Banana Bread, Cinnamon & Maple & Brown Sugar.
