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.
