Rolled oats are whole oats that have been pressed under big rollers. They can be enjoyed for breakfast or used in baking (ie, biscuits and flapjacks).
Bob's Redmill gluten free oats are grown in dedicated oat-only fields. In fact, the farms that process the oats are regularly sampled to ensure the absence of wheat to avoid the cross-contamination of gluten. Many people with coeliac disease cannot eat oats because oats and wheat are commonly handled together at cereal farms or factories. Bob's Redmill ensure that this does not happen and that you can eat oats safe in the knowledge they have not been handled alongside wheat.
(Although do note, some people with coeliac disease/gluten intolerance also find the purest of oats can affect them. If you are unsure whether oats affect your diet, please check first with a doctor or nutritionist.)
