Flour is fortified (which is a requirement as most of the nutrients are stripped off when oats are processed . Whole oats still have the bran and germ which contain most of the nutrients.
And to respond to the initial question. It all depends. If eaten plain rolled oats would be the healthiest, followed by easybr3ak and then any other flakes . However you can mess up even the healthiest cereal by adding sugar (in form of honey, syrup, etc) and excessive amount of fruit.
I always thought it was the same. Just finer oats. Don't buy flavoured stuff though. Stick honey or fruit in yourself
Supermarket porridge oats is far healthier for your wallet
I eat it almost every day but have to use 2 sachets to feel full so not …I eat it almost every day but have to use 2 sachets to feel full so not really sure it's as healthy as it should be

IF ready break is “unhealthy” we all may aswell throw in the towel!

Honey would be exactly the same as the flavoured version. Fruit is a different matter tho

To many vitamins can be harmful so if you take supplements avoid fortified foods. Maybe... I just buy the big flakes rolled oats and use porridge bowl with markings and cook in microwave with spoon of local honey. Lush.. But thats me. I also don't make with milk as I limit my dairy products but oats are oats (edited)

Even though majority of the UK are buying fake honey anyways.. 80p for 500g honey, people really don't understand how much it costs to produce it, fake honey
However realisticly even the fake 80p stuff from supermarket be better for you then the honey they will be using on mass scale, will be likely less quality. and adding yourself you can add less, many yoghurts at supermarkets are oversweet for me, I can half the sugar and enjoy it.
its all about control. one day you might want more ect ect

Nope, Honey from supermarket or honey from beekeeper is sugar regardless how its made. It could be unicorn, manuka or or melted sugar and coloured yellow. It has same GI impact and same GI load. And nutrient wise, there is literally negligible amounts of anything This is what people need to understand. No matter what fancy health benefits something has they key aspect is the overall impact
