He spread the healthy seed on his whole wheat flakes and liked the combination so much he decided to package it. The name? We owe that to Mr. Coltrin's striking resemblance to Uncle Sam himself. 100 Years later, Uncle Sam cereals, bars and instant oatmeals are still a smart choice for anyone who believes that good food leads to good health. Heart healthy. Soluble fiber from oatmeal, in a low cholesterol and saturated fat diet, may reduce risk of heart disease. A serving supplies 1 g of 3 g of this fiber daily.
