Steel-cut oats are described as being nuttier and chewier than other types of oats. Bubliks usually have a denser and "chewier" texture than bagels. Steel-cutting produces oatmeal with a chewier and coarser texture than other processes. Whole rice has a mild nutty flavour and is chewier. Alternatively, bread can be placed inside unbuttered which produces a chewier 'toastie'. Chewier biscuits are sometimes called "cookies" even in the United Kingdom. The term cookie is normally used to describe chewier ones. Contrary to modern belief, Apple Chips do not become chewier when stale, only harder. The cheese becomes harder and chewier as time goes by.
