test 1. Sniff it. Sniff hard. If there is no hint of fustiness, proceed to test 2.
test 2. spread some of the oatmeal on a flattish tray or big plate, making sure you use some from the very bottom of the jar. Look very carefully, with magnifying glass if necessary. If anything moves, it has weevils and the birds will love them. If nothing moves, the oatmeal is fine.
