Can't put my finger on it

Been eating quaker instant oatmeal packets for 35 years. Always Cinnaom Spice and Maple Brown Sugar. Not sure exactly but the Brown sugar tastes artificial and little more like cream of wheat than what it tasted like in years past. Hope they are able to bring back a more real Brown sugar flavor. Switched over to plain 1 minute and add my own cinnamon and Brown sugar.

Bring back the old recipe!

I thought it was me! I agree wholeheartedly with the other comments. I do not like this new taste or texture. After years and years of eating Maple and Brown Sugar, I'm finishing off my current box and then no more. I'm so disappointed because there is nothing like a cup of oatmeal on a cold fall/winter morning. Ugh!! Change the recipe back, please!!!

Yuch. No Maple or brown sugar! You lie!

Upset stomach from Stevia. Hate the chicory root. Why? Where's the Maple and Brown Sugar. My mouth is coated with stevia, that I never eat! I'm angry. Just wanted my good old fashioned simple breakfast while vacationing in Florida, and now I'm sick!! I'm angry! Why did you ruin something good?

discontinued product

We only like the instant Quaker Maple flavor oatmeal (it's the only flavor we will eat) but was told by our store that it was discontinued and you started carrying the organic instead.(less pkg. for more money). When I saw you still had some left online, I jumped at it.

Shrinkflation

Your shrinkflation is out of control. You are putting so little oatmeal in the packets that the cooking directions are no longer accurate. The 2/3 of a cup fill line on the packets isn't even accurate anymore. I just used a measuring cup to validate this. It actually only holds 1/2 of liquid up to the line. And when you add only 1/2 cup, the oatmeal still doesn't thicken up after more than 2 minutes of microwaving, indicating there is very little actual oatmeal in the packets.

New taste is not great

Hands down my favorite breakfast food as I can't eat eggs. Just this morning I got some of the new recipe and it was shocking enough of a different taste to make me go online. I don't taste any brown sugar or maple. I keep seeing people talk about maple syrup but do you know you can get granular maple sugar? I always assumed that was what was mixed in the past. The new taste isn't terrible, it definitely tastes more like slow cook oats, which again, isn't bad but not what I expected or wanted. Its unpleasant enough for me to write a poor review. Since I can't eat eggs, wheat or honey, might just have to make my own oatmeal.

My favorite flavor!

I always keep this flavor on hand. It is the best one I have found. It has just the right amount of sweetness, where all the others, to me, need sugar added. I feel, instant oatmeal needs to be made with milk to give it that creamy texture. When made just right, it melts in your mouth with a flavor explosion like no other. It doesn't need butter or sugar added.

texture/taste

I used to buy this oatmeal all the time, but the most recent time both the flavor and the texture seemed to have changed. The oatmeal is much more bland and the texture is very gritty and grainy almost like it doesn't cook all the way. This new taste/texture is almost repulsive and I would much appriciate it if you returned to making it the same way you did once before.

Something has changed for the worse

I used to buy this product to feed my kids 20 years ago, but no so much after they weren’t small kids. Recently, I have purchased it again a few times but noticed the maple odor is extreme and permeates everything in the house, microwave, clothing. It concerns me that it has a stronger maple odor than maple syrup itself, as if it is likely chemicals. The strength of the odor makes me lose my appetite and makes me worried to put that in my body. I will no longer buy this product.

It's All Good!

Mmmm-Sooo goood! I really love eating Quakers Maple and Brown Sugar oatmeal, It's my favorite. It doesn't matter the time of day, whether for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or I'll even have some for a midnight snack. I like the lower sugar one as well. It's all so good!
