What did you do to the oats?! The stevia coating in my mouth is bad enough, but the oats feel raw no matter how much boiling water I add. It REFUSES to mix into a cohesive dish, it is mealy and flavorless, and there is absolutely no taste of maple or brown sugar anywhere in my bowl. Maybe next time, don't just flavor white sugar to be "maple", and instead try adding MAPLE SYRUP. Molasses couldn't hurt either. I have never seen my sister throw out food, but in this case, she drop kicked the box into the garbage bin.

I like the texture and flavor of this oatmeal. I see that people are saying the recipe has changed and they hate it. It seems healthier than before. I am not looking for an overly sugary breakfast, I want to get my fiber in with some flavor. I think its great, quick and easy. I do agree that the smell of this is very strong, almost sickeningly sweet. However, that's not found in the flavor which I appreciate.

I saw that there was a new box but didn’t realize it had a new taste. Wish I would have known it before I’d purchased TWO boxes. So disappointed with weird texture and the ‘improved’ taste. I eat this every single morning and am now switching to toast until I find a better alternative.

I agree with the reviews here - I ate Maple Brown Sugar Instant every day at work. then they changed it, horrible. Saw the classic in AZ bought a box but didnt have it in MA. Then they did again. Much better than the second version but still not original. All natural flavors doesn't always mean better. In this case it is a sweet fake taste ( I love sweet - but this is fake sweet) Just get back to the real original - and advertise you have done so - tired of checking to see

I tried oatmeal for the first time in my life about a month ago and I decided that I really really like it. So I bought a box and started eating it every morning, and within two weeks I had lost 4 pounds! I tried almost all of the other flavors and decided that I like maple and brown sugar the best, but the other flavors are quite good too. (Not the weight control ones though) Some days I add a little cinnamon to mine to add a little extra flavor. I hope that Quaker keeps the formula just as it is because in my opinion it is perfect!

I love oatmeal for breakfast usually slow cook mine in 1% milk with a small amount of evaporated milk. It tastes rich and creamy. I decided to try the instant packages and they were horribly sweet at 29-34 grams of sugar per serving!! This is like drinking a 12 oz. can of Coke (39g) or 3 Krispy Creme donuts (30g) or a serving of yogourt with fruit (25g). Quaker, YOU CAN AND MUST do better to help us make healthy choices.

You can’t go wrong with this instant oatmeal. I’ve only really tried the Maple Brown Sugar flavor, but I’m sure all other flavors are just as tasty. The packaging is good in a sense that it’s quick and convenient…I can just grab and go for a quick nutritional breakfast. You can eat it plain or dress it up with granola or your favorite topping. Yum!

I'm so disappointed in the negative comments from the folks that have been eating Quaker since the 70's!!!! This hasn't changed...YOU HAVE!!! (Please don't try the Cap'n Crunch you old farts!!!) Just had a dbl bowl of Maple/Brown Sugar. I'm so satisfied...happy actually! Continued Success (apologies for the attack...I'm just kidding...stay healthy above everything)

The reason I like Quaker oatmeal and the reason I give it five stars is because it is real food that is so good for you. It's not this highly proceesed stuff that is so full of fat, sugar and salt. So much of that kind of food, while it might taste good, is just so bad for you. Do yourself a favor and eat some real food. Quaker oats is a good place to start, you'll be glad you did.

We love Quaker oats maple and brown sugar because of the convenience, flavor, and the fact it's a wholesome small meal. We enjoy simple great tasting food. Maple brown sugar is exactly that! We live a healthy lifestyle so when we pack our lunches for work or even when go on a vacation we always include a packet of Quaker instant maple and brown sugar oatmeal. It's a staple in our home.
