Although I LOVE the oatmeal this package design is insane. The interior rubber ring which should easily be lifted and removed instead was stuck to the cardboard of the canister. Not only did I almost break a nail was forced to use a knife to lift it while TRYING to separate the two. The end result left a damaged canister because so much of it's cardboard was stuck to the rubber ring...so now the top lid doesn't fit or seal.

One of the most versatile ingredients in my kitchen. We consume a great deal of Quaker Oats: breakfast, quick pick- up at lunch and occasionally a late night snack. It's as versatile as you make it, add nuts or honey, shredded coconut. I use it quite a bit in cooking for breads and of course for meatloaf. It's also a staple in cookies. The oatmeal cookie recipe inside the canister lid is awesome. I change that one up a bit sometimes, omit the raisins and cinnamon, and add dark chocolate. No weight issues or cholesterol issues in this house, and we enjoy eating, but substitute junk food with oatmeal and fresh fruit. Just dress it up!

I've grown up with Quaker Oats. My mom served it to us for breakfast before school and I kept the tradition alive with my own family. As an empty nester, I can get a little more creative with how I choose to flavor my oats. The plain flavor allows me to experiment by adding a variety of different flavors finding flavor combinations that taste amazing. I have to say that eating oatmeal is always an enjoyable experience, my appetite gets satisfied, it's healthy and a warm feeling always ensues. Thank you Quaker Oats!

I have been eating Quaker oatmeal since I was a child and I'm 76 years old. My mother always served it in the winter and she proclaimed it would "stick to your ribs!" I also make meatloaf with oatmeal as the filler. Got the recipe off the side of the box. I am getting ready to make a recipe for bar cookies that was on your web site

We have been buying Quaker old fashioned oats for many years now. My daughter recommended Red Mill oats before but I liked Quaker just as much then. But Quaker old fashioned oatmeal has changed. It doesn`t cook the same. It has a different texture. The pieces of oats are finer and it tastes pasty, like it has flour in it. The first box I bought like that I just thought it was that one box maybe. But it has been box after box.Quaker has changed something. I am no longer pleased with the product. I will be switching brands. I may have to pay a little more but I don`t like this as much as I used to. I'm sure the change was motivated by the economy. And I don`t blame them for trying to save money but unless they change back, I am switching. If they change back I will still buy it, even if the amount in the box is smaller but the price is the same.

I am sick of seeing your ads pop up on my timeline. Your posts are intrusive, and not wanted. I had a discussion with my son about Quaker theology, and you were listening... So, it appears that you are vain enough to think we were talking about your product. Also had a friend discussing quaker parrots on her timeline. Guess what? You are spamming her now, as well. Get a life.

I have been eating this Oatmeal since I was a kid. Always a breakfast favorite. No more! The oats never absorb the water, they are no longer creamy but soupy. The taste is awful, tastes soapy or like chemicals. Listen to all the other reviews stating the same things! Fix your product.

A few years ago I bought the usual Old Fashioned Oats and it was different. No flavor, texture more like pieces of paper cooked. Recently I bought a new box--surely it will be better. Well, it isn't--I cooked it for the recommended 5 minutes and it still tasted like pieces of cooked paper. Quaker oats--don't say you haven't changed it because you have and it is inedible!It has also ruined my oatmeal cookie recipe that I've made for 50 years. I've also stopped using your quick cook as it's texture and taste is horrible also.

I have been eating 1 bowl of oatmeal every day in the morning sometimes i use pecans and banana other times I use strawberries and cranberries and sometimes just plain with cinammon and honey and is the best it helps you feel full all morning, it has a few calories and is heart healthy oh and btw I can see my clothes are lose now :) thanks quaker for mking this product!

the other to go cups were better. i'm not sure what the deal is now.. different type cup or what, but this oatmeal is not good. i LOVED the apples and cranberries but goodness, this new packaging is either affecting how it heats and is making it mushy, or something is different with the oatmeal. i am so disappointed. this is mushy and horrible.
