Convenient, great taste. They are an easy meal to be made on the stove top, with just water. Five minutes is enough time to cook them. They make a satisfying breakfast. The oats may be ground down to make oat flour to use in baking. The carbohydrate level is a bit high. I would like them to be non-GMO, and think a big company like Quaker Oats should be more responsible in the products it sells. Overall, I'm satisfied.

I love oatmeal and eat it several times a week. I only buy Quaker Oats. It’s what I grew up eating. The old fashioned is my favorite because it doesn’t do that mushy slimy thing that most people associate oatmeal with. It’s always a staple on my shelf

I thought I was going nuts! Liquid still standing in my bowl of old fashioned Quaker Oats after cooking! Then I come to the website thinking the instructions have changed but they haven’t. What is going on? I see there are many people having the same result. I bought the 42 ounce size and WILL BE RETURNING IT. After 50 years of using Quaker, I am done buying their products.

I am such a fan of Quaker Oats oatmeal, I had it for breakfast every single morning while I was working. I have to get back on my regimen now that I am retired. But it is the best way to start your morning. I love to eat and the oatmeal fills me up so I don't have to go and fill my face with bread. LOVED IT FOR YEARS! Thanks

I been eating Quaker Oats for about 40 years it helps me get going in the morning, and it is good for your over all health. The pass twenty years I have some problems with my heart, but eating Quaker makes me feel better, an helps me inside with all my overall numbers. Today 02/05/16 I had a bowl of Oatmeal with Flax seed Honey Cinnamon and cranberries, WOW what a way to start the day. Salvatore Acerra

These oats make for a delicious warm meal or snack! I especially enjoy these on cold snowy days like today for example (high altitude living is something else!) This curbs my sweet tooth and is ready in about 5 minutes. My boyfriend & I usually combine ours with brown sugar and a little bit of maple syrup. But of course you can get creative and top it as you please!

I ate oatmeal as a kid but after high school in college I started to eat oats as a source of fiber but also because it was expensive. As time passed by the time I left college I was eating oatmeal because I came to love it. I started eating it my own way with honey , blueberries and banana with occasional peanut butter. Even now 50 years later I eat it. Another benefit, I've never been constipated or have hemorrhoids - a direct result of no fiber or ruffage.

This is really good for fixing a decent breakfast and then throwing in some yogurt to mix in for flavor. Also you can make the famous favorite no bake oatmeal peanut butter cookie with the cocoa powder or oatmeal raisin cookie which you do have to cook.

Warm, filling, can add any fruit and nuts that you like to increase the hardiness and nutrition! The easy carry instant packages are low carb and with added milk, satisfying for breakfast or mid day snack. The smells of cinnamon and spice fill my office and wake up other people's hunger, and easy to share.

We have been faithful buyers and consumers of Old Fashion Quaker Oats. In April we purchased in Southern California a large box of the Old Fashion Quaker Oats. It was completely different and completely changed.We returned to South Carolina and found the same problem with a new batch/box we bought. So, this was not just a bad batch we had in California! Quaker Oats Company has changed the Old Fashion Oats! WHY? WHY? We have cooked and prepared the oats exactly the same ways for years. Now the Oats come out gooey and glutenous - all mush. The oats cooks faster almost like instant oats (we know the difference) and it is very upsetting. We must now look around for another brand. It would be very nice to hear from Quaker Oats about what has changed. Why has the company changed this product? It was perfect and indeed "old fashion". WhY? Please tell us. Inge
