With just 5 minutes of cooking time, this is 100 times better than "instant" oatmeal. Plus you can use it for recipes (like meatloaf), which you usually can't do with "instant". I am in my late 50's, and have been eating this since I was a kid. It's definitely worth the small extra amount of time and effort!!!

Was very disappointed when I got my order. The oatmeal was at the bottom of the box laying down and the detergent I ordered was on top and smushed the oatmeal and flakes were all at the bottom of the box. I only had half a container of oatmeal left. Not a happy camper

My hubby and I eat oatmeal at least 4 times a week. We have tried many different brands but we always come back to Quaker Oats. Takes 3 minutes in the microwave, the texture is chewy, never mushy. He adds dried berries and cinnamon, I add dried berries and peanut butter. Delicious and filling.

I like hows it good for me and so convenient To make. Just put it in a bowl with water for 1:25 minutes. Add what you would like. My favorite is apples and cran raisins. Sometime I also add cinnamon and apples when I want a little healthy snack. Minutes

As a child I didn't much care for oatmeal, but as an adult I love this for breakfast. As an adult I can cook them the way I like with raisins and cinnamon, or chopped dried apricots with a bit of honey, a chopped apple with cinnamon and brown sugar. Oatmeal is a healthy cereal and so adaptable to individual taste. They can be salt free, low fat, no sugar, and different flavors for everyday of the week. I grown to like a well cooked oatmeal with a creamy texture. Quaker does a good oatmeal that cooks quickly to a creamy texture, and doesn't have to be soaked overnight which is something my Mom did with the oats she used.

one of the canisters arrived with the top open and a cups worth of oats everywhere. First indication was a loose rice sound when taking the box in, the second was oats on the inner flaps when opening up the box. The box will now have to go in a ziplock bag, because it is open and if put in pantry bugs get in, if put in fridge smells and foreign tastes get in. Not a total loss, just a minor inconvenience.

I was buying Rolled Oats in bulk from various sources, mostly because I never actually compared the cost pre pound with Quaker Old Fashioned Oats. After a few minutes wit the calculator I was actually shocked. Now I am actually saving money by buing from a trusted national supplier.

I have this most days for lunch. Make a small container with about 3 servings, cover with almond milk and let set overnight in fridge. No cooking. Lasts 3 meals. Make a bowl for lunch, add some maple syrup and little more milk. Can add walnuts and raisins for something special, or other fruit. Like the old fashioned better than quick oats, quick oats come out mushy.

Please put Quaker, Old Fashioned Oatmeal, Whole Grain, 42 oz in a sealed plastic bag like you do laundry soap when shipping. The bottom of the oatmeal container was crushed in shipping allowing ANTS to get inside with the Quaker, Old Fashioned Oatmeal, Whole Grain, 42 oz. . I love Quaker, Old Fashioned Oatmeal, Whole Grain, without ANTS!!!

i mainly use this product for my gerbil breeding program. it makes up nearly 50 percent of their diet. the flakes are large and they can hold them easily when eating. when i remove the lid and plastic seal they can use the containers for housing and to chew on. i also use this product to bake oatmeal raisin cookies for the humans in my house 😋
