I use this large size Quaker Oats, Old Fashioned type for making granola bars, cookies, candies, etc. It's not just for breakfast, which I do enjoy with fruits or brown sugar and milk. It's definitely less costly in a larger size than smaller containers, and keeps for a long time on the shelf, too.

My complaint is about the packaging. Had only one top come loose and it did spill about a cup full in the box. Wasn't packed tight and the lids should have been taped. Other than that product was very good. Wish they would take a little more time in packaging the things with lids that can come off.

Anyone who's an oats lover knows this stuff can't be beat. Doesn't have to be the brand name, tho. Great Value is just as good -- just unavailable thru Walmart.com. Odd how when one orders Great Value oats, they always arrived smashed/blown up and all over the inside of the packing box. When you order Quaker, all is fine. Cannot fathom why that is.

It’s so convenient to have this large container of oats in my pantry. It is not only cheaper than smaller containers, but I can have premium oats at the price of cheaper oats. I also don’t have to concern myself about going out in bad weather...I can have it delivered to my door.

Quaker Oats , one of our old time favorites. I'm in my 60s and I eat this as a child . I loved it then just as well then as I do now. I've found in my old age that this product promotes better health in a very big way. It has sure been helpful in keeping my checkup numbers reading right , when I visit my Doctor. I surely recommend this product for its unparalleled great taste and great health benefits for all age people.

If you like oatmeal, this is the perfect choice. Easy to prepare, and fast too. Oats, water, a microwave and 4 minutes is all you need for the best oats. Great tasting with fruits and a little sweetener of your choice. Keeps you warm and full all morning long. It is also a healthy choice for breakfast, or even a snack. This is the best choice when it comes to Oatmeal. It is also a terrific value for the huge package of oats. 5 stars for quality, health, taste and value.

Weak packaging! This is a production issue and not Walmart's fault. I ordered this item for delivery. The bottom of the package was almost loose when I got it. Some of the content was out in the delivery box. Packaging should be redesigned. Note that the OAT itself is an excellent product and I've been using it for years.

I eat oatmeal nearly every morning and this is my favorite kind. The old fashioned oats have a nice texture, they are not mushy like the quick oats. The boxes I received are both fresh with very good dates, giving me plenty of time to use them, but I'm not sure why Sam's requires you to buy 2 boxes since they shipped mine separately. This is a great value, much cheaper than buying the 1 or 2 pound containers in the grocery store. I have two 2 pound Quaker Oat containers which I refill, one 5 lb bag actually fits in the 2 containers if you shake them down a little.

You can buy all that chopped sugared instant you want, but the Old Fashioned WHOLE OATS ARE SUPERIOR. DO I LIKE THE PRICE INCREASE - NO, but I like the Sturdier Box for Safe Keeping. My cat likes to play with the plastic round string that protects the contents til Open day. I don't like my oatmeal creamy - I like it CHEWY, With fresh fruit, honey and warm milk. I make it All in the microwave, by Heating a 3 to 4 cup bowl of water 3 minutes. Leave a good 2-3 inch collar from the water to the top of the bowl. Pour in 3/4 cup to One cup oats. No need to stir. Cook on High for 3 more minutes - IN 30 SECOND INTERVALS, or it will run over - Watch it! Let sit inside microwave for 10-15 minutes. Add milk, microwave 30-60 seconds. Remove, add Fresh FRUIT and drizzle HONEY. A HOT

The packaging is substandard the product is not protected properly , and it’s exposed to elements before it reaches the consumer thus creating fungai in the product and sometimes germinate the moth which shows the old stale product is packaged with the date of packing regardless how old the product is . Edible food must have date of harvest and processing to let the consumer know that they are eating a stale product so they can safeguard them selves for the products on sale oatmeal
