5.0 out of 5 stars
a fine choice for breakfast--or whenever,
By Matthew G. Sherwin (last seen screaming at Amazon customer service) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Quaker Oats - 2/4.5 lb. bags (Misc.)
Quaker Oats may not be the most exciting thing I could review, but it's so incredibly good for your health that I decided to submit this review anyway. Oatmeal has apparently been around in one form or another for goodness knows how long; and the Quaker Oats brand of oatmeal is probably the best you can buy.
The oatmeal is easy to make; you can make it on the stovetop with either milk or water (water is healthier); alternatively you can prepare it in the microwave as I do. There are instructions for stovetop cooking on the packaging. If you want to make it in the microwave, pour a serving (1/2 cup dry) into a bowl, add some water until you're satisfied with the amount of water in the bowl and just pop it into the microwave. I find that 2 ½ minutes in the microwave makes a great hot breakfast that's very healthy for me; and that's doubly important for me as I am on a very strict diet. I must lower my weight and cholesterol to avoid even more health problems that I already have. Sigh. The oatmeal has a slight amount of fat; the total fat is 3 grams per serving. There is no cholesterol; and there's no sodium which makes this a better choice than Cheerios if you're watching your sodium intake. The dietary fiber is relatively high; there are 4 grams of dietary fiber per serving. If you have any questions about just how much oatmeal you need in your own specific diet, ask your doctor. Sometimes eating extra oatmeal--for example, having two portions instead of one every morning--doesn't necessarily mean you're getting twice the value of this product. Again, please ask your doctor or nutritionist to be sure. In addition, the containers usually last a little over a year--look at the packaging for the expiration date and eat the oatmeal before that time. Overall, this oatmeal by Quaker Oats is just about the healthiest choice for your daily breakfast or any other time you wish to eat it. Enjoy!

Totally too expensive,
By Rowan Oak "missrowanoak" (JACKSON, TN, US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Quaker Oats - 2/4.5 lb. bags (Misc.)
This review isn't for oats in general but in this particular posting for them. The price on this is outrageous. While there is no difference in oats in general (Quaker is just the same as any store brand) I understand if one must have Quaker; however, this is not the venue in which to do it. These oats are so overpriced as to be offensive. The same size box sells for $7 at Sam's. As one poster recommended, you would be better off buying them at the supermarket than on here. Better yet, just go to Sam's and pay less than half!

Waaaay Overpriced,
By H. J. Plaggemars "Food Knut" (Waving at you from the Palm of the USA - Michigan) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Quaker Oats - 2/4.5 lb. bags (Misc.)
Looking for some bulk 1 minute oats as our local Sam's Club sometimes does not stock it, so off to Amazon.
Save your money and go buy it at your local supermarket - this stuff is at 2-3X normal supermarket prices. The oats themselves are fine, a commodity...try them with some ground almonds and a handful of raisins - mmmm.
