I know it's not as good as old-fashioned, unsweetened oatmeal in terms of health value, but this is an excellent instant oatmeal that is not as sweet as regular oatmeals and has no bad additives, but my kids (who are sweet-aholics) LOVE it. I only wish we could buy it in a bulk can or bag so that we didn't have to waste so much packaging tearing several packets open every morning. It's our main breakfast food now.It taste a little less like sugar and more like maple and brown sugar than the Quaker brand. I noticed it also stayed warmer longer and "cooks" better than it too. All in all it doesn't cost anymore the taste is nearly the same(better in my opinion)and it's organic what more could you want? If you like the regular stuff you'll like this as well.This oatmeal tastes better than any I have eaten in my life. The texture and flavor is better than other instant oatmeals; it is not mushy and has the perfect amount of sweetness--not too sweet but not bland and boring. The price is great, especially considering it is approximately the same as Quaker but with the added benefits of being yummier and organic!
I contacted the manufacturer to ask if it is gluten free. They emailed me: "Our light oatmeals that come in the boxes are gluten free. The ones in big cups are not gluten free." However, I do not think they use certified gluten free oats. I have a gluten sensitivity and do not have any symptoms after eating this. However, if you have celiac, this product is probably not for you.This oatmeal is the best! I've been eating Quaker maple & brown sugar since I was a kid and and this blows Quaker away! If you order McDougall's through subscribe and save the price is exactly the same as Acme store brand maple and brown sugar. The consistency is different than Quaker. Probably the biggest difference I noticed is with Quaker I've always noticed a grainy type texture with every spoonful. Guess I just got used to that over the years. With McDougall's, all you can taste is the real oatmeal flavor with a nice touch of maple and brown sugar. Subscribe and save has made going organic much easier on my pocketbook too. There is no dollar amount on the fact that it gets delivered to my front door, saving me precious time and gas from going all the way to the nearest Whole Foods for a healthier chioce in eating. It's delicious, cheap and so good for you. Thanks Amazon for your subscribe and save program!I just received my order three days ago and these oats are very good. They taste better then the ones in the stores that have added artificial sweeteners and are better for you!
