Quaker Oatmeal Squares have undergone significant changes that have left many guests disappointed. While some appreciate the new recipe for its lighter texture and less sweetness, the majority miss the original flavor and crunch. The new squares are smaller, denser, and have a different taste that many describe as bland or cardboard-like. Despite the mixed feelings, the cereal remains a nostalgic favorite for some, making it a versatile option for snacking or breakfast.

Recipe changed
I used to love these. Didn’t have them for a few years but bought them this week. The recipe has certainly changed. Less sweetness and maple syrup flavor. Disappointed.

Gone to he%% in a hand basket
Used to love this cereal. I thought I’d give it a try one day (I don’t eat cereal anymore) and they were absolutely disgusting. What happened? Yuck! Yet again another company making their once good product cheaper, less nutritious and revolting. I do eat oatmeal and I will not ever buy another Quaker product, so I switched my oatmeal to Trader Joe’s brand.

Great Health Snack
I enjoy eating as a snack (without milk)...nice crunchy taste. Love that it's healthy for me and the brown sugar is definitely a healthier option. Love it.

Oat Squares are awful now
You lost a long time consumer with your formula and manufacturing change. Will never purchase this product again. It is awful.

Great flavor and crunch
One of my favorite cereals! The brown sugar flavor is delicious without being overly sweet, and the oatmeal squares have a really satisfying crunch. They also stay crunchy in milk longer than most cereals. Great for breakfast or even as a quick snack straight from the box. Definitely something I would buy again!

Used to be my favorite cereal
Quaker did a voluntary recall of a lot of their products and this used to be a very good cereal, healthy a little bit of sweetness, but not too much sugar in it stay crunchy and milk. Then when they put it back on the shelves, they changed it. It’s not as sweet it gets soggy and milk right away. I don’t know why they couldn’t just keep it the way it was.

Worst cereal I have ever had.
Disappointing both in flavor and texture. I expected a crunchy texture something that wouldn't get soggy or mushy immediately after pouring milk. I can't even begin to describe what it felt like. I just wanted to spit it out. The flavor was average and plain. Now I'm trying to find some other use for it instead of just chucking it into the trash.

Sounds like I missed out on the better version!
Not bad dry or in some yogurt, but I wouldn't say they tasted like brown sugar. Admittedly not much flavor of anything at all. But: TERRIBLE IN MILK. ZERO FLAVOR AT ALL IN MILK. Needs stronger flavor to be worth buying again.

THESE SUCK
So I recently got back on my oatmeal square kick and I got a box, and was highly disappointed when I opened it. Back in the day the oatmeal squares were actually squares and had flavor. These are no oatmeal squares. This cereal is now oatmeal rectangles that taste like cardboard. What the heck. I want my oatmeal SQUARES back. Please change your ways, don’t fix what was not broken. This is so disappointing I will never get these again. Ruined my day.

Bring Back My Cereal
Used to be my favorite cereal. The new recipe is disappointing, worse than inferior knock offs. Quaker bring back the original.

CHANGE IT BACK!
Bought them after not trying them for years, was really looking forward to it as it was one of my favorite cereals growing up but I was disappointed when I tasted them as they taste NOTHING like they used to. Did some research as the squares seemed smaller than I remembered and came across hundreds of people having the same experience, everyone claiming that this new recipe tastes like cardboard. This new recipe is so bad, hopefully they revert whatever changes they made.

Where's the crunch and flavor?
This is not the same product we've eaten for years. It is tasteless and chews like soggy cardboard -- not the crunchy, yummy tasting cereal we know and love. Please bring back the original recipe/product.

New recipe is awful.
Why the drastic recipe and production change? The new shape, texture and flavor is awful. Was my favorite cereal growing up but will no longer purchase. Can’t even finish the overpriced box I got. And why use the old photos of the original product we all knew and loved? Misleading. Loyal customer for 30+ years - will never buy again.

Recipe change ruined these
These are disgusting now. They are bland, literally flavorless. They are weird, long rectangles and a light tan color, instead of textured squares with a darker brown color. I used to love these. I am so sad and disappointed by the huge drop in quality.
