    Yuk

    What have yall done to your 5 minute quick grits? No matter how long they cook, they lost there creamy texture. I grew up eating these grits. I even fed them to my children. Go back to the original recipe. Very disappointed 😞

    Grits everywhere

    The Grits box busted open during shipment. I will have to throw remainder away. I should have taken a picture when I first opened the box. It's even on my front porch and steps. I'm surprised fedex delivered it.

    Better than the flavored varieties

    These are much better than the flavored varieties. I prefer adding my own cheese or REAL butter to them.

    I'm hooked on these

    I buy these in bulk and have been take these to work. They cook up perfect with hot water from the electric kettle and make a great base for a quick dinner or lunch at home - just add steamed veggies and herbs! After adding hot water, a splash of almond milk and 30 seconds in the microwave make the grits extra creamy.

    Bad packing

    Whilst we are happy with the actual product, shipping is horrendous. We ordered 9 containers the first time and 6 came damaged. We reordered and 2 came damaged. Need to be better padding in the box and fragile written on the outside of shipping box

    Instant Grit Fail

    I just made some grits. Instant Quaker grits. I followed the directions and emptied the package into a 2 cup measuring cup, as fine 0.5 cups water and cooked for 1 minute in the microwave. They were not "smooth" so I cooked for another 30 seconds and stirred - still not cooked. I added more water and another 1 min micro... Still not creamy /smooth.

    Very sad

    As a long time ,daily user of this products (decades) I am so disappointed. Lately my 5 minute grits have required double that cook time and producing off colored, clumpy, vinegar and oil type consistency. My cooking process including stove top and water has not changed so I'm thinking it is a recipe change. If so, please revert back to your old recipe or I will no longer be purchasing this product. So sad.

    Does not cook that fast

    I don't know how others have been preparing these, but I find that they do NOT cook in the microwave. They stay hard unless you cook them on the stovetop for 15-20 minutes, and even then they never get a creamy texture. I am honestly not sure if it is even safe to eat them after merely microwaving, since the corn is raw (there is a warning about this on the package saying to thoroughly cook them).

    Too salty but still good

    I absolutely love grits regardless of cooking method. One question though. Would you consider a no-salt or reduced-salt version of the instant? Salt is a major issue for Americans with hypertension or kidney disease. And I do love the portion control with the instant packages.

    Salty

    I love grits. I usually get the quaker 5minute grits. I tried these out, the original flavor and they would be great but they are so salty. Its weird. I like sugar in my grits so it was a bizarre taste. If you like savory grits than they are perfect.

    I didn't like it because it's too salty!

    I've been eating the regular Quaker oats grits for a while now. But I thought I would just buy the instant to make breakfast a little faster. This stuff is got lots of added salt that I never put in mine when cooking the regular. I would not buy this again because the salt takes away from the grits itself

    Open box

    I always but Quaker 5 minute grits but this one time I purchased from Target the bottom of the 24 oz canister was busted on one side with grits coming out. Didn’t get to eat so I couldn’t give a review.

    What are you thinking!?

    I only eat the Cheddar Grits. I now can't find them outside a 22 count variety pack. I'm not saying for 17 packs I won't eat. Make Cheddar Grits available on their own, please and thank you

    Difference In Grits

    I usually purchase the grits on the left (in the round box). My store didn’t have them and I bought the package on the right. The cooking instructions are the same but the texture is so different. Should I use different cooking for the ones I just bought? I don’t even like the gritter texture from the paper package. May throw them out.
