Guests are saying
The recent changes to the oatmeal formula have sparked significant disappointment among long-time guests who cherished the original taste and texture. Many express that the new version lacks the sweetness and creamy consistency they loved, leading to a search for alternatives. However, some guests still appreciate the convenience and health aspects of the product, finding it suitable for quick meals. The oatmeal remains a nostalgic choice for many, despite the mixed feelings about the new recipe.

Not as expected
Bad quality. Boiling Water still in bowl after covering and adding to oatmeal. Even after microwaving, it seemed "undone". Returning back to store will buy Aldi store brand oatmeal, it's so delicious. Check it out. Quaker has failed smh.

Disgusting
Can someone in the reviews please tell me what other brand I can try that tastes how the ORIGINAL Quaker flavor used to taste? This new flavor is terrible, I noticed the change immediately and hated it. Thought I was going crazy until I read the other reviews. Really sick of companies doing this.

Change it back!
I literally eat this every day for years and now it is not absorbing water for some reason. This ruins it completely. Please revert whatever you did or you will loose a long time customer. This also applies to the lower sugar version.

Change it back
Long time supporter but agree with others, hate the change. It doesn't absorb water, texture and taste not up to par!! Will be checking out generic to see if it changed as well.

Original old formula was better
I have been eating maple and brown sugar my entire adult life 2-3 times a week. Well, now that has changed. Your new formula tastes terrible. Ridiculously bad. How can you mess up oatmeal? It now tastes like fake sugar coated clumps of soggy cardboard. Quit trying to make an extra 50 cents a box and bring back the old formula. Creamy, delicious and just the right sweetness. Come on Quaker, you can do better.

Absolute garbage after the change
You changed it and now it tastes awful. Cant believe I have to find another instant oatmeal brand. Maybe don’t change thing s and base it on “consumer demand” if it makes the product disgusting.

Terrible
What has happened to this oatmeal. The texture has completely changed and it does not absorb the water. It is not edible. The taste has changed as well.

Revolting New Taste
The taste between my current box and the last is 100% different now, and the new taste is actually revolting. It tastes less sweet and has a strange after taste now that that only gets more disgusting as you continue to eat it. I'll be switching to compliments.

Not up to you standards
The last 2 boxes of 8 that I have purchased Show no sign of brown sugar but a fine white powder that does not “melt”. What have you done to this previously delicious cereal? I am going to have to find a different brand. ☹️ I grew up on Quaker Oats.

I hate you changed your maple and brown sugar! I have bought my last box. Your cereal used to be good and smooth and now it’s lumpy and grainy. You had had good product and now wasted it for me. I’m done with this product.

Not a fan of the change
Definitely way less sugar in the new recipe. I likely could have adapted to a gradual reduction in sugar. Long time purchaser @ 69 yrs. of age.
