Quaker oatmeal hot ceral

I love it too. But now, too much gluten and carbs, boo hoo.

I can't eat it anymore. It rushes straight through me. I use to have it every morning. I only made it with water.

I just use quick oats mixed with Slippery Elm powder and stevia to sweeten it, taste pretty good, a slight maple like taste.

Love Quaker Instant Oatmeal! And, a huge plus in my book, they now contain less sugar! I looked everywhere for a lower-sugar oatmeal, & all the low sugar ones had artificial sweeteners, like aspartame or sucralose in them. No thanks. But, when I last purchased a 12 pack of the maple & brown sugar flavor, I noticed that all of the Quaker Oats are now made with less sugar. It never bothers me, I make it with 1% milk. so good.

I use the old-fashioned oatmeal in the cylindrical box; it cooks in water to a fairly creamy texture in ca. 15 minutes. Then I add pure maple syrup & lactose-free milk. Great on cold mornings! The Quaker oat bran hot cereal is also very good. For UCers who are flaring, Pillsbury farina is probably a safer hot cereal, though-- low-fiber with added iron. / Old Hat (30 yrs with left-sided UC; presently in remission taking brandname Colazal)
