(4 pack) Great Value Instant Old Fashioned Oats, 18 oz Tube

Don't waste your time and cooking power on the so-called steel cut oats which are the same oats with a coarser cut. These are good with 3 minutes of slow simmer followed by 3 minutes of sitting in the covered pot before eating These are also the most economical to buy. NOTE - instant oats or one minute oats are not as healthy because they have been chopped too fine for healthy digestion - they digest too fast and elevate your blood sugar (high glycemic index) while providing less effective fiber. Include the very high added sugar in instant oat packets and you have a recipe for diabetes. The canister lid should be recycled and the paper canister is easy to flatten and recycle - make an X shaped cut in the bottom panel to flatten it.

I was skeptical about ordering the great value brand oats because I always order the name brand so I ordered a small package just in case. I am so happy with my purchase! I wish I would have just ordered the biggest package of the oats for my family. They are so good! Definitely ordering these in a bigger size next time.

I usually order the large size. 2 smaller were substituted. I much prefer the smaller size. They stay fresher %26 store easier. Tastes great either way. Cheaper %26 fulfilling also.

As an oatmeal enthusiast who always but Quaker, I can tell you that there's absolutely no difference. This is truly a Great Value. Add some protein to maximize health benefits.

This is a simple breakfast that's a little healthier than most. I and a little dry fruit and some brown sugar, I'm set for the morning. The oats look and taste just as good as the name brand. Why waste money on something more expensive, when you could get something just as good for less?

I enjoy it when an item is as it says in the description and delivers that expectation. It is difficult sometimes to decide on an item when there are so many options to choose from, but I went with this one and am completely satisfied with my selection. couldnt be happier!

Love me some hot oatmeal with buttery consistency and fresh fruit usually strawberries made quickly in the microwave

I eat a lot of oats these days mostly for health reasons. This Great Value product has consistent quality and the price is not bad. I have purchased this many times.

I've been buying this brand for a while, but I recently bought a batch that tasted to strange! Almost like soap!! I thought my blueberries had gone bad but I realized the oats container had a very strong smell. Oats should not smell, so I'm so confused and concerned.

My wife made oatmeal with this and it tasted like soap. At first we thought maybe it was the pot and that the dishwasher had failed its job at rinsing. We tried the oats another time and they still tasted like soap. I would not buy these unless you want poison yourself.
