Wish I'd glanced over the reviews first...... Lol! I'm uploading a photo. The product on the left is what I received, as pictured and described. The product on the right is just to reflect the size of what we usually purchase.
Like others, I didn't pay attention to the listed size. It was my own mistake thinking this was such a great buy, haha, I didn't rate it down based on price.
Another product that I'd also recommend, currently a better value:
Bob's Red Mill Oats Rolled Regular, 32-Ounce (Pack of 4)
Both of these old fashioned oats are 5 star products in our book! Smile. Hope this is helpful!
My cardiologist told me to eat oatmeal at least five times per week. I haven't eaten oatmeal in years but I like it well enough. I bought this container because I don't like the packets with all the extra sugar and fake flavors and I am pleased with the taste and how easy it is to prepare. But the container is super small. I didn't realize how few servings an 18 ounce container would be. I would have to buy this every week or more just for myself and my husband who occasionally has some. But I guess that was my bad. I didn't really look at the servings per container. We always had these big containers of oatmeal when I was a kid and they lasted a long time. I am almost done with this container and it's only been a short while. Walmart has the 42 ounce canisters for just $1.00 more I will buy my oatmeal there from now on.
But that aside, the taste is great, the small amount of fat is poly and mono which are both good fats with just a touch of saturated which isn't. In all, a very healthy and versatile product. I will be buying the the big container though because the large container is a better deal and I won't have to buy it as often.
I guess I'm getting old, but I find eating a bowl of oatmeal in the morning is the perfect breakfast to get myself going. And don't bother with the "one-minute" variety, because that stuff comes out way too mushy. This regular stuff takes 2-3 minutes to microwave perfectly. Throw a little brown sugar or honey on top or mix in a mushy sweet banana and you are set! And look forward to that 2 o'clock deuce that lets you know your innards are working great!
When boiling milk: milk contains rich amino acids, under high temperature, the amino acid and sugar in milk to form a sugar called fructose amino acids, this kind of material instead of digestion and absorption by human body, it will affect human body health, colloidal form of protein in milk particles into gel at 60 ℃ by dehydration. Phosphoric acid precipitates in milk at this temperature from acidity to neutrality.
So milk heating temperature is unfavorable and exorbitant, heated to 100 ℃, the milk is not only color, aroma, taste is lower, nutritional value is also greatly reduced.
Oatmeal is such a great source of both insoluble and soluble fibers! If you're looking to lower your cholesterol levels, adding oatmeal to your daily diet is a quick and easy solution. I eat it bc it's cheap and easy for when I don't really have time to sit down and eat something before heading out for the day. Tastes great and lasts a long time!

Be wary of the size listings, I ended up with a much smaller package than I had for what should have been the same item
awesome way to start my day with these cold mornings, its all natural, no preservatives and just plain good. something healthy is not suppose to taste so good, but this does.
I've tried the fancy-pants ones (Bobs' Red Mill, for example) and always go back to Quaker Oats. These make the best oatmeal cookies -- use the recipe on the inside of the lid. Everyone LOVES those cookies. TIP: if you use raisins, use golden raisins. You're welcome.
Plain old fashioned oatmeal is something is hard to get bad, I guess. I prefer to season my own oatmeal with natural ingredients, not use artificially flavored versions.
I cook 1 serving (40g) with 1 cup of water and the desired ingredients (fruits, nuts, seeds) for 2 minutes in the microwave. Then I stir and let it sit to cool. They cook to perfection and they keep me full for about 3 hours. You get 13 servings in this container.
I love to eat oatmeal in the fall and winter with some peaches or cinnamon on top. I also put it in meat loaf, and grind it into a fine powder with my coffee grinder. Mixed into into my moisturizing cream it treats itchiness associated with eczema. 1/4 cup of oats will make more than enough for 8 oz of lotion.
