Quaker Simple Harvest Oatmeal Review

Quaker Simple Harvest Oatmeal- A new hot  instant multi-grain cereal with all natural ingredients Whole Oats,Whole Wheat and Barley.

To me it's just a good  fast bowl of oatmeal in the morning with bigger fruit, we   didn't taste a difference in it being whole grain.(Meaning it tasted just the way oatmeal should I guess...)

   I almost passed this by the first time I saw it because....

It doesn't look like it is in individual packets (" but it does contain 8 individual servings packets). I saw a advertisement for it and said hmm maybe we will give it a try when it's on sale.

Well it went on sale and I bought a few boxs to try.... It comes in three varietys I bought the apple cinnamon variety ; and the Maple Brown sugar with pecans .The "Maple brownsugar & pecans variety " was "Okay" it wasn't a wow like I thought it would be...Our favorite was the apples with cinnamon variety.

Apples with Cinnamon -

"We really liked this one Out of the two flavors we tried this one was our favorite."
