Has anyone tried Quaker Oats **Weight Control** Maple & Brown Sugar?? (1g of sugar) and it's so delicious!! I've been eating this for breakfast almost everyday. Just wondering if anyone has tried this, if not.. pick up a box at your local grocery store, it's really good! :)

    Funny, I just saw someone post about this on a different WL site & she wasn't crazy about it, lol. I used to eat it & liked it fine, but these days I'll just eat regular Quaker rolled oats made with 1c of almond milk & 1 tsp of brown sugar Splenda. Tastes great without all the additives & not so sweet.

    Ugh, I hate the Weight Control oatmeals!! The Quaker High Fiber actually has more fiber, less sodium and the same or less cals/fat. The reason I don't like the weight control is that it is soooo salty!! I actually called Quaker and they replaced the two boxes I had bought by sending me replacement vouchers. Sooo..if you buy it and you don't like it, call them and tell them!!

    I LOVE Quaker oatmeal. Don't get me wrong! I just don't like all that salt!!

    Sounds like it tastes good, but it also sounds really processed.
  • I would usually keep a box at my desk for energy fuel. I've found using some of the steel cut oats, cinnamon, and honey offers a comparable taste but much less processing :)

    Not crazy about it, either. BUT I did try Lavish dark chocolate oatmeal yesterday and it was delish. 160 calories.

  • I agree with gapeach..(and it's totally not because we're both from Ga but it helps! Hey there!) lol but yeah I haven't tried the weight control, however the high fiber is AWESOME. I love the maple and brown sugar best and the cinnamon is pretty good too. I just wish they had the banana bread flavor in high fiber..or if they do my area doesn't have it..but yeah it's amazing and I usually don't even like the instant stuff.
  • yes I also eat it alot

    Every other day I have it. I only eat half because my daughter eats the other half. Cinnamon and Apples is my fave.

    Of course processed foods are the bane of weight loss and health. I should be dead by now if that were true.

    Because eggs have the same macro nutrient content?

    I agree!!! It is really good. I haven't had it in a while... That's usually what i have for breakfast in the winter time... Too hot for that in the summer.
