    Get a big bag of oatmeal without the added sugars and salts, better for you and overall cheaper, buy some cinnamon, vanilla extract, raisins and brown sugar, create your own Quaker Oats.

      Idk how to fit it into my schedule between my 12 hour shift and then harvesting roasting, grinding, and sealing coffee beans every day.

        Eh it only takes me 3-5 minutes to prep a bowl of oatmeal, I’m lazy and skip the cinnamon and vanilla extract but a bowl of oatmeal + raisins + brown sugar and then when I’m ready to eat add hot water and wait 5 minutes is certainly not an egregiously long task.

        Also oat bran! I recently started making my own oats or oat bran and is so quick, tasty, and you make it exactly how you want it. I’ll never go back to individual oatmeal packets

      Quaker oats makes plain oats. They also make steel cut oats. Store brands are usually cheaper, but you never really know who makes those or where they come from. 🤷‍♂️

        If it’s available in your area, I highly recommend Rogers Foods. They are BC based and make all sorts of quality flour and cereal products

      Buy the healthy thing base ingredient, add all the unhealthy yourself. 🤣

      No that’s totally fair, just funny.
