As a kid, like most, I hated eating oatmeal for breakfast. You would always hear how good it is for you but how good it tastes was a different story. Now that I'm older and a little more health conscious (at least I try to be), eating oatmeal isn't so bad. So if it's good for me to eat a bowl of oatmeal in the morning, I figured I might as well eat the top oatmeal in the market. To find which is oatmeal is the best in the market, I didn't have to go far, many online sources have done the research: Men's Health seems to be partial to Quaker Instant Oatmeal both the original kind and the Cinammon Swirl High Fiber kind as noted by Men's Health segment of Eat This, Not That. A taste test conducted by Chow surprisingly has Safeway Regular Flavor at the top of their list, along with other brands such as Mr. McDougall's Organic, Quaker Original, and Nature's Path. If the popular apple cinnamon flavor is what you prefer, Huffington Post's article ranks Whole Food's 365 Organic as the best instant oatmeal. Kashi Heart to Heart also makes this list as well as the usual Quaker and Nature's Path brands.
So at this point it's becoming obvious that Quaker and Nature's Path are at the top of the class in taste and health. Every Day with Rachael Ray sides with Nature's Path in this battle between the two, while Good House Keeping ranks Quaker Original at first place, with Nature's Path at third. Which brings us to the Top Instant Oatmeal's:
I've tried all these oatmeals as either in their cinnamon flavors, or blueberry flavors but not their original plain flavors. Quaker takes my vote as the top oatmeal mainly because of it's texture. Especially when mixed with milk, Quaker oatmeals seem to be thick (but not too thick like Kashi) and has a good flavor. I preferably enjoy Quaker's Cinnamon Swirl High Fiber in the morning heated with milk but I'm sure Quaker's other flavors are just as good.
