Powerful Nutrition Instant Protein Oatmeal Cups, Apple Cinnamon, 6 Pack, 20g of Protein, 4g of Fiber, Kosher, Natural Ingredients, Power Up Your Day with an Instant Breakfast

I. Hate. Oatmeal. It's mush without the satisfaction of peanut butter. Lumpy, disgusting mush. However... this tastes really good, so I can get over the texture. It's a small serving size and super easy to make (isn't all oatmeal?), but it packs one heck of a punch. I'm training in powerlifting, and this really sticks to your ribs (do people even say that anymore?). It has a miracle balance of protein and carbs- it's a must for squat days. It's not for quarter-squatters though, they can stick to rice cakes for their patellas of power. Buy this. Eat it. It works.

Looked around for ways to up my daily protein and saw this. I really wanted to at least like this product, if not love it. There is nothing on the ingredient label that belies how awful it would be. Have tolerated stevia in other products without issue. This, however, is truly awful. Ordered the maple syrup flavor. On its own, it's impossible to not gag. Tried doctoring it with cinnamon, even a teaspoon of real strawberry jam. Nothing can improve the taste. And the aftertaste stays with you. Would give it no stars if I could. So disappointing.

This was super easy to use and also travel with but it has a weird aftertaste I just can't get passed. I am assuming it's the protein powered they use to supplement the oatmeal. I find that if I let it sit in the container and thicken up significantly (usually 5 to 10 minutes) it's not as bad. It is very filling. I was really hoping I'd love the taste bc it's so convenient and loaded with protein.

I tried both the peaches and cream and blueberry vanilla overnight oats and thought that both were great for the price. I had previously tried the oats overnight brand and while those were better for sure they also cost like $3-4 per serving and I simply can’t justify spending that much. These are much cheaper at roughly $1.66 per serving and while they don’t taste quite as good they definitely taste good enough to me that I’ll continue to buy them at that price. They also have good macros with a nice amount of protein and not too much added sugar. I should disclose that I’m one of those people who don’t mind the taste of stevia. I’ve seen others complain of the aftertaste, but as someone who’s done keto diets off and on in the past I’ve grown used to it and don’t even notice it tbh, but as always YMMV

I tried this product because I was looking for something with more protein at my breakfast time while trying to maintain fiber and going easy on the carbs. This product seemed to be more affordable than most of the other selections available so I decided to give it a go.The good: The maple and brown sugar flavors are pretty decent and the aroma is enticing the texture is spot on for instant oats and the ease of prep is fussless and simple.The not so great:The ingredients say that it has pecans in it, but I found less than an eighth of one single nut in the product, in other words, unless you are deliberately looking for it, you’re gonna completely miss it. I also found that it needed just a pinch of salt and I am a kind of person who does not even have a salt shaker on their table because I just do not use it.Also good: Now those two above issues aside the serving size was generous at over a cup after adding water. I just put boiling water in mine and then popped the lid back on and let it steam / soak for a few minutes , I did not feel like putting it in the microwave and risk it boiling over. I used water because I did not want to add extra calories with milk. It was very filling and the texture was exactly what you would expect from instant oatmeal. I will definitely buy this again because the cost per unit cannot be beat with anything that I can find at the grocery or elsewhere on Amazon.

I like other brands of apple and cinnamon instant oatmeal so believe me when I say this stuff is terrible. It has this horrible artificial flavor and it's difficult to get to a reasonable thickness due to the fact that the line to measure your liquid level is on the outside of the package instead of the inside--servings turn out pretty consistently way too thick (I've tried adding a bit more water to end up with a serving that is way too thin). I couldn't finish the pack of 6 that I bought. I'm sure it does the job in terms of adding protein to breakfast, but I think most people would prefer to have a different oatmeal with a good flavor and a protein shake separately over trying to choke this oatmeal down.

Folks - you need to know what you're getting into here, and if you expect this to take like your standard-fare, sugar-loaded quaker instant flavored oats then you're wishing on stars. If it's your first foray into protein powders or the like, than just with any product that is upping protein and controlling sugars and carbs, you'll have to adjust.However if you're well immersed in the world of getting enough protein and watching your macros, you'll love this stuff.This stuff if fabulous and does better than any home-made attempt I've had at dropping protein into my standard Quaker Oats (which does not go over well at all, in my experience).I travel a ton for work and it's hard to keep my macros in check on the road, and have go-to items that I can carry-on when I fly. This one fits the bill - the flavor and texture (not chalky - its whey-based protein) are fantastic for a high-protein, low-sugar product. 100% satisfied and totally meets my needs!! The maple honey flavor was true to form.I haven't tried microwaving it, I just add a splash of hot water and it heats through perfectly. Definitely going to be a staple for eating right during my business travels.
