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.
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. 🤷♂️
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
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.
I dont always do this, but ill often just prep a bunch in glass containers with lids with all the dry ingredients, and then just grab one and add water when I want an easy meal.
It barely takes any extra time to scoop everything out 5 or 6 times once you already have it out.
RIP Quaker Oats, I guess.

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
I do the same with cream of wheat. Quick and yummy.

Buy the healthy thing base ingredient, add all the unhealthy yourself. 🤣
No that’s totally fair, just funny.
Idk how to fit it into my schedule between my 12 hour shift and then harvesting roasting, grinding, and sealing coffee beans every day.
