She inhaled them in record time and couldn’t stop saying how “yummy” they were, little does she know they contain oatmeal. Of course I had to give them a try and I could see why she gobbled them up so quickly, they tasted just like cinnamon rolls and you couldn’t even tell that they had good for you foods like oatmeal and milk.

Another reason I tend to favor Quaker is because they like to give back to the community and right now they have their #BetterTogether campaign going on with the Kroger Co. Family of Stores and they’re donating $25,000 to feed families in need by donating to Feeding America! Of course you can show your support by tweeting a picture of you and your family enjoying your oatmeal + milk creation by including @Quaker and #BetterTogether in your tweet!
