Whilst eating my breakfast this morning I suddenly realised that I hadn't written a review about Oats So Simple - what an omission! This is such a delicious product I am about to remedy this at once! When the mornings are getting colder I do like a bowl of porridge to start the day, but I can't be bothered measuring stuff and making it from scratch even with the microwave! Yes, I know, how idle can you get? Bearing this affliction in mind Oats So Simple is just right for me. It is made by Quaker Oats so we know from the outset that it is going to be good. The cereal comes in boxes of 8, 16 or 20 sachets and currently cost £1.42, £2.72 ...  Read the complete review

I never used to be a breakfast eater but over the last year or so I have been won round to the opinion that it is the most important meal of the day and I love to vary what I eat for breakfast and buy different cereals. Now that the weather is getting colder and winter is approaching I'm glad to have some hot food for breakfast but whatever I have has to be quite quick as I don't really feel like messing around for ages doing proper cooking in the mornings. Oat So Simple from Quaker Oats is something that I have bought quite a few times but as I am currently eating the golden syrup variety I thought I would review it. This flavour appealed to me because ...  Read the complete review

Oatso Simple ~ Golden Syrup My hubby and I spend half of our life out in Spain and half here in the Uk and the Spanish health system requires that you go and have a complete health check up every 6 months. All this entails is a quick blood test from which they can detect pretty much anything and rectify any underlying problems very quickly as they are spotted almost immediately. Two weeks after the blood has been taken you return to the doctors (Salud) for your results. Anyway just over a year ago both my husband and myself were given our results as normal and were amazed to find that we both had high blood pressure and high ...  Read the complete review

Coming from a Scottish background it probably seems like heresy that I should buy anything like Ready Brek or Oatso Simple and normally I don't but when I popped round to my local Tesco Express to buy my normal porridge oats they had sold out. I was a bit annoyed because not only do I have porridge to make sure I keep my collestral stays nice and low, I also like it because when I am trying to lose weight a bowl of this in the morning stops my 11 o'clock craving for cake or biscuits because oats are a low GI food which are low(ish) in fat. So because my main shopping delivery isn't until the end of next week, when I saw the 10 36g sachet packs of Quakers golden syrup .  Read the complete review

I have recently discovered this porridge and think its just about the best thing since sliced bread. It is quick, convenient, non messy and filling and simply enough for kids over about 8 to make themselves of a morning. There are several different flavours, some of which include fruit but the golden syrup is the most popular in my house. You get 10 sachets in the pack and you know that it is quality as its made by Quaker Oats a well trusted brand. The main ingredient at 76% is wholegrain rolled oats and it only contains 3% of an adults recommended salt in take and 9% of an adults sugar intake. The mainly blue and yellow box has a ...  Read the complete review
