Quaker Real Medleys
So, I received a sample of this in my Holiday 2012 Voxbox from Influenster. The purpose was to let me try it out so that I could review it for the world. I tried the pistachio cherry and was very impressed. Honestly, it tastes like the kind of oatmeal I make from scratch. When I make oatmeal, I mix it myself granola-style. This flavor is the same. Everything tastes fresh and new, and the texture is like homespun muesli.
What I like best about these is their convenience. I'm a green consumer with a goal of purchasing products in bulk which are in safe, reusable or recyclable containers. At the same time, I sometimes have to reach for convenience as my job carries me all over the state in which I live. It's not always feasible to make something from scratch or to pack something before I head out the door. The trick, then, is to find something I can grab that is delicious, wholesome, and relatively small in terms of carbon footprint. While I'm not thrilled at travel-sized packaging in general, I have to say I'd reach for Real Medleys over other options because at least the cardboard is recyclable (and easily).
The taste and texture is great. I'd highly recommend this to anyone!
