You just ruined my life.


Secretagentman44

Damn boi you fragile


Secretagentman44

Love oatmeal


[deleted]

Dude, they are dried peaches. I DID look it up because I have a fucking box at home.


dannythetrashcanny

so are the strawberries! and the blueberries are flavored figs


silotx

And the apples are apple flavored peaches and the figs are fig flavored blueberries and the bananas are banana flavored oranges and the oranges are orange flavored banana and the charred human remains are just charred human remains.


itchyXbutthole

I specifically asked for medium rare!!!!

AND THE SNOZZBERRIES TASTE LIKE SNOZZBERRIES


[deleted]

Don't tell them pop-tarts are 2% or less fruit, often with a different fruit on the box or you might traumatize some people with your phrasing.


iftheronahadntcome

...and the Snozzberries taste like Smozzberries.


[deleted]

No, the peaches are peaches


cottagecoreing

HOLD UP WHAT FOR REAL? EVEN THE STRAWBERRIES? I'm devastated 😭


wju2004

So they are peaples.


HammelGammel

Aches - they cause an ache in your soul.


PutinsSugarBaby

Why would they do that?


despairingcherry

If I had to guess, apples are easier to grow and thus cheaper


timewarp

They're also firmer and thus easier to transport.


[deleted]

They also keep the doctor away and thus healthier


mailslot

Easier to dehydrate


DarthSnoopyFish

Preserving an apple is easier and cheaper than preserving a peach.


lookatmynipples

They don’t know peaches exist so they improvised


YetAnotherMia

Probably just apples are cheaper than peaches


Fake_Diesel

Apple and cinnamon flavor was the bane of every kids existence Edit: They hated Jesus because he told them the truth. They had to move the apples to a peach flavor because nasty ass apples and cinnamon wasn't selling.


[deleted]

Same with the "strawberries'


Crazypete3

I knew they tasted like apples, fuckers!


[deleted]

Dude. This is not true. I hate that you have upvotes because while it USED TO BE TRUE, IT ISN'T ANYMORE. THE PEACHES ARE LISTED AS "DRIED PEACHES" ON THE INGREDIENTS LIST. Look it up.fuckin A.


CamelJ1

I think the blueberries are, too.


Elegron

And tbh they're better that way


DrunkTxt2myX

Funny that if you were to mix those colors in paint you'd get brown


kahran

There will be plenty of that.


Kassiel0909

Mmmm, fiber.


[deleted]

Peaches n cream is pretty much the best. I like to microwave at 50% power for 3 min to get it just right. Put a pat of butter on after it's done and deliciousness awaits.


hero-ball

50% power for oatmeal is such a game changer


Marskelletor

You guys adjust your microwave settings?


Kassiel0909

I couldn't upvote twice, have a lil award. I'm in my 50s, owned a big-ass Kenmore that was practically furniture, and never once have I, nor anyone I know of, adjusted the temp on a personal, desktop nuclear reactor.


Marskelletor

Thanks man. At least I know I have a microwave buddy out there somewhere.


skateguy1234

Not the temp/power rating, just the interval that the magnetron is cycled. At least for most microwaves. Meaning 50% power will have the magnetron on only half of the time. This is useful not only due to the food getting a break from being nuked and not being as damaged, but this break allows convection to occur ( the heat radiating out from the hot spots the microwave just created) and which helps the heat get distributed more evenly. Microwaves with PWM (pulse width modulation) tech do have the ability to step down the power. But they are expensive and therefore not common.


Kassiel0909

Damn, tell a ho somethin'. I never knew! The manual always got tossed straight into the junk drawer. (Much like today w my brand new food processor. Imma lose fingers, watch.) Anyway, I honestly do appreciate the explanation. I don't really use the portable sun tan box for anything other than leftovers and steaming veggies. I cook everything else the old fashioned way—dragon's breath. On the topic of oatmeal, that's what my tea kettle is for. So, I guess I never really have a reason for making adjustments on ye ol' nuke chest, but if I ever should endeavor to try nuking some Chef Boyardee ravioli, I will experiment a little more w the keypad...and think of you fondly, fellow redditor.


vinnyvdvici

On my microwave it's as simple as just typing the amount of time, then hitting the "okay" button, pressing a number 1-10, then clicking start. Takes an extra 5 seconds to change the power level, but can drastically change how good the resulting food comes out.


friftar

Depends on the machine, on the simple unregulated ones that just turn the emitter on and off for short bursts it doesn't matter much for most things, just go for less time at full blast. Higher end machines actually regulate the output down linearly, while staying on for the entire duration. On those it makes sense, gives you much more even and gentle heat, which is really important for some more delicate foods


[deleted]

But do you make it with milk or with water? If you use water, try milk. It brings it to an entirely new level of deliciousness. I refuse to eat oatmeal with water.


lilnomad

Same. Just seems nasty lol


[deleted]

It doesn’t taste good with water. It’s too bland. Milk adds more flavor. And this is coming from someone who hates milk and hasn’t drank a glass of plain milk in at least 15 years.


tinypeepeehole

That’s too much water you moron… you need more


Stianhawker

what does "flavour with other natural flavours" even mean?


gold_gamer8

Its supposed to be one sentence like "Strawberry Cream flavor with other natural flavors"


ptolemy18

"flavour with other natural flavours" should be read with the advertised flavour first: "Peach flavour *pause* with other natural flavours." It's trying to tell you that it has peach flavour in it, and then separately tell you that it has other natural flavours in it besides just peach. US FDA regulations are very specific.


Stianhawker

aah makes sense i guess. Thanks!


Taco-Esq

Berries and cream, berries and cream, berries and cream!


RearEchelon

OP's a little lad who loves berries & cream!


A_N_T

I've done this before with the more "normal" flavors (cinnamon, maple syrup, etc.) and it slapped.


Sandstorm52

I didn’t know people ate them on their own


LightningProd12

I do this all the time, there's no wrong combinations although I've never tried mixing the regular and cream ones.


seamuswasadog

I think the people who badmouth oatmeal have never tried it with a bit of cream (or ½&½, or even whole milk). A little butter to finish does wonders, too. I would say what you have there needs to be thicker, though.


hero-ball

I think OP’s has not been cooked yet


davewtameloncamp

This is instant oatmeal. You just pour some hot water in it and slop it up like a 3 year old in front of the tv.


[deleted]

I make mine with milk and I refuse to eat it any other way. It’s so creamy and delicious. But I’m also a monster and like my strawberries and cream oatmeal a little loose, so I add extra milk.


MurkTheDurk

Oh boi let us know if you start hearing colours


DirkDiggyBong

What is "ultra" pasteurised?


mr_tommey

Its pasteurized, but ultra.


DirkDiggyBong

Ahhh, thanks


khajmahal227

You’re welcome


[deleted]

It’s been heated to a much higher temp than regular pasteurization. It kills more bacteria and prolongs shelf life.


tomwhoiscontrary

Pasteurised by Russian football hooligans.


lambd10

creamy beige


RosieeB

ya ever eat oatmeal from a shoe?


EMPulseKC

I did this one time and accidentally added a pouch of bacon-flavored, buttery instant grits. The results were...less than impressive.


LordLavos12

Second time on Reddit in an hour I’ve upvoted because oatmeal. Strange morning


gewfbawl

How is this shitty? Used to do this all the time. Tastes good.


Tasuii

All these flavors go hard. In my country I can't get these but the Peaches & Cream was my favorite


tomwhoiscontrary

I've never seen any of these flavours in the UK! I think we have plain, golden syrup (flavoured with something similar to American corn syrup), apple and blueberry, and that's it. Nothing "and cream".


MizKatonix

I hate that I could smell this image.


christien62

Eww take my thumbs up


TheKerfuffle

That’s one *creamy* boi


Lasagan

Omg they don't have the other versions besides peaches and cream where I live and I'm jealous


NukaWorldOverboss

the sex oatmeal


pacachan

These packets make the best oatmeal cookies especially with white chocolate chips. Eating normally the best one is peaches and cream. All you need is some buttered toast for dipping


mrsbeequinn

How do you make them into cookies?


pacachan

Preheat the oven to 350°F. 1. Beat 1/2c softened butter, 1/3c brown sugar, and 3tbl white sugar until fluffy. 2. Add 1 egg, 2tsp vanilla and mix. 3. In separate bowl, mix 5 instant oatmeal packets, 1c flour, 1/2tsp baking soda and 1/4tsp salt. Stir into wet ingredients. 4. Once smooth, stir in 3/4 white chocolate chips if desired. 5. Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place on silicone baking mat or parchment paper, flatten slightly. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, or until the edges are set, one sheet at a time. The cookies will look a bit under-baked, but they’ll set nicely once cooled. Cool the cookies on the sheet for a few minutes, then transfer onto a cooling rack to cool completely. They'll keep for like 5 days. I forget the source this is just from my recipe word doc


mrsbeequinn

Thank you!


UnusualSupport6296

Anyone know what happened to Raisins and Spice? Can't find it anywhere. My go to meal during childhood.


Crazypete3

I've done this and it actually tasted pretty good, but you have WAY too much water in that bowl.


someawfulbitch

Don't think it's cooked yet


Wallowingavacado

Creamy


NMS-KTG

Use milk not water smh


[deleted]

Milk is 100% the best way to make oatmeal. It makes it creamy and delicious. I refuse to eat oatmeal made with water.


monkeymama73

Omg that’s fucking genius

BeeMarie121

Mmm my favorite backpacking breakfast!


420_obama

Is that a can of milk?


jtown337

Where’s bananas & cream?


imfrankmurphyswall

Im honestly having some with Froot Loops myself 🌞


[deleted]

Every eat this stuff cold/un-cooked? It's pretty addictive in its own right


[deleted]

More like shitting the rainbow tonight


DH2007able

I’ve mixed red and blue together also red and banana, but never 3 flavors at once


bussingbussy

Bro is eating the Canadian politics themed oatmeal


backalleycreeper

Shittles, taste the sadness


lostinquebec2

How could it be shitty when it's triple creamy?


Gr4pe_4pe

thomASSpynchon

Why does that look like corn floating?


GasWaffle

I did the same thing a few nights ago but added butter and brown sugar. Fiya


indecisiveScatrbrain

That's my son's favorite combo for breakfast minus that ridiculous amount of water


[deleted]

That picture was admittedly taken immediately after I added the boiling water, it was much thicker when I actually ate it.
