On a typical morning, only one in four people (26 percent) actually eat breakfast, with 37 percent of those that don't eat breakfast citing time constraints as the reason for skipping. With families increasingly pressed for time in the morning hours, Quaker Oats, a subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc., offers a tasty and wholesome solution with new Quick 3-Minute Steel Cut Oats.
With two varieties – original and flavored pouches – Quaker® Quick 3-Minute Steel Cut Oats are cut rather than rolled to preserve the hearty texture that has made steel cut oats popular. The new lineup now cuts the traditional cook time down by 10 times – from 30 minutes to three.
"At Quaker, we love to bring the goodness and taste of oats to consumers in new and exciting ways," said Joe Silverman, Senior Marketing Director for Quaker Oats. "Our new Quick 3-Minute Steel Cut oatmeal is ready in minutes, making it an easy option for those craving hearty and steel cut oats, but who may not have been enjoying them due to time constraints."
In addition to their taste and convenience, Quick 3-Minute Steel Cut Oats delivers 100 percent heart-healthy whole grains and dietary fiber; two areas of nutrition improvement as identified in the latest report released by the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee. With the average U.S. diet low in the number of recommended servings of whole grains and many Americans often falling short of their daily fiber intake3, Quick 3-Minute Steel Cut Oats serves as a tasty solution for consumers.

These flavored varieties have a suggested retail price (SRP) of $4.19 per box.
