Free McDonalds oatmeal is not worth the price
I had a coupon for a free McDonald's oatmeal, so I figured I'd try it out. This is easily the worst oatmeal I've eaten in my life. Paste would taste better and would have a better texture.
I think there was a miscommunication at the drive through, the lady might have been saying to wait and I drove off. There's no brown sugar in it, and no packet of it to use myself (not sure if there's supposed to be, but I do know there's somehow a brown sugar option).
I had high hopes when I opened the container. It's full of fruit. Green and red apple bits, lots of raisins, and what must be dried cranberries. It smelled sort of okay, mostly like nothing though.
Tasting it... ugh. The texture is AWFUL. I used to eat oatmeal on a regular basis, so it's not just that I'm unfamiliar with it. This stuff is seriously not worth eating.
260 calories, 18 grams of sugar. I'm not sure how it tastes so bad for that many calories and sugar, but it tastes like something you'd use to seal a hole in your wall. Into the trash it goes! I've been having such bad luck with breakfast lately...

I'm not upset I didn't like it, if I don't go there for oatmeal, I won't be tempted to get other things!

My husband has a taste for their Bacon-Egg-and-Cheese biscuits, so if we're up early enough (which isn't often, heh), he opts for breakfast at Mickey-D's. I usually get an Egg McMuffin, but I tried the oatmeal once and like it a lot better.
The worst oatmeal I've ever had was Quaker's "Weight Control" "maple and brown sugar". Had some horrible sweetener in it that not only tasted awful but left a hideous artificial taste in my mouth for HOURS afterwards. :P Even after drinking OJ and water and brushing my teeth! :P :P

I love the sausage biscuit there (no egg!), but man, it's 400 calories for just one little one! I try to resist as much as I can.
