Was so excited to see these back on the shelf. What a disappointment!!! Even my husband noticed and he’s not the picky kind at all. Not crunchy at all. Please go back to the old product. Definitely won’t be purchasing again. 😕
Do not buy this, not the same.

Went from being my favorite cereal to the worst. I'll never buy this again. I do not know why it was changed. Terrible idea. Has absolutely no flavor.
Replacement oatmeal squares a sorry substitute

I’ve eaten oatmeal squares almost every morning for decades, but this replacement version is not good. I bought 4 boxes. After one helping, I trashed the rest and donated the unopened 3 boxes. I really miss this cereal but the replacement version is a non-starter.
So incredibly sad

I can’t believe it after months of waiting for the cinnamon Square crunch cereal from Quaker oats due to their screwup! They changed the recipe. Why would they do that? Isn’t there anything to loyalty anymore? We were loyal to the cereal. We love the cereal, the crunch, the heaviness the Feeling of being full after eating it. Now we have puffs!! So unhappy, first at Southwest and now it’s Quaker Oats! You’re gonna have to find a whole new millions of people to eat your cereal
RIP Quaker Oat Squares

The whole product team should lose their jobs over this change which I am sure was done to cut costs. Have you ever heard of market research?

This is my favorite cereal. We just discovered it this year and our whole family loves it. Very lightly sweet, great crunch and a very appealing shape. It’s delicious with our without a bowl of milk, however, in milk it still maintains a great crunch. I always get 2 boxes when Target runs their 2 for $9 promotions! Love it!
From Crunchy Squares in 80's, to Puffy Rectangles

I just bought my first box in about 5 years, and I'm sad to say, it's nothing like the version I grew up with. What we loved about it was the hard CRUNCH, so satisfying. Now, they've inexplicably made them airy and puffy. It's so different they should call it a different name--Oatmeal Puffs. Quaker + PespsCo, it's not the same cereal--so don't call it the same name. Puffy, flavorless, ersatz (an inferior substitute).

What a disappointment, after waiting 1 1/2 years. They are NOT! the same as before the recall. Not as crunchy , not the same shape and NOT the same flavor.

I used to love this product but they have definitely changed the recipe and the new version is terrible! The squares aren’t crunchy enough, they lack flavor, and they disintegrate in liquid way too fast. I don’t know why they went and changed a great product. I’m also a little surprised the recipe made it past testing…who in the works likes styrofoam like cereal with very little flavor? So disappointed.
Yes it’s different😋 but still good!

Gross! Do not buy if you want the OG recipe.

The new recipe is a joke compared to the old stuff. The new recipe instantly disintegrates in my vs the old having a good amount of texture to it. It seems like that they decided to make a cheap product that is like any other cereal on the market. I have been accustomed to the original recipe for at least 20 years and it is sad that they made such an awful change

I don't understand the bad reviews. I have been eating this cereal for years and was so hurt when they stopped production, understandably. I actually prefer the new. It's still sweet and crunchy. Yes it's different but in a good way. The older version was more compact and hard while this new version is lighter and WAY easier on my teeth. I love it and hope it stays this way⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
SO SAD!! Not the same…

I was so excited to see my favorite cereal back in the shelves. However, they taste completely different and are honestly flavorless with a cardboard like aftertaste (even different in shape). Bring back the old recipe please!!!
I give these a zero star rating

What has happened to my favorite cereal? I haven't had this in a while and got a craving for it. I am in disbelief and utter shock! This isn't even the same cereal! Flavorless, textureless, crunchless pieces of cardboard. Yuck! So sad, it used to be so good! I will not waste my time, calories, money on this product. Oh and you can change the name to Oatmeal Tiny Rectangles.

Why did you change Squares?? I was so excited to see them. I bought two boxes. Now I’m sorry I did. They are nothing like before the recall.

Been missing it since the recall. Still not on shelves near me. Now I’m hearing it’s back but has been changed. Why would you do this to us. :(. One of the few cereals I like that can also be bought in wic. I longed for it my entire pregnancy and was teased by seeing it listed on the approved list only to never see it in stores.
GO BACK TO THE OLD RECIPE!!

The new recipe is terrible... terrible. Quaker Oatmeal Squares Brown sugar has been my favorite for almost 30 years! Been waiting for it to come back from the previous recall and it comes back on the shelves completely different. No flavor, no crunch, it's not even square anymore, the color is even lighter, it's just not the same! What happened?? Bring the old recipe back! That is the biggest problem with these companies, leave the recipe alone!!! That's how you start to lose customers! Just disappointed and sad that I have to stop eating something that WAS so good and NOW tastes horrible!!!
New recipe is horrible

These have recently been changes to smaller rectangles that don’t taste as good. They also are softer and instantly get soggy in milk. Unless they go back to the original recipe I will mot be buying these anymore.
