First off, this one smelled awesome. You could literally smell the maple syrup through the packet, and I love Maple Syrup! When I poured the water, the sweet maple smell also came through even stronger. I couldn’t wait to dig in. There was also actual pieces of hazel nuts in the oatmeal. Not too many, but it added an unexpected bit of flavor. It was the right amount of sweetness-not too sugary and was actually pretty satisfying given it was instant oatmeal.
