Did you know that the iconic Quaker Oats Canister is 100 years old?! We’re helping to celebrate their Anniversary!!! 100 years ago, they proved that it’s hip NOT to be square – but round instead. Now, a hundred years later, we’re still using that round canister! They deliver more than 350 million pounds of oatmeal each year!
Just look at how the brand packaging has evolved over the years! Do you have memories of the older packaging from when you were little? I sure do! I totally remember the canisters from the 80s!
If you’re looking for some delish new Quaker cookie and granola recipes for the holidays, you can enjoy these! Each recipe is found on the photos below…..enjoy!!
I can’t really pick and choose any of the recipes above….so I’m sure I’ll be making some of each of them. We’re planning to have a cookie exchange party with some of my family and friends soon – so this should be lots of fun!!
