If your New Year’s resolution is to eat healthier, McDonald’s is the last place you’ll want to go. However, if you want to break that resolution, McDonald’s might be the first place you’ll go. But starting January 3rd, you might be able to walk into a McDonald’s and walk out with your New Year’s resolution intact, thanks to their new Fruit & Maple Oatmeal.
The oatmeal contains half a cup of fruit, which consists red and green apples, dried cranberries, and golden and regular raisins. All that wholesomeness will give you five grams of dietary fiber and two-thirds of your daily recommended intake of whole grain.
You’ll be able to get the Fruit & Maple Oatmeal with or without brown sugar. With sugar, the serving of oatmeal will contain 290 calories, and 260 without it. It will be available all day long for $1.99.

You have to admire MacDonald’s for changing with the times.
People want to eat healthier and at least they are making an effort to diversify their menus.
Starbucks has been selling oatmeal for almost 2 years.
Supermarkets have been selling instant oatmeal for almost 300,000 years.
The Scots have been shoving oatmeal into sheep’s organs for eleventy billion years.
There’s so many directions that statement could go…
Me no touchy that one. 🙂
My McDonalds has been selling this oatmeal for well over a year. It’s pretty descent.
starbucks oatmeal is over priced and comes from the instant quaker packets. good job mcdonalds, some of us need a little pick me up that isn’t going to work as a fatty laxative heart attack. warm food is good food in winter in chicago.
