| There used to be a small shop in downtown Daejeon that sold quaker oatmeal, but that area was redeveloped and the shop closed. Does anyone know of a place in Daejeon where I can buy Quaker Oatmeal? |

Usually buy ours online at ezshopkorea.com, pretty high mark-up I think; then if you need porridge, you need porridge .
Heard a rumour that Costco were carrying some brand, but just seen the Quaker packets with sugary additives. |

I just looked at the site you suggested and Quaker Oats are 18,500 won per box. The shop in Daejeon was 14,500. I thought that was high, but wow. I think I'll have to pass on that one. Thanks for the info, though. |

| I have some Quaker Oats that I brought back from my trip to Cebu 2 months ago. I have several 1kg sealed packages. If you want to buy some, send me a PM |

Thanks. Can you tell me the Korean name of the product? I don't see oatmeal listed anywhere. |

| There are a lot of sellers on gmarket hawking the big 1.2kg tubs of quakers which I presume is what you're after. Going price is usually around 12,500 for 1 or 23000 for 2. That's a lot of oats. |
