Skunk -
Instant oatmeal falls into the "processed foods" category - it's amazing how they can take something really good for you and reduce its goodness for the sake of convenience...
That said, real oatmeal (Quaker Oats, etc.) is inexpensive, and can be ready in nearly the time that instant is - boil water, add oats, cook for 1 minute, and it's ready.
I add frozen fruit like blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc. plus some honey. Usually suppliment it with some lead sausage or some other protein source.
Just my $.02
