When I was a kid, I’d sometimes eat oatmeal out of the box.
Now, I like oatmeal hot, with just lots of butter and salt. I’m not a fan of putting fruit and sweet stuff in it. But I think sometimes people include it in toasted granola recipes, and I’ve liked that.
I had a friend born 200 years too late. Ran a trapline as a young teen. A farmer, wondering why he was parked near his land, found the guy gulping dry instant oatmeal packets during a break.
“Not looking to waste money on toilet paper?”, the farmer asked.
