Yumm - both the DH and I have porridge on a regular basis. He makes his
oatmeal with milk, and adds more milk and brown sugar on top. I prefer
Red River Cereal which I make in the microwave and top with yoghurt,
dried cranberries and on occasion, pecans.

I remember educating a North American family when they were reprimanding
the waitress in an hotel in Inverness because their breakfast porridge
was "salty". I explained that the custom in the Highlands was to use
salt and not sugar.

IAP!!!! And then GAG! I simply cannot eat hot cereal of any kind.
A few years back they were advertising eating Grape Nuts heated. I
like Grape Nuts, so I thought I'd try it. No way, no how could I get
it down.
