I normally put brown sugar and pecans on mine.

I don’t like sweet oatmeal. Just butter.

Hi! I like chocolate oatmeal cookies(no bake) the best, Then, for sweet oatmeal; stiff made with milk or half milk and half water, not sticky and with: brown sugar, honey, maple, white sugar, nuts, raisins, apples or cinnamon. Any or all of the above but NOT bananas, yuck. I don't like bananas in cereal, period.
If we have instant oatmeal, just add salt, sunflower oil and ground peanuts/nuts. I also love Granola, but never eat cereal bars.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Mmmmm, oatmeal
Let's see.
Banana, chopped (ripe, not green)
Chopped pecans
Raisins
Chopped dates
Little swirl of sugar-free maple syrup
Cream if I have it or milk if I don't (2% organic)
Pat of plant-based butter (knew I forgot something!)

I think that's all ....
Oh. Sometimes a swirl of ... peanut butter. That makes it a complete protein. Uh-huh, yeah!
Yup. Sounds good! Thanks, will have this for breakfast tomorrow. Too bad it's too late to have this tonight!

Don't eat oatmeal

Same for me. I don’t think the supermarket sells it.

I do eat oat flakes mixed with dried fruits and seeds (kind of a musli) with yoghurt.

I can't imagine any supermarket not selling it. It would be in the cereal aisle with the hot cereals, across from the boxed cold cereals. It's in a cylundrical bos like this, and comes in "old-fashioned" and "quick-cooking" varieties, as well as instant (just add hot water, or microwave).

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Oh ... sorry, @BDutch, maybe they don't sell it in your country?

I don’t eat oatmeal much but when I do, I put in molasses and wheat germ if my mom is in the kitchen; otherwise, it’s chocolate syrup or chocolate chips, occasionally with fruit.

I know I can buy oat meal at the mill to mix it with wheat to bake bread or cookies. I’ve never seen it in the supermarket but I checked and they do have it, at least online. Wholegrain and refined. Only one brand. Its not a very common product here.

Oat flakes are more common and available in all kind of brands and sometimes with fruits in it too.
Online the supermarket sells Quaker oat flakes too. In plain, with banana, apple and cinnamon, chocolate, etc. Quaker is a very expensive brand here.

Im beginning to wonder… do you say oatmeal for what is actually oat-flakes?

That looks more like cream of wheat to me.
