Even all of that delicious fruit is not going to make oatmeal more appetizing for me. I've been trying to eat it every single day because it helps with cholesterol and so many other things, but I really, really hate it.
Lilbc, change your breakfast to muesli - it gives you many of the same benefits as oatmeal, but is MUCH more tasty. No one should start the day by eating something you hate! And if you want to make the muesli even more beneficial, add some hemp seeds - available at many groceries and heath food stores. I get mnie at Costco.

I found a change of Cheerios and Quaker Oat Squares and a dash of dried cranberries All in one bowl. Absolutely no elimination problemsl, if you know what I mean?

Me too. I like oatmeal cookies but not oatmeal no matter how it is flavored.

I love it in cookies too but just cooked tastes slimy to me.

My dad ate oatmeal most of his life. Pasted at 99 1/2. Must have been healthy. I eat it with dash of salt, honey, raisons, milk and sometimes cut up a banana. Pretty good.

Hi beckydent, my dad also ate oatmeal every morning and got to 95...I'd better catch up to you and eat mine! : )

Hey aknan, you were so right. I did start eating muesli not long after your post and you were right. It is so much better than oatmeal. I just LOVE eating muesli for breakfast. I actually look forward to the meal now and it has helped my cholesterol. So thanks for that advice. I'm sorry it took so long for me to thank you.
When I was teaching, I made myself have oatmeal every morning. If I didn't, I got a headache by lunchtime. A piece of toast didn't do it. It helped to have brown sugar sprinkled over it. And fruit helped. Haven't had it since!

Good night and God bless. Hugs.
