To be fair, most things don´t taste that well on their own.

Wait until you hear about rice and pasta.

Defenders of McDonald’s chicken nuggets surprised to learn they contain 38 ingredients.

Oatmeal like rice, tofu, grits, or any number of other foods is a flavor vehicle.

Anyone making the assertion that ingredients must taste good on their own to be considered tasty is free to go try vanilla extract to compare it to vanilla icecream.

Well no shit, ever heard of cooking?

Why do people insist on randomly hating what other people eat? The textbook definition of differing tastes between different people than cannot be accounted for? Unless your kid is named Oatmeal and they ate them, maybe mind your own business.

Steel cut oats don't need anything except maybe a little milk. They're delicious, fight me.

Oatmeal is a nothing base.

Do you know how much work it takes to make a filling base stock that can pivot in any direction?

Savory, Sweet, Salty?

Oatmeal is a fucking miracle centuries in the making.

Fish, Chicken, Beef, Pork, Vegetables, or Botanicals all go well with it.

I mean, in a pinch you can get away with just butter and salt. Oats taste fine by themselves, it's just really boring after two bites.

EDIT: I am not a horse.

I love and eat oatmeal every day. More than ones through the day actually, plain

Just oats and water.

If i want something different than nothing beats fruits in this game for me. A good apple sauce is also awesome on oatmeal.

Oatmeal is a grain product, so yeah, adding other things to it to make it more to your personal liking is kinda the point.

This is like saying bread is bad because most people like it in a sandwich.

I eat oats just about every single day. The only time I'm not eating oats is around the holidays.

But I definitely don't mind unflavored oats. Normally I eat them savory, but plain oats are fine I suppose.

And here I am, enjoying just plain oats with tap water 🤷‍♂️

If all you eat is flavoured, over salted, over sweetened, highly processed food, then that's all your tastebuds will find enjoyable.

It's fine by itself. I mean, it ain't winning any awards for taste, because it's not good but it's not awful either. It just exists. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I just put a handful of blueberries or cut up strawberries in mine for some stimulation. The main reason for me to have oatmeal is that it is super quick and extremely filling with just a small portion. Efficiency food.

7 of those 17 things are sugar and sugar accessories

I literally eat oatmeal raw and dry like a godamm horse eating out of a trough. Yes I have a problem.

Same with Starbucks coffee

Oatmeal can't compare to the natural tasting notes of cinnamon toast crunch

Edit: On a serious note, Oatmeal is kind of like Coffee where you start by getting the ready made instant stuff, get a taste for it, begin to narrow your selection and then create your own perfect formula

Alright, well, fuck off then. Go eat whatever. If I catch you wrinkling your nose at my breakfast I dehumanize you and treat you as an NPC, just one of the things that's installed in here that I have to walk around.

Or you can let people eat their food without commenting on their business

Oatmeal with some cinnamon is great, if you don't have the palate of a child

I just do a cup of soymilk, pinch of salt, teaspoon of molasses until it boils, them i add a cup of oats and a quarter cup of raisins and it's a quick and delicious breakfast

Meanwhile I don't even cook the oatmeal, just eat the little flakes straight up and like it.

Uh...brown sugar is one thing, not 17.
