And I'm gung-ho about January being the official oatmeal month. It has been deemed as such because more people eat oatmeal during January than any other month of the year. That reason is good enough for me to celebrate this fantastic food. Not only is oatmeal inexpensive, but it is also quick and easy to prepare. Oatmeal has tons of other delicious uses.
Cookies taste better when they're made with oatmeal.
And, homemade bread always seems to be a little more yummy when oatmeal is scattered on the top of the loaf. Oatmeal in food just makes people happier. Except in Columbus, Ohio, of course where therethe country's smallest population of oatmeal consumers lives, according to Quaker Oats. It makes me ashamed to think that the city I was born in is full of oatmeal haters. They should be ashamed of themselves.
