True. Oats made into porridge.

However, in the UK, porridge also has connotations to jail.

I have been eating porridge/oats for years. I have tried various other off-the-shelf breakfast cereals, but they don't provide the long-term energy requirements either for my work or riding.

I do suffer a little from indigestion when setting out on rides if I have eaten only just beforehand.

If I am making it for just myself, and I use a pot on the stove, I just add the milk and sugar and eat it from the pot. Saves on washing up a bowl and the pot is easy to clean under running water with a dish brush.
