Howdy Tuesday

-Let's talk about oatmeal. Because you know what? It's delicious. Eating it is not a moral choice. Yes, it's a healthy food, but I find it just as tasty and possibly more satisfying than a breakfast taco, a bagel with cream cheese, or any other "less healthy" choice. I'm eating oatmeal because I like it, and because there's a giant box of it here

Hehe, I was about to say, if "Dark Harvest" wasn't the most disturbing episode of Invader ZIM, THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.

"Bad, Bad Rubber Piggy."

I think they're in a dead heat for "most disturbing."

[firynze]

Not disturbing at all, just loaded with squishy organs and headpigeons!

Bwuh. And the instant stuff is probably as sugary as some "less healthy" breakfastables anyhow (but boy, it tastes good). Sometimes you want to reap the spiritual benefits of eating something you enjoy, ffs. (And it's not a moral failing if you can't eat oatmeal because the taste just doesn't jibe with you, either.)

I think as far as instant stuff goes, this is pretty non-sugary. It's the Cinnamon Spice flavor of Quaker Oats. *shrug*

It's nummy and it's not overpoweringly sweet like the maple brown sugar flavor.

Aha, I think you're right. And I do like Quaker Oats.

#8 was the only episode of Zim I ever saw, prompted by the g/f at the time.

Yeah. Bad choice.

YES!! Oatmeal is delicious! NOM!

Quakers Old-Fashioned oats, some milk, some butter, and cinnamon. Eaten every single weekend in this house. Nom.

Oatmeal: It keeps you righteous, moral, and regular*.
