Blech!

[thistlechaser]

Holy cow, "normal" oatmeal tastes bad! Blech blech blech! Two spoonfuls into this attempt and I don't think I can go much further. Eating three packets of much much much better tasting instant oatmeal would be better than eating three-fourths of a cup of this stuff (which absorbs enough water to make it look equal to three packets of the other stuff). Man, how does anyone eat this? It tastes like... well, not like much... a little like the sugar I added (but not in a good way, if that's possible). But the consistency is what's really odd. It slimes your lips. It's icky and mushy in your mouth (more than instant). It really has this gross slimy feeling, it hits your roof of your mouth and tongue before you start chewing.

I should probably have known this was too good to be true. There are no shortcuts and no easy ways to get healty. Oh well, back to instant tomorrow for me... and back to trying to force myself to eat as much of this as I can.

Blech!
