O is for Oatmeal (and Oreos)

Oatmeal is a staple we have in our house at all times. My hubby doesn’t eat it, but the rest of us do. It is a smooth and creamy comfort food.

Oooo ya…. And Oreos. There is another comfort food that begins with “O.” I have a particular problem with Double Stuff Oreos.

Anyway, oatmeal is supposed to lower your risk of heart disease, right? That’s what major oatmeal companies claim. Do they mean with or without the added sugar and artificial flavor? I love the maple and brown sugar flavor. Is that still good for me? Sometimes I feel like I’ve eaten a candybar after a morning serving of oatmeal. Still, it is yummy and warm and gooey. My kind of food.

(And let’s not get into the Oreos… or maybe we should.)
