Haha uhm, it's been kinda "in" for a while. My Mum and sister eats it all the time.

I used to love porridge to me it was similar to eating rice pudding or semolina pudding except it’s for breakfast. I liked mine with sugar, jam or chocolate but it’s such a hassle and now I just love my toast.

Sounds good to me 🙂 The British can be highly conservative in their dietary habits.
I eat mine with unpasteurised milk, a little honey, and a handful of blueberries. My daughrer eats it plain and it fuels her very active days 🙂

Porridge has been a breakfast favorite of the UK for centuries

I had a bowl this morning - maybe a couple of times a week. I must be honest that I've never tried porridge with anything savoury. I have a cup of oats with a pinch of salt, a cup of semi-skimmed milk and one of water. Microwave for about 2 minutes. If I'm feeling really decadent I may have some double cream on top! ;-)

It may once have been a breakfast favorite in the UK but I don't know hardly anyone in England who eats it now. I can't speak for Scotland, where it was always more of a tradition.

@Angliaboy1 We had a Scottish neighbour when I was a kid who made it as a weird smooth gruel. My sisters and I hated that version!

I love porridge but I wouldn't eat it like the Scots have it with just water and salt. It's not healthy for me, needs milk, cream, brown sugar, sultanas and cinnamon so it's a rare treat lol

My Scottish friend adds salt to his porridge. My mother always added sugar or honey.

I eat oatmeal almost every morning with cinnamon, and brown sugar, I would never think of putting an egg in it.

Can’t stand traditional Scottish Porridge but I do like Congee (Chinese Rice Porridge ) 🙂🙂🐼🥢
