I don't see my answer here in this fossilized thread from Michigan Dave. And my answer is not like most of them (lots of sugar seems to rule).
My mind came to the topic when Lori made us a pot of McCaans steel cut oatmeal (The king of all oatmeal in my world). Cooked like pasta I guess. al dente. With brown sugar, and no added liquid. And today since Florida Strawberry season is here (good harbinger of our own awesome fresh strawberries), some tasty fruit finished my vision of the perfect breakfast cereal.
And a reboot may be in order anyhow. New members, changed minds et al.
Cheers, BostonTim
