Why are the oats called " Old Fashioned?"
What does that mean?
Old fashioned oats?
Maybe that weird guy in the Quaker hat made that junk up trying to impress women with old oats.
What is wrong with him?
What kind of women can you lure in with oats?
What if water was old fashioned.
Or maybe grapes.
That is how I am going to impress women from now on.
Tell them I have some "Old Fashion grapes."

And why do the Quakers own the market on oatmeal anyway? It's not like they invented it. They've been eating it over in the UK for centuries. In Scotland they mix it with sheep's blood, salt, and pepper to make black pudding, yummmmmm. And who decided to change the name from porridge to oatmeal? Can we blame that on the Wilfred Brimley wannabe with the silly hat as well?
Here's a funny story I found:
An Englishman and a Scotsman were discussing oats. The Englishman, with his nose in the air said "In England we feed oats to our horses, and in Scotland you feed oats to your men...", to which the Scotsman replied "...that's why in England you have such fine horses and in Scotland we have such fine men!"
Anyway, I'm all worked up now, so I'm gonna go get me a nice big plate of Haggis... which also uses oatmeal as an ingredient (I'll leave the rest of the ingredients out, for the faint of heart).
Cheers!
