McDonald’s Oatmeal
In more than one conversation with more than one group of people, I have heard someone ask, “Has anyone tried the oatmeal at McDonald’s yet?” And no one had. So this morning, I stopped in before an appointment an ordered some:
The oatmeal is instant, which by default turns off some people. Not me. However, I often run into trouble because I like my oatmeal less…soupy than some. I have been known to drain my oatmeal when I get it from Starbucks. I am happy to say that was not the case here.
I saw the lady pour the dry oatmeal into the cup and use the hot water from the coffee machine and I think I might have seen her splash in a bit of cream. Her back was turned to me, so I am not sure.
The promised fresh apples were stirred in, along with some brown sugar and the raisins that you see on top. I thought it was very tasty. And with my giant one dollar Diet Coke, I was very happy with my breakfast.

I discovered the McD's oatmeal at an airport recently. With a large diet coke, it really is the perfect meal.Kris Dahlberg
