Porridge returns to the Brit breakfast table

Sale of Porridge 'Nearly Double'

The British are coming back to their hot morning oats, or porridge, something like American oatmeal, we are told, but not exactly oatmeal either.

The BBC story used this captivating photo as enticement, we suppose.

We're thinking porridge might be better deep fried, with bits of bacon stirred in before hand, and maybe topped with cheese, onion and picante sauce.

Better yet just skip the porridge, whisk some eggs and get on with the Southwestern omelette.
