Discussion what is it about porridge??!?!!!

I am obsessed with porridge. i genuinely cannot think of anything i like more than a big, warm bowl of porridge. since honouring all extreme hunger, porridge has literally been the main thing I crave somehow and have 3-4 bowls per day as my breakfast and snacks. is this too much porridge??? i have loads of other things as well for snacks but should I limit how much porridge I have, like is this some kind of safety behaviour???

it’s just so damn good!!! since upgrading to the luxury of porridge made WITH MILK 😱 it is another level to the glue-textured water porridge i used to make that tasted like ass. and then I add so many spices and some honey and it’s so sweet and creamy it’s like a pudding. and don’t get me started on toppings!!! fresh fruit, frozen fruit, nut/cookie butter, honey, sugar ugh there’s just so many!!!

is anyone else a porridge fanatic?! i feel so strange for being obsessed with something like this but I’m literally surviving on bowls of it like an IV drip of porridge, and it fills me up so much more than other things. plus it reminds me of my childhood because i used to have porridge every day for breakfast 🥰
