I like the texture of rolled oats better than steel cut oats, but if someone made me steel cut oats I wouldn't turn them down.
Today's mystery: why is the cat walking around yodeling mournfully? The reasons could include (but are not limited to): he is a cat, he saw a bug he can't get, he saw another cat outside, he expected to see another cat outside but there was no cat, he ate all his wet food and now it is gone, 11:15 a.m. is yodeling time, no apparent reason, and he knows it drives me nuts when he yodels for no apparent reason.
Y'all can have all the oats.
(And all the raisins, not that they were mentioned. And especially all the oatmeal raisin cookies.)
I prefer grits, myself. With butter, and a little soy sauce.
I do rolled oats sometimes too, or put them in a topping for a baked good. But the grocery store with bulk goods sells a pound of steel cut for $2.19.
Edit: Whoa, man, no one mentioned raisins. I would never put them in oatmeal. Or anything.

I love grits! I have them with butter and salt, so maybe I'll swap out the salt for soy sauce. V. intrigued!
One of my favorite grits dishes to make is a ripoff from Waffle House: grits with butter and some cheese, with scrambled eggs and diced sausage on top. Also good with diced tomatoes or salsa. (This is all in one bowl.)
God, now I want that for lunch.
In the winter I like steel-cut oats with crumbled breakfast sausage and just a little bit of maple syrup.
Mmm, grits. One of my favorite uses for the Instant Pot.
dcp, my sister hated raisins, so when I made oatmeal cookies for her, I substituted butterscotch chips. The recipe did include pecans, which she was OK with, so it wasn't a major change to the recipe.
Mmmm, grits. Nice spicy shrimp & grits is a favorite, but really just butter is fine too. I'll take all your raisins and oatmeal raisin cookies too!
The butterscotch chips were good. I like raisins well enough, but I do prefer the cookies with the chips.
