Porridge!

This is the best food IN THE WORLD for a cold winter's morning. It is an absolutely wonderful body fuel.

I'm sorry if I'm biased, but Scottish porridge is just the best thing ever. Whether you eat it with salt, sugar or in my case honey; there's no better start to the day.

So you folks south of the border can keep your "full English", you Americans your pancakes; and all the rest of your cultures out there in Blipland your national breakfasts, nothing compares to our wonderful porridge!

FLASHBACK: I have just remembered that my granny in the 1970s used to line a bedroom dressing table drawer ( a "tallboy" as it was known) with greaseproof paper and pour thick porridge into it to set. Once it was set it was cut into bars and given as snacks - the original energy bar!
