Poncy Porridge.

The trendy food has made it to Germany - with the rather terrible name of N'oats - the apostrophe seems part of the brandname but isn't consistently used in the copy on the website of manufacturers/distributors mymuesli.com.
You can even buy it as N'oats2Go - oats with fruit flakes etc. in a pot noodle cup (just add milk/water). At the supermarket it was a 40g cup for €1,90 or online you can buy 12 cups for €19,90.
Mind boggles.
Very expensive oats. Well, ORGANIC oats, but I guess this is for the people who don't remember their grandparents eating Haferbrei in the mornings or who got to eat Haferschleim when they were ill?
I actually quite like porridge and I guess the to go variety is very convenient for office lunch. I also like the idea of adding some nice and tasty extra ingredients.
But the marketing is just amazing. They've got "recipes" on the website, too - telling you how to add water and milk.
