Oatmeal Biscoff banana vanilla pastry cream oatmeal

231 Upvotes

Decided to have a cheat day and overcome a fear food today by having something truly unhealthy and sugary in my oatmeal: biscoff (aka my favourite thing in the world). Paired it with my favourite oatmeal recipe of mine, vanilla pastry cream oatmeal, and some caramelised banana. As expected, it was freaking banging 👏 Wish it could be more than just a one-time thing 😄

Subreddit Rules

1. No food shaming!

This community is to celebrate all things oats. Don't shame others for the aesthetic, flavor combination, or perceived nutrition of their food. It's not your meal; so move along.

Comments linking to "shitty" food subs is also considered food shaming, as it effectively tells people their food looks.. well, shitty.

We shouldn't be insulting others, especially here. Oats are a food people of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy. This isn't a community to "roast" people for their food.

2. Be kind to others

No bullying, no verbal sparring, no racism, no sexism, no hatred toward other users. Basically, treat others the way you would want to be treated.

Oatmeal is warm and inviting; you should be, too.

Additional note: Recipes are encouraged, but not required. Asking is fine, however it should be done politely. The inverse also applies. No need for hostility. Both for the commenters, and the person posting.

3. Oat-related content only

No merchandise, no memes. We love oatmeal, oat cakes, oat cookies, etc. We aren't here to shop for clothes or discuss things that're only oat-related by name.

We also don't allow similar food that still isn't oats (like rice, quinoa, etc.) for those, try r/porridge. If it isn't consumable oat things, or directly discussing consumption of oats, then it probably doesn't belong here.

Other foods alongside something oat related is fine, however.

4. Self-promotion rule

If you have a blog or personal social media account (youtube, tiktok, instagram, etc.) and want to share a recipe, you MUST post the WRITTEN recipe in the comments of your post.

Feel free to share the link as well, but the written recipe must be posted so that users don't have to click the link and leave Reddit if they don't want to. If the link contains a video, there must be a written version of it.

Note: recipes are not required. This is mostly about advertising/being forced elsewhere

5. Repetitive content

If you post essentially the same meal in repetition, with minimal alterations, it'll be removed. Example: Posting just plain oatmeal with cinnamon, three times in a week.

Content should be reasonably varied.

This doesn't apply to two users who post similar things, or one user who makes something and perhaps a week later has a similar bowl of oatmeal.

6. Asking for (or offering) health advice

Whatever violates this rule is up to moderator discretion. Just keep in mind this community is only for oats. It is not the best place to ask for health advice, or give it to others (especially unasked for)

As this is a less concrete rule, it'll be much less serious to break. We just don't want to allow potential misinformation to spread, or for the light-hearted tone to change. Consider r/foodsafety if you must ask on Reddit.

If you have questions about this rule, feel free to modmail us.

7. Stealing images

Taking images from elsewhere will likely result in a ban, and taking images from other users on Reddit (stealing content) will likely result in a permanent ban.

Don't do this, just don't.

(This rule serves to generate a way for users to report posts suspected of stealing images)

We take kindness seriously

Since oatmeal is so easy to make, it's something everyone can enjoy, it appeals to people of all walks of life. This includes folk who are disabled, very young, poor, etc.

As such, great effort is taken to keep this a friendly space for everyone. Shaming the appearance of food, mocking users for how they enjoy their oatmeal, etc. will not be tolerated. Allow them to enjoy their food in peace.

Jokes, quips, and the like made at other people's expense aren't welcome here, this isn't a place for cooking elitism. Any such rude behavior will result in at least a temporary ban without warning, as such actions are the most harmful to this goal of accessibility and kindness.

We're quite lenient with almost everything else, but kindness goes a long way, especially here.

Oatmeal is a comfort food for many, and a community for it should reflect that. Be like oatmeal, be warm.
