Class Objective: Discussing food we ate in the past tense/learning vocabulary for ordering from restaurants.

Although both are familiar breakfast choices, they offer contrasting experiences in taste, nutrition, and the meanings people may establish around them. Oatmeal is made by cooking oats in water or milk until they become a warm, creamy porridge. Its flavor is mild rather than intense, but it can easily be enriched with fruit, nuts, or spices. Because oats are high in fiber and contain slow-releasing carbohydrates, oatmeal provides steady energy throughout the morning. Many people, including members of large or extended family households, rely on oatmeal because it is affordable, nutritious, and easy to prepare in bigger portions. For these reasons, oatmeal is of...
