To be fair, most things don´t taste that well on their own.

Now finish your bowl of ketchup.
Spinach meet lime.
Tell that to some fruit.
Yeah, I've tasted a lot of single men who taste great!
Wait until you hear about rice and pasta.
Pasta? You mean flour with a bunch of stuff added to it?
Defenders of McDonald’s chicken nuggets surprised to learn they contain 38 ingredients.
Oatmeal is a grain product, so yeah, adding other things to it to make it more to your personal liking is kinda the point.
This is like saying bread is bad because most people like it in a sandwich.
Wheat is bad because you have to add more than just water to make bread
Oatmeal like rice, tofu, grits, or any number of other foods is a flavor vehicle.
Anyone making the assertion that ingredients must taste good on their own to be considered tasty is free to go try vanilla extract to compare it to vanilla icecream.
Well no shit, ever heard of cooking?
Why do people insist on randomly hating what other people eat? The textbook definition of differing tastes between different people than cannot be accounted for? Unless your kid is named Oatmeal and they ate them, maybe mind your own business.
You heartless bastard! Oatmeal was my second-favourite son and that bastard seasoned him with store brand ketchup! STORE BRAND!
I mean, in a pinch you can get away with just butter and salt. Oats taste fine by themselves, it's just really boring after two bites.

Too bad. I would have been very impressed if you were, considering you're posting comments on an Internet forum.
Steel cut oats don't need anything except maybe a little milk. They're delicious, fight me.
Dude, you enjoy plain oat meal. I ain't getting in a fight with someone like that. That's like picking a fight with Popeye because he eats plain spinach.
I love and eat oatmeal every day. More than ones through the day actually, plain
Just oats and water.
If i want something different than nothing beats fruits in this game for me. A good apple sauce is also awesome on oatmeal.
I eat oats just about every single day. The only time I'm not eating oats is around the holidays.
But I definitely don't mind unflavored oats. Normally I eat them savory, but plain oats are fine I suppose.
No matter how much you try to trick us by posting on the internet, we can still tell you're a horse!
It's fine by itself. I mean, it ain't winning any awards for taste, because it's not good but it's not awful either. It just exists. 🤷🏻♂️
I just put a handful of blueberries or cut up strawberries in mine for some stimulation. The main reason for me to have oatmeal is that it is super quick and extremely filling with just a small portion. Efficiency food.
The defense of Oatmeal is that it's insanely good for your health and will help you lose weight if you can shovel unsweetened oatmeal down your pie hole every morning.
I make it with milk instead of water and mix in some sugar and cinnamon. I don’t feel like that’s an excessive amount of condiments lol
Everyone defending blank canvases arw like, "once I add 17 things to it, it looks so good."
That's what op sounds like.
I use stArch BTW
You ever eat plain oatmeal? It's alright, a bit plain but it's got it's distinct subtle flavor and isn't bad.
And here I am, enjoying just plain oats with tap water 🤷♂️
If all you eat is flavoured, over salted, over sweetened, highly processed food, then that's all your tastebuds will find enjoyable.
Hey, not everyone can be a gruel eating peasant /s
It's like saying you like plain white flour, when an reality you like lasagna
Same with Starbucks coffee
Oatmeal can't compare to the natural tasting notes of cinnamon toast crunch
Edit: On a serious note, Oatmeal is kind of like Coffee where you start by getting the ready made instant stuff, get a taste for it, begin to narrow your selection and then create your own perfect formula
I literally eat oatmeal raw and dry like a godamm horse eating out of a trough. Yes I have a problem.
Oatmeal with some cinnamon is great, if you don't have the palate of a child
