We always use the word porridge...what do you use?
I have always pronounced almond (much to my mother's chagrin) as
or(l)munds
"Or(l)munds" {whew} I find that somewhat convoluted. But
what do I know?
Porridge; We have different cereals, different grains.
Oatmeal, made from oats, Cream of Wheat, wheat.
In the South they have what they call "grits", which I
cannot abide. They put various things on it, like pepper
and butter. All of these might qualify as porridge, as
I understand the term. There is also Farina, of which
I don't know what it is made without looking it up.
So.....what is the content of UK porridge?
