[quote=Anonymous]I would save a lot, but I'm just too lazy. I grew up on potatoes, eggs and black bread. We also ate a lot of grains like buckwheat and barley. Porridge or black-bread open face sandwiches were for breakfast. Now it's mostly cereal with all that sugar because it's easy. I 'd love to cook oatmeal or barley porridge, but it takes so long and I haven't dared to try barley flour in US yet. I think you all call them hot cereals while we call any grain cooked in milk porridge. Can be semolina, barley, oatmeal and there are bunch of others I don't know how to translate. My latest favorite is buckwheat. It's so good, just with some butter. Can't believe I didn't like it growing up. I also like my split pea soups. Add carrots, bacon or smoked ham and corn and eat it for lunch several days. I'm so tired of all the trash and recyclable I have to take out every day. Here you have a package inside a package and then more packages. I might go back to my childhood Soviet Union days just because of all the waste. [/quote]
