I have always eaten hot cereal (oatmeal, Wheatena, Cream of Wheat, etc.) with butter, salt, and pepper, making it a savory dish instead of a sweet one. I would think a powder like Calvin's, Uncle Steve's, or Jim Campbell's, would work in that context better than a hot sauce. And you could leave the butter out, or use a lighter substitute. Or try miso. Alex Alexandra Soltow pamra@rockland.net <*><*><*><*><*><*> Practice safe eating -- always use condiments.
