Is there anything better to eat on a cold winter’s morning than a hot bowl of oatmeal? This hearty, stick-to-your-ribs dish has been a favorite for centuries, as it is delicious and can be easily customized with a vast assortment of toppings. Coloradans get it, which is why we host the world’s largest oatmeal festival, which comes complete with the world’s largest topping bar:
