I typically do not endorse “What I Eat in a Day” videos or content. I’m certain that the vast majority of the people consuming it have disordered eating and are watching to compare, copy, or covet. And I don’t want to contribute to that. However. I have been wanting to share an example of what …
OKAY, SO. When I found out that the latest and greatest TikTok recipe trend was baked oats, I was a little… well, if I’m honest, peeved. I mean… I’ve been making baked oats for years.
