Is muesli as good as porridge?

Muesli looks like something you scrape off the bottom of a bird cage...

Whereas porridge looks like something you scrape off the bottom of a bird cage, after the birds have had a bout of diarrohea.

Personal choice....I find that mushrooms don't do anything for my TT skills

Toilet training?

I like both, but normally have porridge before a half decent ride.

I think someone called Potsy did, a few posts back

What about bacon, eggs, black pudding, sausages, fried bread and baked beans?

And porridge. Start with porridge.
If you are going to sweat a lot, season with salt. ( Old army training menu.)

Nuts and raisin I believe have more energy than energy bars so I can see any disadvantage if you prefer Muesli.

But nuts also contain more fat and are none to easy for your system to digest so all in all porridge wins IMO. plus you can always add them to the porridge if one would like to !!!

And if the OP doesn't like porridge it loses for them. Unless at a high level its a personal choice and their performance has got more to do with what they are comfortable with.

Stick the muesli in the microwave and ride to work on a hybrid - muesli in theory but nudging porridgidity. Porridgidity? Porageitude? I give up. Murrage.

Any one tried the muesli from aldi the small boxes thinks it called luxury muesli or some thing comes in three different flavours or types with different fruit. Cheap and very nice

I struggle to understand this. Cooking breaks down the grain and therefore should make it easier to digest, not more difficult (which is what "more filling" is really about). Ditto for soaking.

It depends whether you mean a muesli you have made yourself or a shop bought variety that will have sugar and stuff added.

Depends on the shop. I eat Neals Yard Rich muesli from Holland and Barrett, which is grain, nuts, seeds, fruit and nothing else. It's also cheaper than big-brand supermarket muesli.

Porridge for me too. In fact, after reading this thread, I am thinking of having Porridge for tea now. I really cannot be bothered to peel veg tonight.
