But ice cold lemonade and oatmeal raisin or chocolate chip cookies will be fine.

I quickly told her my reasoning before I was wearing my oatmeal!!!!

A lot of travelers drive in and arrive late, unpack and work the next day so I try to think of it like "if I arrived in the evening and I want to cook up some pasta real quick for dinner or make some oatmeal for breakfast what are the basics I'd need?"

We want them to have coffee/tea, dairy and non-dairy creamer, some fruit and instant oatmeal so they can grab a quick meal in case they don't have time to hit the grocery store.

But here is the real bug in the oatmeal. 

Do I really want to read a review regarding how they would prefer oatmeal cookies over the chocolate chip cookies that I left out?

Now, I think it is time for my oatmeal, gotta stay regular.

I wouldn't eat Ramen Noodles due to health concerns but certainly get the context and am happy to live off of oatmeal...

I have paid debts while living on oatmeal for months at a time, because repayment was more important than what I had or did not have to eat.You picked the wrong guy to try and "guilt" into your way of thinking because I have been there and pulled myself out without help.

You could also add a small microwave and mini fridge which allows leftovers and oatmeal packets and cold drinks and to heat up muffins if you have butter packets.
