Oats

/oʊts/ noun

Definition

A cereal grain with edible seeds that are used to make oatmeal, granola, and other foods.

Etymology

From Old English 'āte,' possibly from a Proto-Indo-European root meaning 'food' or 'to eat.' The word is Germanic in origin and related to Old High German 'ata.' Oats were a staple crop in northern Europe and Britain.

Kelly Says

Oats are the ultimate comfort grain with a surprisingly scientific edge: they contain beta-glucans that actively lower cholesterol, making them one of the few foods approved by the FDA for heart health claims. Medieval people didn't know why oats helped, but they knew it worked.
