My motherlong before she was my mother (i.e. before I was born, not because she suddenly became my mother in any other way), was away on holiday with her pal somewhere in England.
The landlady of the B&B they were in thought she'd welcome her Scottish guests by making them porridge for their breakfast. My mum and her friend were delighted by this until they tasted it. Because there was sugar in it. And Scots traditionally eat porridge with salt, not sugar.
The landlady was most bemused!
