Interesting fact:

Oats might look innocent, but they’ve been a source of contention and banter for centuries between the Scottish and English border. Samuel Johnson's 1755 dictionary defined oats as "A grain, which in England is generally given to horses, but in Scotland appears to support the people." The Scotsman's retort to this was, "That's why England has such good horses, and Scotland has such fine men!” Burrrrrrrrn!
