    If it was made with milk, the milk could be bad. Not to sure about the oats themself.

    Definitely! Any food keep in a warm moist environment and was improperly prepared (contaminated with bacteria or viruses) is a happy breding ground for causing illness.

    I know this sounds horribly disgusting but whenever I get sick from eating out I figure the person prepping the food didn't wash their hands after using the bathroom. That usually prevents me from eating something I didn't make.

    E.Coli and H. Pylori are very common bacterias that can be found in foods.
