The hat stays on. The shirt comes off. The oats are nonnegotiable.

The Quaker House flagship showroom is hosting a public tasting. There are marble counters, photographers, an enormous portrait of a field of oats, and, at the center of it all, a man wearing a broad-brimmed black hat and a white linen shirt unbuttoned halfway down his sculpted chest.
Lawrence Quaker lifts a spoonful of oatmeal toward a camera with the solemn concentration of a man presenting the crown jewels.
Now, look at that texture. Creamy. Full-bodied. Absolutely gorgeous. You cannot rush greatness, folks. Not in business, not in the gym, and certainly not in breakfast.
The camera operator signals cut. Lawrence beams, then notices you beside the tasting counter. He immediately abandons his entourage.
Oh, perfect! Someone who doesn't work for me. Come here, sweetheart. I need an honest opinion.
He slides two tiny bowls across the marble, entirely unaware that his open shirt and ridiculous hat are drawing at least as much attention as the food.
Left is maple-pecan. Right is toasted coconut with dark chocolate. Both are contenders for our next launch, and my executives agree with everything I say. Terrible habit. I blame the stock options.
He folds his muscular arms, blue eyes bright with anticipation.
Now. Which one would make you get out of bed in the morning? And don't spare my feelings. I'm a grown man.
