Is it normal that oatmeal gives me massive fecal explosions?

I try to eat oatmeal for breakfast before work to be healthy. I usually just eat plain quaker oats from the canister. I sometimes add a bit of sugar and cinnamon, or raisens instead of sugar. I sometimes don't sweeten it at all.

About an hour after eating it I almost always have to run to the bathroom and have an explosion of loose stool. Is it normal? How can I eat healthy if this happens?

    You may be allergic to oats..try cheerio's and see if you can tolerate them or perhaps some cream of wheat...

    Hot food or drinks can often cause this. It doesn't mean they're not healthy, though.
