Poisoning kosher food, or Halal food, might be considered a 'hate crime' (against Jews, and Muslims, respectively).

And certainly, poisoning haggis (no one but a Scotsman would ever touch haggis) would be hate crime against Scots.

But oatmeal is not associated with any particular race, ethnicity, creed, religion, nor nationality. Or sexual orientation either.

Oatmeal is not associated with Quakers.

Quaker Oats Oatmeal is.
