I can confirm not a single oat being found by me nor found in crates, barrels, whatever, neither via hireling, for WEEKS now. I've got plenty of potatoes, garlic, paprika and other stuff that is needed to craft purple recipes. But there are just no tomatoes and no oats in game. This clearly is a loot table issue... one more of those countless litle things that make me think twice about my first sub charge in a couple of weeks. I am strongly tending to unsub.

This convo has been going on already over here - http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/75055/provisioning-oats#latest
Search is your friend. Oats..not so much.
Yea the blue food ingredients are rare.
The purple-only ones like oats and tommatoes are insanely non-existant rare. Unreasonably so.
re:lorail - Looted the whole zone. (Eastmarch/Rift) - you way wanna mention you alliance, as there are differences in food loot tables between them. For me - EP, they simply don't exist in the game.
Though i've looked up the purple meats recipes, and they seem to use salt and pepper, which is common enough. Just gota find a purple meats recipe. (and shouldnt matter since purps are all 3 stats).

However....we've also run out of Oats.
There is a purple recipe that requires Oats. I don't have any. No one in my guild has any. No one in my four trading guilds has any. No one in any of the zones I've been into has any. No crate, bag, sack, chest, barrel or corpse has any.
Please can you edit your drop tables to include Oats? Or change the recipe?!?!?!
I'm hungry.
Thank you.

AD, but I don't understand the complaint, this things are suppose to be very rare, but people want to have a ton to make hundreds of items? That's not what very rare means....

We can confirm that oats and tomatoes are indeed in the game and working as intended. We double checked when we started seeing threads like this, just to be sure.
Here's a little info, to help you:
- Currently, you will never find oats or tomatoes out in the world. This is working as intended.
- Both oats and tomatoes are only available from Provisioner Hireling boxes. They are rare by design.
- They're only available if you have the Provisioner Hireling passive skill to Rank 2 or greater.
