Bored tonight. You know those days when you drop everything, put gouges in the work you finished sanding yesterday, and end up watching TV with your laptop?

I regret to have to tell you that you might have to entertain the possibility that the marketing guys might just possibly be lying to you.

Cheers

Yup
Thats the stuff. Just had a commercial for it while ago. Seem like you put all kinds of stuff on it. Fruit,yogurt,nuts and anything else you can think of. the biscuits look funny. Maybe its like shredded wheat. Anyway I thought they might be spinning things a mite. Reckon I might try some just to see what ya'all eat.

Just had some Oatabix It looks like Weetabix, and taste like Weetabix, infact I couldn't tell the difference :lol: still nice though :lol:

I remember having my first weetabix back in 1953 can anyone beat that?

When I worked in California a few years back my local Safeway used to sell Weetabix (original name), made in Canada. Tasted just as good as the original (i.e. a step or two above chipboard :lol: - a lot better if you add fruit and stuff)

Slim,

Like the biscuits that are more usually mentioned on this forum these ones need to be kept away from moisture otherwise they swell up. Actually thinking about it they may even taste better spread with a bit of PVA :lol:

Weetabix buttered then a small amount of sugar sprinkled over it Mmmmmmmmmmmmm \/

 

[mailee]

No sorry Lord Nbbo, in 1953 I wasn't even on Rusks!

 

[mrs. sliver]

having run out of bread, just tried it with butter and a bit of sugar, sound awful, but not too bad! 8)

Weetabix - Bleuch! Evil stuff! Roasted sawdust and birdcage sweepings compressed into a loose bar that turns a bowl of milk into a morass of wet sludge in mere moments. Gakk!!

(I'm not a big fan of it)
