Every person I know absolutely hates it and thinks the smell is vile.

I adore it and always have though its got to be made with hot milk not cold + sugar mmm

I am really gaging for some right now or some Ready-Brek I love that just as much.

    Hot milk & honey, mixing it up so it becomes a porridgey-sludge..

    The breakfast during my childhood winters. Loved it.

    Don't buy weetabix now as an adult - I find them rather expensive (and I at 4 at once), but if I'm on holiday & they're an option on the breakfast table - yes please!

    Hot sounds awful. What? Hot? Why would you do that?

    Now that I have that out of my system... yes, I eat 2 most mornings. Never noticed them having a "smell" at all and certainly not a "vile" one.

    I like it but with cold milk and a half teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on the top.
    It keeps its shape that way, though is nicely soft too.

    I'd have thought hot milk would turn it into a kind of warm sludge.

    I hate Weetabix as a cereal but the Weetabix loaf is very nice.

    Just had to goggle that do you mean Weetabix Loaf Cake? I have not heard of this recipe before so might give it a try.

    I haven't had Weetabix for years but as a child I loved it hot or cold and I even remember eating it dry with butter on top :cool:

    Hot milk with sugar on the Weetabix is the only way!

    I eat Shredded Wheat with hot milk and sugar too.

    Yes (I use the supermarket own brand one) but I'm strange in that I like it with cold milk and have to let the weetabix drink the milk.

    Never had it, it's not something I'm keen on trying if I'm honest.

    My all time favourite snack is dry weetabix with butter and honey on top.

    There's a 1 minute window between pouring on the milk and the 'bix' becoming overly saturated and mushy when they're at their best. Soft, but still holding their shape.

    Ice cold milk, no sugar & maybe some sliced banana. Also nice to eat dry with just butter spred on top.

    I like Weetabix, although I had Asda's version of it for breakfast this morning, called Wheat Bisks. Very nice they were too.

    I don't think liking it with cold milk is a strange option. All breakfast cereals are eaten with cold milk.

    I do but only with hot milk, no sugar and a splash of orange juice.

    Strange I'll grant you. Must be a hangover from my childhood.

    Weetabix with hot milk for me.
    I even like hot milk on rice crispies.

    I love Weetabix. Always have two with cold milk, virtually every morning. I buy Aldi's version as it's just as nice (if not nicer) and you get more for your money.

    I sometimes buy chocolate Weetabix as a treat. ^_^

    Yes it's like a tea loaf, it's very nice and very easy to make.

    Cold milk and eat it quick before it turns to mush! I like it with a bit of texture remaining. I buy the supermarkets own brands.

    Only with a minimum of milk to try and keep the biscuits crisp.

    yea, i love it too, and have it for breakfast ..hot milk, no sugar though

    My brother as a child had it warmed up in a bowl ( it was in the late 70's with a hole in bowl and poured hot water in it to keep it warm, like a hot wwater bottle :D), i loved the smell feeding him :D
