It's my breakfast choice this morning. Cold milk and sugar and eating it while there are still hard bits, or doing hot milk and sugar so it's porridge like. I like both ways, but I'm saying the hot milk mix is the more likely to bring on a wind effect.

Weetabix is one of those foods that seemed to taste much better when I was a child.

weetabix is very boring breakfast and also has a high glycemix index rating and because its baked, its not very healthy. I recommend muesli.

Weetabix with cold milk is ok. The smell of Weetabix with hot milk on them turn my stomach though. I used to work in an office with a woman who had Weetabix and hot milk every day for her lunch, honestly I could not walk into the kitchen after wards.

It could be the milk making you windy, not the cereal.

I don't know why, but whenever I eat Weetabix, I feel more faint and shaky an hour later, than if I'd skipped breakfast. Can anyone explain that?

I haven't eaten weetabix for about 20 years. I did have a craving for it a couple of weeks ago with cold milk and banana but I didn't act on it as I didn't think it would taste the same as I remember

It's my favourite cereal with a couple of spoonfuls of all bran, banana and some raisins.

I love weetabix obviously
.....you cant beat it with some warm milk and a handful of grapes. The recommendation of muesli instead of weetabix is crazy as it usually has a very high sugar content and therefore quite unhealthy and fattening. A healthier option would be to have porridge, which I did have for a long time but I prefered the taste of weetabix.

Whay has OM gone inactive? I can't imagine her hurting a fly (unless it landed in one of her lasagnes).

And I take all cereals with soy milk, so it's not the milk. |

I really like weetabix but it gives me horrific heart burn. It is the most heartburn inflicting food I can eat. I know its not the milk as I did a lot of milk.

I use to love Weetabix when I was a kid. I use to have two at a time, about a one spoon sugar, milk, and then the microwave. All nice and soft, nice and sweet. I remember when I stayed away at a relative, and she served me some... with cold milk
It did not taste nice, it was so hard, and hard to eat. A knife would of been bloody better then a spoon! Soft, gooey and sweet for me.

Weetabix does make a great snack, doesn't it?
![]() On the odd occasion I have Weetabix, I like 2-4 bisks with lots of oat milk and a teaspoon of sugar. The result is a sweet gooey mess, but it's absolutely delicious. The Aldi Harvest Morn brand is just as good, and cheaper too. |

Like it cold with a sprinkling of chopped roasted hazelnuts, a sprinkle of sugar and some single cream.
Heated it up - it stank and tasted horrible. Makes you go |

Years before I was so health conscious and switched to semi-skimmed milk, I used to like Weetabix with gold top/Jersey milk, no sugar. I had Weetabix a couple of years back and it tasted mushier and not as crispy as I remembered it.

I can only eat weetabix if I crush it up first in my hands, then add some sugar and then cold milk, but I have to eat it before it gets all soggy! Have done that since I was teeny weeny
