They're marketed as "Weetbix" in Australasia and "Sunnybisk" in South Africa.

I discovered Weetbix on a trip to Australia in 2000. Unable to find it in the UK, I found out through a friend that it was marketed in South Africa under the name Sunnybisk, so I got a friend who visited there regularly to bring me some back. Then in 2005 I noticed that my local corner shop stocked it, but then discontinued it a few months later.

I then managed to get some from a couple of friends visiting Australia; far from ideal, but my only option. Last year I found that the Australia shop in London stocked it, but it cost five times as much as normal and that shop closed down soon after anyway.

In May this year I was amazed to see Sunnybisk on sale at a local Aldi in London, but again it was discontinued and none of the other Aldis I visited had even heard of it.

I've just returned from a month in Malaysia and the Tesco there had Weetbix, so I brought a pack home.

Does anyone know where I can buy this cereal from, that, in my opinion, is far superior to Weet-a-bix ? It's been very frustrating that I've been unable to find a consistent supply in 13 years ! ! !
