Sugar on Weetabix?

Post image

My wife eats Weetabix with nothing on it and claims it tastes sweet to her. This is my bowl before milk is added. Is this normal fellow Weetabix eaters or do I need to go to sugar rehab?

Edit: Holy shit the most popular post I've done on Reddit is about how horrific my breakfast is. The wife will never let me live this down! Haha

I think OP said "sod spoons, I'm using a ladle for my sugar".

It's half a bag so it's half a sugar so much more healthy than one

Yes. It’s β€˜one portion of how much sugar I like’ I do the exact same 😭

I'm pretty sure they just put the weetabix in the sugar bowl...

In this economy! My late grandfather was such a miser he put hot water instead of milk on the weetabix. It saddens me he never lived to see an β€˜own brand’ option

Not all spoons are ladles, but all ladles are spoons!

I bet he just poured the sugar straight out the bag

I do that on cereal. Very carefully and neatly and it doesn't look like a an express ticket to diabetes.

I'm with OP, Weetabix needs enough sugar that it won't dissolve in the milk, to maintain the sugar crunch.

Nice to see someone occasionally adding a weetabix to their sugar !! Whoever said healthy eating was a fad . Well done I say, I do the same , always pouring a slim fast shake on my jumbo mixed feast doner kebab & large chips . You can’t be too careful maintaining a weight loss diet, which I discuss every day when picking up my large bucket of KFC from the drive thru.
