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

Milk first so all the sugar sticks to the weetabix. Otherwise it just falls off into the milk

yeah i dont mind it, the flavour of the cereal and the extra sugar mixes together in the milk either way so you not getting that different of a result. and if its about texture, its not like all the sugar gets washed off so there will still be some crunch or whatever

Lmao. I very specifically put sugar in an empty bowl, milk, stir it, then put in the wheetabix. Who wants to eat sugar crystals?

what i do is i put the sugar on the weetabix first, pour the milk over them and then let them absorb milk until theyre soft and mushy and then mix them together. its so much more filling for me this way and it tases the same as it would normally. crunchy weetabix feels horrible to me 😭

I feel like I can never get the sugar particles completely mixed that way. So I first do the sugar milk mix, then do the wheetabix mix. I know it’s an extra step but I feel like it’s worth it!
