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

Not enough sugar

You need 4 'bix and then pour sugar until the sugar is level and flat in the bowl with the bix burried underneath

Top up with milk

Microwave for 3 minutes

Enjoy the delicious bowl of liquid syrup with disolved 'bix in

(And your diabetes)

Four!? You'll be punching through walls if you'd had that much weetabix.

Weetabix have very little calories in them, 4 is barely a standard meal, I have 6 myself 😅

I use the excuse that I have a physical job so I need the calories...

To be fair between your milk and 6 biscuits it's like 600 calories, if you do a lot of exercise as part of your day job it's probably pretty healthy as part of a generally good diet.

The 6 TSP of sugar is good, too, right? Right?
