Sanitarium Health Food Company Weet-bix 1.2 Kilogram

Just like I remembered from growing up in AUstralia ... Package arrived quickly and in good shape ... Product was fresh and crisp ... Will continue to order Weetbix thru this distributor on a regular basis ...

After the Kenyan Weetabix fiasco I started looking around for reasonably priced alternatives, and this somehow came my way. HA! yeah... I had no idea I’d end up liking it even more than Weetabix. And no, I ain’t Aussie or anything. I have absolutely zero sentimental connection to WeetBix or Weetabix I discovered it years ago, tried it, and was hooked almost instantly. It’s just really good. Yes, this comes in this giant 1.2 kg box, and yes, the biscuits are wrapped in a plastic-type bag inside (unsealed). But everything arrives fresh and tastes great, and honestly, that bag is actually very smart and practical than the darn biscuit wrapper bag of weetabix. If you’ve ever watched an 8 year old try to fish biscuits out of a Weetabix box while crumbs go flying everywhere, you’ll understand, everyday crumbocalypse.... Not much of that problem here. Sugar is even lower than Weetabix. It’s a little less malty, which may be the one tradeoff, but I actually prefer the texture. The biscuits are slightly smaller, which makes portion control really easy, and they hold up in milk noticeably better. You have a little more time to actually eat your breakfast before the whole thing turns into mush. So yeah, people, buy this. It’s genuinely excellent and an absolutely fantastic value. I just hope someday they distributed it directly in US. instead of importers.

I’m from Australia and grew up on these. The ingredients are whole wheat and a little sugar (3%). Breakfast cereals here in the States are really lacking in my opinion. Most have way too much sugar; even those that don’t have too many strange ingredients or are hard to find. This Aussie weetbix are great; my kids love them and I do too. Don’t confuse them with the American knockoff which is called weetabix I think. At least give these a try. I only wish I could get them slightly cheaper, maybe by buying in bulk.

I was a little hesitant to buy this product. However, it is delicious! Also, I love the fact that it’s not too sweet. I added some vanilla almond milk and a few strawberries. De-lish!

Recently, the price of the 1.12kg Value Pack (not 1.2kg) has fallen, allowing me to give these a go and make a comparison to Weetabix. After easily sliding a finger under the cardboard top to break a lightly glued flap, I found an unsealed plastic wrap, folded once or twice, containing the biscuits. Considering the distance this box had travelled to arrive at my breakfast table, I wondered if they were still fresh. I put couple in a bowl, added cold milk and a thin dusting of sugar and tucked in. Here's my findings. Yes, still very fresh! The biscuits are smaller and lighter in shade compared to Weetabix and the texture heavier, less fine, and as such did not absorb the milk with as much thirst, remaining firmer and less soggy right down to the last mouthful. The taste to me was not unlike that of Weetabix, just not as malty, not that Weetabix is particularly malty anyway, just less detectable in this cereal. I recommend you give Weet-Bix a try if you love Weetabix but perhaps become a little bored through familiarity and would like to taste a viable alternative. So go ahead and take the "Pepsi Challenge", which like the two beverages is really about preference, or what you fancy at any given moment. Pepsi and Coca-Cola have their own distinct flavor, but both remain very much tasting like cola, so to me it's less about which drink is better. I think that applies with these two cereals as both are comparably tasty, healthy, yet individual enough in flavor to have both in your cupboard. That is, if the price of either makes sense when our domestic cereals seem cheap, by comparison.

This cereal is really good. If you are an American and never had this before, beware it doesn't come out of the box like U.S. cereal. It comes in squares like granola bars. I put maybe 3 or 4 in a bowl, add sliced bananas and drizzle with honey. I add just a little bit of milk. Be prepared to eat it right away because it gets soggy very fast. It gives you a nice meal to start the morning and doesn't load you up with sugars and enough chemicals to make a chemist blush.

My Aussie husband was so happy to recieve this for his 65th bday
