Don't knock the Weetbix, they are the best with milk, banana and strawberries. Dry they are great with butter and vegemite
Love mine with nuts and milk.
Lovely also with butter and jam❤
Agreed! Gotta' wash em' down with something though ! Cold milk?
Yeah I prefer them dry with butter and Vegemite
Definitely. I used to cut them in half and eat them with butter and Vegemite.
I'm a nutritionist. From the cereals on the video, the only cereal that I would eat that is healthy is Weetbix (with honey and fruit).
Undestandable. I eat cereal most days and it's Woolies own brand Weetbix and Woolies own brand meusli. I do also sprinkle some raw sugar over it, admittedly. Very cheap and healthy!
Not even Rice Bubbles? I don't think there's any sugar in those at all. But you'd know better than me.
@utha2665 it could be because it's made with white rice? Weetbix is high in fibre so would be healthier than rice bubbles
Not a nutritionist but same! I've never tried the original Weet-Bix from Australia, only its British version Weetabix. From what I remember, it tastes surprisingly okay, but cereal or breakfast biscuits aren't real food to me.
@@SatieSatieWeet-Bix is a Sanitarium product and Nestle’s Uncle Toby’s brand has Vita Brix which is the same but different.
I can only imagine the UK Weet-a-bix would too be extremely similar.
They should have done US Fruit Loops vs AUS Fruit Loops because they are NOT the same. The Aussie version has all natural colours and flavours.
yeah the girl is so hyped like ppl in usa never seen the brand before
Weetbix tastes really wheaty . It was my favourite as a kid best with banana and brown sugar and milk . The other way was dry with butter and vegemite esp after school. Dry cereal is good because they are basically a sweet crunchy snack .
@@frogmouthnever eat soggy weetbix
@@frogmouth same except for me it was with honey lots of honey!
Fancy eating that shit,Milo is chocolate malt with many vitamins
The US breakfast cereal is probably illegal here
It's not illegal here! 😂 you can get most of them at select lolly shops. The problem with American cereals here is just that Aussies don't like them, they're far too sweet and hold little nutritional value, Aussies take their health a little more seriously (ironic since we have the more affordable health care, but hey! 😂).
There's a Cafe near me that sells American snack food (one corner of the Cafe is devoted to shelves of them) lucky charms cereal was over $12 a box, Takis were around $5 for a small bag, a jar of that fluff marshmallow stuff was over $10. And that was before covid, so I imagine they'd cost waaay more now
@@lashinka2574yes, it is! 😂 The froot loops you get in oz are different to froot loops in the USA because some of the ingredients used ARE illegal. That’s just one example. Google it mate
@@katielattey7545we have the Takis in a Servo here and over $10 a packet 😱 I’m not trying them 🤔
S’mores are definitely not a thing in Australia. Does not sound appetising. Our marshmallows are the best in the world though, and perfect toasted on their own on a stick over a fire.
happy aussie day , WE ARENT biased , we just dont grow up with all that sugar , our taste buds are not used to it , hence STARBUCKS didnt work here
Well technically that didn't work here because we already had coffee places here. That were much better.
Starbucks didn't do their research before coming here because if they had they would have gone.. "Holy crap they all kinds of coffee here not just coffee and milk. This isn't going to work guys!"
😅
@@Kewlausgirl 😂Exactly what i said just more eloquently , it was crap and full of sugar
Starbucks didn't work cause they use the drip style coffee not.the expresso style Aussies like
I wish Ryan would stop calling Milo (or “Meelow” as he calls it) chocolate. It’s not. It’s malt (with some) chocolate.
Yeah I'm sick of his bad aussie lingo. He says hes a aussie fan but continues to butcher our words. No dipshit we dont have captn crunch and all your cancer causing colourings in our food except for pepsi. Our children are given real food for breakie not that sugar shit you shove into your kids. Weet-bix is meant to be eaten with milk and banana and a teaspoon of sugar for 2 weet-bix. How much sugar and toxic food additives are you going to feed your kids. And no aussie gives there kid fruit loops here we know better that's stoner food for when the munchies kick in. We have been taught fiber will stop bowel cancer since the 1980s. Cach up dudes and no we dont do smores ew. Grab a chocolate royal bikkie it tastes what your smores are missing. I spent 3 months of my time in the states and tried all your American food. I bought some home for my teenager and she was shocked at the garbage that was listed in the ingredients. Yes we are taught to know how to read food ingredient lists. Twisslers were the worst thing ive ever put in my mouth. I dont know what is in them other than plastic and oil. Lolies arent meant to leave an oily residue on your hands ew. Look up chocolate crackles too for aussie after school snack. Ahhh takes me back to the 70s when l could go to the shop and buy red freddo frog lollie which is what l thought twisslers would taste like. Nope. I think play dough has a better taste. And not even my teen daughter could finish the lucky charms box so it went in the bin.
He did stop after one gaff.
Most of the sweetness comes from the malt and it is just powdered cocoa without added sugar.
Milo has vitamins and minerals in it, it’s not like Nesquik, which we used to call Quik for decades.
Quik was such a treat to be had when we were kids, it was never a regular item in the pantry, where as Milo was always on the shelf. Cold Milk with two tablespoons of Milo.... yum! Though I did prefer Bournvita when push came to shove.
yeah but milo also has 40.5g of sugar per 100g
Drink it Freddy drink it 🤪
@@Blob_Boy There is a 30% less added sugar version of Milo which I prefer to purchase.
Weet-Bix is the second healthiest cereal right below rolled oats!
We can also eat them with peanut butter or butter and Vegemite! Yum!
You’re so used to sugary breakfasts, that something that’s actually healthy is repulsive to you. We do have a few sugary cereals but apart from having a lot less sugar, they also have complex carbohydrates.
I disagree most cereal is not healthy weet-bix will eventually give you stomach issues and they are as bland as all anything!
also, Nutragrain actually has ridiculous amounts of sugar tried to tell my niece that and she never believed me
@@francesottewill2538 According to nutritionists, Weet-Bix is very healthy because it’s just wheat. I grew up on Vita-Brits, myself, and as an adult, switched to rolled oats.
@@francesottewill2538 You are not supposed to eat ONLY cereal, dude. Too much of ANYTHING is bad for you. That's like saying "Too much water will make you feel bad". Yeah. Yeah, it will kill you. Obviously.
Jeni@@Jeni10 you are correct, reading the weetbix label now (Kiwi weetbix mind, but I'm sure they are not too much different) it states 97% wheat, 3% sugar. 3% sugar is pretty good, thats less sugar than fresh fruit!
Weet-Bix "Australia's favourite breakfast cereal" is made by Sanitarium which is owned by the Seventh Day Adventist Church organisation. They are vegetarians and opened the first health food retail store in 1898.
Also School tuck shops now have strict codes for food on offer. Now to prying them off the screens for better mental health too
Yes very true! Back when I was in school we didn’t use technology lol it was called books😂
I know many do but I have never eaten Weet Bix without sugar sprinkled on top.
@@CalmCate I always had it with fruit, usually a banana, but sometimes whatever else was in season
@@CalmCate I decided never to add sugar to my son's Weet Bix, so he grew up that way and still hates it with sugar. Yes, he eats plenty of other junk, but he lives on Weet Bix, and without sugar. And he's healthy, which is amazing. LOL
Mates weetbix with apple sauce and milk👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Ask your Colon which it likes better, ‘Weet Bix’ or ‘Lucky Charms’.
The rice bubbles should have been compared to rice krispies.... that was a crazy comparison
When my kids were young they had a choice of Corn Flakes, Rice Bubbles or Weet-Bix. (I was a single mum of 4, not much money) One Christmas, my aunty gave my 2 oldest kids a a large box of Coco Pops each. She also gave them other gifts as well, but as soon as my daughters unwrapped them, they tagged them with their name. Christmas and Easter was a time that I let them have all the 'treats' .... chocolate, coke lollies (candy). But, for most of the year we had a sensible diet. It was cheaper. My kids have adopted the same restrictions with their kids. Sugar, salt and fat are good, but not every day.
We used to get Fruit loops only on Christmas and we looked forward to it all year!
Weet-Bix sliced thinly in half, spread with butter and Vegemite is the best way to eat them - especially after a big night out!
Yes always a bit of a gamble. I tried always to slice them horizontally and put honey on and replace to take to school for lunch. Honey soaked in. Very yum. Could never stand them with milk😮
American cereals are just breakfast candy loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients with no real nutritional content at all. While here in Australia we do have some cereals which have a bit more sugar than others, but at least they contain less sugar and artificial ingredients than American cereals and many of them actually contain some nutrients so they're more healthy. American foods are all loaded with sugar and fat, even their bread is more like cake
Exactly, another example of AMERICANS can’t eat food that isn’t drenched in sugars.
Don't forget the corn syrup - yee hawwww
@@adrianmclean9195lol it's not just corn syrup. There's corn sugar, corn everything in food over there. And it's so so so disgusting!! 😂 I don't know how they cope with it
I remember you learning about fairy bread being a children's party treat in Australia. Well there's another equally popular and traditional party food.... Chocolate Crackles!!! Yummy and made with Rice Bubbles as a main ingredient
Option #1 Cookie Crisps has 12g of sugar vs Milo (flavored) flakes has 8.6g sugar (both are corn/wheat-based cereal) per 36g serve.
Option #2 Lucky charms (are more like our Fruit loops) with 220 mg sodium & 12g sugar vs Weet-Bix with 1g sugar 97mg sodium - per 36g serve.
Weet-bix are normally eaten with milk (hot or cold) and often topped with fresh fruit, yoghurt or honey etc (to taste). The biscuit or bar is simply multiple wheat-flakes compressed into rectangle shape. I've never seen these eaten dry.
Option #3 Captain Crunch has 1.5g fat, 240mg sodium & 17g sugar for a 38g serve, vs Fruit Loops has 1.37g fat, 136mg sodium & 14.7g sugar
Option #4 Apple Jacks have 125mg sodium, 12g sugar & 1g fat per 40g serve vs Rice Bubbles with 0.5g fat, 3.3g sugar & 168mg sodium
Option #5 Reese's have 4.5g fat, 210mg sodium & 12g sugar vs Coco Pops (choc flavored rice bubbles) 0.5g fat, 12.6g sugar & 128mg sodium
Option# 6 G Grahams have 1.2g fat, 295gm sodium & 11g sugar (for 38g serve) vs Nutri-grain with 1.1g fat, 133mg sodium & 9g sugar
Otion#7 FTC have 1.5g fat, 180mg sodium & 12g sugar vs Crunchy Nuts have 1.8g fat, 124 mg sodium & 11g sugar
Growing up our breakfast included: toast, crumpets, english muffins, corn flakes, rice bubbles, nutri-grain & on special occasions bacon & eggs.
Nutri-grain was the only thing that we ate (from this list) as a snack - without milk, in place of chips or biscuits (occasionally)
Weetbix is great with hot milk over it and a little sugar honey etc and you can eat it dry with butter and honey or jam. Weetbix choc slice is great as well.
You have to let weetbix soak and get soft. Hot milk is best. With honey AND sugar.
Definitely hot milk and honey!
Never eat soggy weetbix
We don’t make smores! They’re too sweet! A friend sent me all the ingredients for smores and I made them, took one bite, chewed it and spat it out, almost blacked out from the sugar overload! Never again!
Yeah, I think our palates or we have a much less sweet area of our tongues to sugar content flavours?
@@waywardangel6356 It starts in infancy with what mothers feed their toddlers. All those sugary cereals remind Ryan of his childhood, so that tells me a lot. Once you have a sweet palate, you can’t get used to blander foods. Same with excess salt. Bland foods for babies - unsweetened and unsalted - will result in a healthier baby. Then teach them to eat fresh produce by serving it to them at every meal. No McDonald’s, no fast foods, control their sugars, fats and salt.
Plus they’re made with Hershey’s, which is _not_ chocolate. It’s sadness.
😂
My cousins thought Australian food was too sweet; wonder how they would cope with USA diet.
I only have it every now and then, it is very sweet. I do a yoyo biscuit, marshmallow and two pieces of Cadbury chocolate
Lucky charms vs weetbix... lol
Weetbix is one of the only 5 star health cereals, they serve it in hospitals.
putting that against lucky charms is like putting water vs dr pepper
lucky charms would probably be 0 stars if tested.
I argue that point I actually have seen and bought Apple Jacks here in Australia the only reason that Rice Bubbles and Weet Bix are not passing is because they taste better when you add things to them like milk and sugar or fruit etc they are honestly not meant to be eaten plain! We also have Rice Krispy treats but we call them LCM bars another thing we have in Australia is Chocolate Crackles which used to be a common treat when we were kids at parties not so much anymore.
Love chocolate crackles
Happy Australia Day! 💛🇦🇺🎉
HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY
HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Most Australians are not used to chocolate and peanut butter being mixed together, we eat them separately but rarely together. Also although some Australian cereals have sugars in them we tend to use natural flavours without artificial sweeteners like sugar etc.
We don't make Smores. All we do is melt marshmallows over a fire and Rocky Road which is chocolate poured over marshmallow, nuts and candy into a slice.
Or wagon wheel....eat the wagon wheel 😂
Mmmmmmm, Rocklea road.
They are called Rice Bubble because they are made from rice and are hollow inside like a bubble. It seems like that should be obvious.
Americans have absolutely no logic.
Ryan, Milo is malt not chocolate 😊
and it's pronounced MY-low not me-low
Actually, turns out it does have cocoa which is chocolate flavoured, my bad.
Weetbix with butter and vegemite is the food of the gods, fight me!
I have eaten Weet Bix for decades.. in my 20s I had as many as 7 each morning with hot milk and a bit of sugar, stirred it into a Porridge and … Yummy. Now I have cut down to 2 only, still with hot milk. Sometimes I do go back to Corn Flakes just to check that I should stay with weet bix. And.. I go back every time. You won’t change this Weet Bix kids’ habit.😊
I generally have four a morning with cold milk.
I used to be 10 with hot water and milk but in my 30s weetbix started giving me terrible indigestion. Miss my weetbix
@@peterdubois65 No bloody wonder with 10 of them!!
@@twoflyinghats normally after a two hour sunrise kayak
@@peterdubois65 I had to change over to Gluten Free Weet Bix when I was diagnosed as Coeliac some years ago. A bit more expensive ( Double the price) and tastes almost the same. Not sure if it’s available where you are, I’m in Sydney Australia. May help your problem so may be worth trying.By the way, the gluten free weet bix only comes in a 24 box pack.
Most US ceral doesn't meet Australian Standard for food and is considered a confection.
Happy Australia Day Ryan :)
Vegemite cereal! I couldn't think of anything worse and I'm Australian!
I like Weetbix, buttered, with Vegemite. So it might work. But not with milk!
Wheetbix are awesome. We have a jingle that goes. AUSSIE KIDS ARE WHEATBIX KIDS, AUSSIE KIDS ARE WHEAT BIX KIDS. Theres nothing you can use them for. 2 or 3 in a bowl with sugar hot or cold milk and fruit for any time of the day. You can spread butter on them with honey, jam or Vegemite and make amazing baked slices with them or crushed up and used instead of bread crumbs. Yummo
We place our marshmallows on sticks, toast them over an open fire; then we eat them off the stick. Watch Dennis The Menace, he toast them on a stick; and flicks them around, until the marshmallow hits someone's face.
Rice Bubbles are puffed rice, and when you add milk the make a sound as the liquid hits them; Snap, Crackle and Pop. If you melt chocolate then mix with coconut and Rice Bubbles, we call them Chocolate Crackles; if you mix Rice Bubbles with icing sugar, powdered milk coconut and copha, they are called White Crackles.
And if you add dried fruit they are white Christmas.
Weetbix challenge is like Cinnamon challenge, it instantly dries your mouth 😂
less dangerous though
The RIGHT way to have Weet Bix is with WARM ( hot but not boiling) milk with a dollop of brown sugar ( NOT much ) and a banana maybe.
I always put raisins or sultanas with it back when I was still eating cereal. Don't know why I stopped. At some point while at uni, I ended up switching to savoury breakfasts and it's stuck.
Weet Bix eaters eat Weet Bix for life. All the other cereals can get in the bin
HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY YALL, truly another case of Americans can’t enjoy anything without tons of sugar or salts.)
Weet-Bix are flakes of wheat crushed into a bar. They're basically like corn flakes except they're wheat. So yes of course you need milk. In winter you can use hot milk, or use cold milk then microwave the entire meal. Afterwards add sugar (raw sugar is delicious for this rather than white sugar), and chopped banana. YUM!
Weet is are the best cereal ever. They even taste great with hot milk on them in the winter. We used to eat them for a snack with butter and Vegemite on them. I usually put bananas on mine, with cold milk, yummy. I have had plenty of American cereals and they are disgusting, just diabetes in a box. You should try healthy cereals as children and you will grow up to be much healthier too.
6 in the morning before school 6 after try cut in half butter and peanut past
Weet Bix IS healthy, the company that makes it is called Sanatarium is a health and wellbeing company and is owned by the yth day adventist church!You cannot get a more healthy item for your brakfast and it is the biggest seller in this market in both Australia and New Zealand and it is NOT bland at all.
I had Vit-Brits growing up, Weet-Bix had no flavour; you would have it with warm milk for breakfast, and for after school snack buttered and topped with jam, honey or vegemite.
Why would you eat marshmallows for breakfast .. that’s so unhealthy
We refer to nutra grain as nuts and bolts but the shape is supposed to be chain links, all in reference to iron. The lettering is done that size as it's meant to be EPIC.
they are buses with little windows
@inatick5057 the wheels on the bus has fallen off, fallen off, fallen off, the wheels on the bus has fallen off, eary in themorning
The thing with the heathier Australian cereals were that you would add to the cereal base things like fruit or sugar. Weetbix with fruit, like a banana or strawberries etc were delicious, but sugar on top was great as well. Or you could just go plain as well, so it gave more options, the same can be said for Rice Bubbles and Corn Flakes. We are more health conscious here and parents don't their kids climbing the ceiling at 8am either.
Rice Krispies (American) have about 10 grams of sugar per 100 grams. Rice Bubbles (Australian) have about 8.2 grams per 100 grams.
With most Aussie cereals we add sugar in the bowl. On a Winter morning it weet-bix, hot water a little warm milk & honey. Ohh so good but I love porridge too.
I had Australian beer called Great Northern. Ate Lamingtons which is sponge cake covered in chocolate sauce rolled in coconut. Some have raspberry jam in the middle. Had a big burger for lunch.
Yuk you yanks love all the shittest beers.
Milo is Malt flavour. wheat bix with no milk are just dry, not bad
I used to put butter & Vegemite on my weet-bix and eat them. Peanut butter works as well. But a glass of milo is required to wash it down
And feed the little bloke Weetabix he will be a legend just add some banana
I love Weetbix with a sliced banana on it. My kids do, too. In comparison I bought them a box of Lucky Charms from a USA Foods store for a fun thing in the school holidays. They both had it once,m and then refused to have any more, saying it was way too sweet.
Peanut butter with chocolate is a very American thing. None of my family like it.
Peanut butter and honey is one of my favourite toast toppings... though I did have peanut butter and nutella sometimes as a kid.
As a kid I only ever ate OKs. They don’t make them anymore. Now I eat rice bubbles. I’ve never added sugar to cereal
Too hot to bbq 😅
We can get lots of the American cereal. Dry weetbix with butter… yum
Happy Australia Day Ryan. I don’t think the match ups were correct with this one. Thanks for hanging with it though.
fruit loops in Aus is all natural flavours & colourings US is ALL SUGAR
Snap crackle and pop is the advertisement of Rice Bubbles… This is the sound it makes when you add milk. By the way they are an essential ingredient in the recipe for Chocolate Crackles, another kid birthday favourite, at least in the 70’s of my youth.
Weetbix and Vegemite on toast are the most iconic Aussie breakfast foods by a mile…
What’s funny is that both are acquired tastes, that require learning just how you like yours
man. When you said happy Australia day especially to the aboriginals I actually spit my drink out. One of the funniiest things I heard all day and I already had a fun fkn day.
To be clear I am in no way offended. I do have some common sense. Happy STRAYA day Ryan.
Milo is not chocolate
Nutri grain is delicious
We also cut weet bix in half lengthways and spread with butter for a snack. I used to love that after school
The plain cereals are a base. The rice bubbles so you can add your own sugar, but you can add all sorts of things to it and they go Snap, Crackle and Pop. We love that sound. Weet Bix is a base, so you can add all sorts of things to it as well and you can use it for other things other than cereal. Hot or Cold. Weetbix are given to babies as well, its comforting, especially in Winter. Yes already know its unfair. Some people from US get off on who is better and is so competative. A lot of Australian, don't care. We like them because they are ours, and they belong to us. You can have your things, but we like our things.We have different cereals. We also have different tastes. When I was growing up, it was a lot more subtle, very plain food, also sugar and health conscioius. The older generations stick with what they know, the change to more sugar comes from the younger generation and as other people come to Australia they bring all sorts of changes. And no, not all Australians grew up with Milo, we had a choice. There were those that liked Milo, and those that liked Ovalteen, and there were those that also like quik as well as actavite. So when US people do this who is better, a lot of Australians don't care.
Akta-Vite has less sugar and contains more vitamins than Milo. Vita Brits has less sugar than Weet Bix.

Happy Australia Day arvo Ryan , Britney and Jace ! 22:44 It's literally 42 ° Celsius here and it's 6pm. The sun two days ago let go another solar flare and Australia is cooking. Some areas 49° deg. Apparently it's an 11yr cycle event. Phew, not too many out and about today if away from water. Next week the same 🥵 A cyclone in Qld ripping through. Just another summer in Oz 🥴🙆♀️😉
Weet-Bix is bland but extremely healthy. It's wheat compressed into a brick shape that's it. It's what you add, tailor made. Usually hot or cold milk allowing extra for absorption. Then sugar or drizzle honey to your taste, not the companies and fruit if wanted. My partner is addicted to 4 Weet-Bix hot milk, sugar and dry powdered milk on top to make it creamy. Must say it's omg sensational. However for me it's a rarity for obvious reasons 😂
It was common to have a dry Weet-Bix with butter and jam or butter and vegemite for a snack. Arnotts Milk Arrowroot biscuits were treated the same. It was cheap in poorer times and lot's of us grew up on it. Later there was another cracker biscuit, long rectangle shape, very healthy with seeds. You took two, put Vegemite or jam on it then the fun was to squeeze the spread through the tiny holes hahaha ohhh and a slice of cheese added if hungrier lol
Solar flares are insignificant (like 100,000 time less) compared to the normal amount of energy coming from the sun. And the 11 year cycle is a variance of 0.1% in solar activity.
@@jwnomad What page were you supposed to be on when you wrote this? It's irrelevant!
Vita-Weat worms, YES! THE Vegemite swirling through the holes.
@@judithstrachan9399 Omg thanks yes Vita -Wheat. I couldn't remember the name 😋
@@jwnomad I admit when I'm wrong ok I'm willing to accept that and I've learnt something new. I heard about the controversial 2012 event that happened in eastern and central United States. I was under the understanding that solar flares did affect temps. I heard it way before Google was even invented.
Weetbix is absolutely delicious! You have to have three (or even four), with lots of extremely cold full-cream milk, and maybe even some sliced banana. Sometimes a little honey, but gorgeous without, too. Eat it fast enough that it’s still got some crunch. 👌
Weetbix with banana or berries and cold milk or a hint of raw sugar and hot milk in winter is the best.
Eating them dry is hardcore as they NEED milk so you don't choke on the dryness.
We don't eat donuts for breakfast in Australia so the sweet tooth is more a USA thing anyhow.
You nailed it your diabetes comment Ryan.
We have Kellog's junk, but so many kids are raised on weet Bix. My son is in his late forties and he still loves on them. After years of eating other crap and not enough fruit and veg, he is still healthy and has no cholesterol problems. It's 95% whole wheat, so it's amazing for the body. Plenty of other cereals that are almost as good. Feed kids proper food and no junk, and they will always prefer the healthy food. Don't add sugar to stuff or give them sugary creal, and they won't miss it.
My daughter loves weetbix with honey and sultanas, I don't hate them but I only have the occasionally, usually with bananas, sultanas and honey on top. Milo cereals are a fav too, but I did enjoy nutri-grain when I was a kid. Right now my go to cereal is a combo of half rice bubbles, half crunchy nut. And crunchy nut is corn flakes, with a heap of honey and nuts sprinkled on. It's good, but sweet, and i prefer it fairly soggy otherwise its too crunchy.
Weet Bix (Sanitarium) and Vita Brits (Uncle Tobys), nutritiously fortified bricks of weet, add milk and your choice of Fruit, Honey or Sugar. it's full of fibre and will keep you regular.
Rice Bubbles, plain puffed rice cereal, Coco Pops "Just like a Chocolate Milkshake only Crunchy", back in the 80's we had other flavours.
You can’t beat rice bubbles when it comes to making chocolate crackles.
Chocolate crackles?
@@katielattey7545 my mistake.
As a kid I used to eat dry weet-bix spread with butter and vegimite.
10:35 because they’re bubbles….of rice….
Weet-Bix all the way. Every morning I have 2 or 3 with some milk and maybe some fruit, no sugar. It fills you up and comparatively speaking is good for you. americans get awfully defensive of their sickly sweet breakfast cereals.
As an Australian, Ive never heard an aussie say "Put another shrimp on the barbie", excepting Paul Hogan. I think the word shrimp was used instead of prawn to appeal to American sensitivities.
I was in the U.S for 4 months and tried to buy weet bix there because I've eaten them for decades. Couldn't get them anywhere unless I wanted to pay some astronomical price online so I went without. It was murder. The closest I found was a product called weetie Bix made by a Canadian company. Not bad but I have to have my weet Bix. Waiting for my green card and I'll be migrating to the U.S soon, so I'll be shipping an Aussie food hamper with a years supply of WB, vegemite, Milo,Tim Tams and other Aussie delights. Nothing like a little bit of home in the pantry.
GREETINGS from the sunny brown land down under. 40c in sydney today. HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY to you and yours. WE ARE NOT SUGAR JUNKIES
Most of our cereals are healthy. Crunchy Nut Cornflakes are yum coz they have honey on them.
I personally like uncle Toby’s protein plus cereal it’s my favourite the dried apricot and apple is delicious!
I put Milo on Bulla chocolate chip ice cream...just saying...
I have a box of Nurti-grain in my cupboard. I had not tried Fruitloops since I was a child but I had some recently and it felt like I was putting sugar in my mouth.
We have Weetabix or Weetbix as the Aussies call it here in the U.K., I have it daily for breakfast.
I have 4 Weetabix for breakfast every morning with a Pint of milk and a little sprinkle of sugar.
Oh by the way, it’s very hard to eat Weetabix dry because it sticks to the roof of your mouth and drys up your saliva.
So yes it is a challenge to eat Weetabix dry.
Food dies where removed from breakfast cereal about 20 years ago, because the health problems they cause. People are different.
I needed more fibre iin my diet
Started eating Kellogs
allbran wheat flakes, adding chopped nuts, sultanas instead of sugar and some seeds. I really enjoy it.
Milo is in multiple products before they brought out different products other way it was eaten is heaped & mixed into vanilla ice cream,should google chocolate crackle it's made with Coco pops,kids party favourite & make it for a video
Chocolate crackles are not made with coco pops. Its Rice Bubbles , copha, cocoa powder, desiccated coconut and icing sugar. The recipe is on the Rice Bubbles box.
Don't know if anyone has said it, but I would butter a Weet-bix then spread Vegemite on top for a dry breakfast, but wet with milk and a drizzle of honey. Rice bubble were turned into a kid birthday food called rice crackles (like chocolate coated rice bubbles in a fairy cake paper cup.
Also nutrigrain is also very sugary compared to other Australian cereals and it made me sick when I first has it
Weetbix can be eaten as they are if you put butter and vegemite on there. Otherwise hot water to half soften, lots of raw sugar and a little cold milk. Rice bubbles are only good for cooking with chocolate.
There are a few slice recipes that use wheat boxes too
Happy Australia day, mate. I use to crush 4 to 6 Weet-Bix into a large bowl, drown in full-cream milk & top with a tablespoon of raw sugar. Yummy stuff.
I love Nutrigrain. It's one of my favourite cereals.
Same.. not really a fan of anything else
In my teens, When I lived in America, I just loved Pop-Tarts. Like I really loved Pop-Tarts. I just got so fat! I had to stop that before I blew up like that fat man in the Monty Python movie. I lost most of this when I came back to Autralia
Who remembers Strawberry Pops? Strawberry rice bubbles. Yummo. Oh yes...and Jaffa Pops, Coco pops and orange ones. I loved the 70's!
Frosties and honey smacks were the bomb when I was a kid. You can put Milo on anything from bread,toast. cereal and of course drinks, hot and cold, best of all don't know about anyone else i would eat from the tin and yes still do 😂 childhood habits
Full English Breakfast every time. 🙃🙃🦘🦘
Wheetbix with butter and Vegemite . I hate it with milk
I can send you some links for a therapist if you’d like

Froot loops, captain crunch Berry whatever, to me there all child abuse! 😂Most of my 7 grandchildren would prefer porridge ( oatmeal) Winter or Summer. Their Pop eats it every day of the year. Wonderful Australia Day had here, very hot,plenty of activities though for everyone at the beach by the pool, the many parks, have nothing to do, or on your own hop on a train to Sydney from the suburbs $2.50 gets you on the train, also a bus, and you want a ferry ride to Manly or any part of Sydney Harbour it’s all included in the price Gotta love this place Australia 🇦🇺
We make chocolate crackles out of Rice Bubbles
Also date and rice bubble slice yummy
Happy Australia Ryan & family.
5:27 Hot Weet-Bix in winter & cold Weet-Bix (let soak in milk until it soften ups) in summer is the perfect breakfast. But Weet-Bix always needs sugar on top, yum 😋 6:04 Weet- Bix with butter & sugar is also yum but how can it be fair when they didn’t even eat the Weet-Bix properly? 12:31 Again where’s the sugar in the Rice Bubbles? The American cereal all look like they’re full of colouring, there’s nothing natural about them 🤷🏻♀️
I love Weetbix but am eccentric in how I eat them: two Weetbix, mango juice and blueberries or raspberries. Yum.
Crunchy Nut is definitely my favourite cereal... But i had Golden Grahams in canada 20 years ago, if it were in Australia it'd be stiff competition if my memory holds up.
Cereals like weetbix and rice bubbles are never eaten without a ton of sugar on top which takes away all the health benefits anyway.
That was a fun video
No one in our family puts sugar on their Weet Bix. Sometimes we add sliced banana or strawberries or some other soft fruit.
