    For making weetbix I have boil water and heat some milk in the Microwave. Pour the boiling water over the weetbix then add the warm milk. Add brown sugar and a dash of cream.

    Most of the time I’m to lazy to do all that but it’s the way my mum made them so I sometimes do it if I feel like a treat. I think the hot water is just a way to save on milk but it melts the weetbix which Ive grown to like.

      Hold up, let’s put aside culturally-specific weetbix for a sec (🇦🇺🤝🇳🇿), you mix WATER with your milk but then ADD CREAM???

        Sounds like a seppo thing to do. Probably gets more than one drink from a Milo tin too.

        Am curious though.

            It’s the dust and small wood chips off the floor of a sawmill glued together into little bricks. Traditionally eaten with milk and honey. Cricketers legendarily eat 7 or 8 (sometimes more) for breakfast every day. If you are going to do something requiring strength, one should always have eaten weetbix for breakfast.

          My Milo needs to be eaten with a spoon. The milk is only there for plausible deniability, I may as well be eating it straight out of the tin.
