    5 Stars Simple and Satisfying Cereal! Review with images 25/11/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Variable, delicious, suits all

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    It can be hard to find a breakfast cereal that is suited to the whole family, which can cause great problems for the morning meal! Though, with close inspection, Weetabix seems to tick all the right boxes… *****Brief History***** It was two South Africans who introduced the Weetabix products to us in the UK all those years ago in 1932! From then, not only have we as a nation enjoyed the glorious brand, but it had also marketed throughout the US and Canada too, and is now available in over eighty countries worldwide! And they do not only provide us with one type of cereal, but offer a wide ... more

    5 Stars He's had his Weetabix! Review with images 07/09/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A good and healthyb low fat alternative.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages can taste bland on their own.

    Weetabix Original I am going to review regular Weetabix as the review title suggests, although the lead picture shows the organic variety. Weetabix is a cereal that I have eaten more as an adult than as a child. This is probably due to the appeal health-wise to an adult and the apparent lack of anything but a dull dry brick for a child. As a teenager I remember the adverts that Weetabix put in place as a promotional kick, we all remember the ‘He’s had his Weetabix’ slogan from them. I’m in my mid-forties; I’m actually forty-five next month and have had a torrid time health-wise over the last ... more

    4 Stars Wake up With Weetabix............. 13/09/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Tasty and filling start to the day.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages if you like it sweet you need sugar.

    I have eating Weetabix as my breakfast cereal for years, longer than I car to remember. They are not only very filling but also full of good nutrition. These were never all that appealing as a child and they had to be soaked in sugar and milk, for them to have a nice taste. Now I am older I can now eat them without sugar and they taste just fine. PACKAGING & CEREALS When you first see the weetabix cereals they look very bland and un interesting. They are brown in colour and consists or lots of little packed oaty bits. All of the oats and goodness are packed together in to a shape that looks ... more

    5 Stars The winner is...Weetabix! 05/06/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Delicious yet healthy, widely available

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Bloating, addictive taste, not the most appealing to children

    Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! How many times have we heard that. Alot. In my household espescially, breakfast is made a great deal out of, and not one of us are allowed to leave the house without breakfast. At the present moment, I am on a weight gain diet, and so my breakfast is always huge. I have the "pleasure" of tucking into a bowl of cereal, 2 bits of toast (or a croissant), and a banana. I normally opt for branflakes as I find they are not as filling as other cereals and although I always feel extremely full and bloated after breakfast, it isn't as bad as some such as ... more

    4 Stars Good with everything 12/03/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good for you, filling

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    On first seeing Weetabix you could easily be forgiven for thinking it boring, and I suppose if you are simply going on appearance you'd probably be correct. It hasn't got that shiny bright look of something like Crunchy Nut Cornflakes, it doesn't look anywhere near as edible. In fact on first looks it does seem to have a lot going for it at all. The box looks the most exciting part of the product being a bright yellow thing almost a foot high a 9 inches wide. Huge letters spell out the word WEETABIX and thats about as good as it gets from an observers point of view. Just goes to show you how ... more

    5 Stars The old ones are the best 28/08/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A versatile, healthy , inexpensive breakfast cereal

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None at all

    WEETABIX "Eat your breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day!" We have all heard that said I am sure, and it really is true!! Imagine that you're a car. After a long night of sleeping, your fuel tank is empty. I'm from the old school who has always made sure that my family have a decent breakfast before going out for the day and Weetabix has always been one of my family's favourite cereals (and at the grand old age of 57 I used to eat them as a child too) What are Weetabix? I'm sure that everyone would recognise a Weetabix biscuit. Weetabix is a whole grain wheat breakfast cereal ... more

    4 Stars Sloppy, soggy & tasteless, and I still buy this? 29/05/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A very good source of fibre, low fat, low sugar with added vitamins and minerals

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Virtually tasteless and melts very quickly in the milk.

    Weetabix Cereal ****************** I used to steer well clear of Weetabix, I used to think they were bland, boring and best kept on the supermarket shelf. But now, everytime I need to shop for cereal, surprise, surprise I reach for this. What are they? **************** Unlike most cereals you can't just pour out the Weetabix (though they now make the mini bite versions so it makes sense with those) - these have been made up into small biscuit 'parcels' and you can just take a couple out to place in the bowl and serve with milk. How do they taste? ******************** Very bland is the answer ... more

    5 Stars Weetabix...WOW:) Review with images 20/05/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Amazing cereal..Really healthy..very versatile

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can'r get enough of it;)

    I have to say that weetabix really top the ransk for my breakfast cereal. For me, i think they're great on their own but if you try some of these delicious serving suggestions you can vary your breakfast and still get that amazing wholegrain, low GI healthiness. Weetabix, honey, natural yoghurt. Simple, quick and relatively plain. Two weetabix biscuits covered in natural yoghurt, with a generous blob of sticky honey. With this you get the pro-biotics from the natural yoghurt [I would recommend yeo valley], the whole grain from the weetabix and important enzymes from the honey which aid ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages versatile.good for your bowels!High fibre low fat.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages May make you hop to the loo if over eaten!Allergy to wheat?

    The ciao team have excelled themselves-they have added my new product cat.request so here it is. Weetabix. Like the Marmite ads,you either Love it or hate it. And best of all-it's very good for you. The wonderful thing about this low fat high fibre cereal is it 'aint just for babies. No really! If you suffer from constipation/irratable bowel and or a host of other bowel challenges-you wont go wrong with this. There are so many advantages in these biscuit shaped babies and I enjoy this hot in the winter to warm me up and get me going for the day-or eaten fresh with chilled milk/lightly ... more

    3 Stars They may look like cardboard but they don't taste like cardboard! 03/11/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Healthy, filling and wholegrain.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A little boring.

    Weetabix are the only cereal that my children will eat, this isn't a bad thing but I sometimes wonder if they get bored of these as they not only have them for breakfast but also for supper. I have brought many different cereals including the mini weetabix but they tend to prefer the normal weetabix. **The Packaging** Weetabix come in a bright golden coloured cardboard box wih eyecatching blue writing across the middle with the word weetabix. At the bottom of the box it tells you that they are low in fat, low in sugar, high in fibre and that they are wholegrain. On the side of the box it gives ... more
