Strawberry Weetabix

I have a certain fondness for Weetabix, they are such a tasty and versatile breakfast, packed with goodness and filling fibre to keep you going until lunch. I am a bit boring because I like mine with hot water but I do really enjoy them like this so no judging! When I was younger I enjoyed them with lashings of milk and plenty of sugar, not quite as nutritious but who cares when it tastes that good!

Now, Weetabix have recently brought out a new strawberry variety in aid of Comic Relief and they are actually really nice! They reminded me of strawberry laces, they smelt quite artificial but they tasted really nice, with a good level of sweetness that worked well against the classic flavour of Weetabix. Overall, I really enjoyed these and the only thing that would make them better would be perhaps having little chunks of freeze dried strawberries in it!

Banana Flavoured Weetabix

Bananas and Weetabix, a classic combination for adults and children alike at breakfast time, so what's not to love about banana flavoured Weetabix!? 

Unfortunately there are a few things. Upon opening the pack I was greeted by a lovely banana smell that instantly had my mouth watering in anticipation of tasting these new and interesting Weetabix. The flavour itself is somewhat sickly because of how sweet they are, but thinking back on it that may be my fault for me having three so perhaps that isn't the best reflection. The banana was a little artificial tasting and they actually reminded me of foam banana sweets that you could get in Pick & Mix from Woolworths. The texture was typical of regular Weetabix and had they lovely warming and filling properties that you would expect so I was certainly left feeling satisfied until lunch after eating them.

Overall I would recommend trying them especially if you have a sweet tooth, they make a nice change from my normal plain (but tasty) vanilla overnight oats.
