Aibu to eat weetabix with sugar?

[KindergartenKop]

DH thinks this is heinous and doesn't require sugar. I think it makes it so delicious (granted not healthy). Aibu?

I sometimes have x2 weetabix with semi for tea, followed straight away by x2 weetabix with blue top/gold top/Jersey milk and sugar for dessert 😆

This is a serious culture issue between Ireland and England. Irish people tends to go without whilst English Like a good spread of sugar.
I'm not sure if this is reconcilable.

I go for a about 3mm with a soggy milk effect, but could be locked up if it becomes public knowledge.

I have golden syrup on mine! I like to drizzle it on before pouring the milk and then watch the milk miss those bits of weetabix!

This is seriously another level. Where's the witabix ...

I suppose it is a bit of a weird food if you think about it. Like if I was given Weetabix for the first time now I probably wouldn't like it. But it's a comfort food from childhood.

Lots of food and drinks are strange really. Like tea with milk. Cheese as well... Fermented cow's milk. Yuck you might think. But I love it!

I love frosted wheats, never have plain wheetabix now, there is no going back!

I want weetabix now. But it’s 2am and there aren’t any in the house.

I do like a sliced banana on top of mine but it is already very sweet so I wouldn't say it needs sugar.

Those putting their weetabix in the microwave, don't they explode all over it? It is rapidly approaching the Great Seasonal Change Over for me when I heat the milk first before adding to my dried fruit covered wheat biscuits. I started off with a few raisins, then added dried apricot and now add aprune and chia seeds. so I'm counting that as my five a day.

Two Weetabix with milk, in an 800W microwave for one minute. Just enough to warm it nicely, with no exploding.

(After all, you don't need to cook it!)

I can't eat weetabix without sugar - I don't eat it very often for this reason!

Don't weetabix already contain sugar as an added ingredient? I'm almost certain they do...

YANBU at all OP - much tastier with sugar and warm milk

Yes, they do.

Ingredients
Wholegrain Wheat (95%), Malted Barley Extract, Sugar, Salt, Niacin, Iron, Riboflavin (B2), Thiamin (B1), Folic Acid

(Malted barley extract is a form of sugar)

I love Weetabix and have it most days, with only one gram of sugar because I'm on a diet. Lots of lovely iron because it's fortified.

Always had sugar or jam on weetabix. Best combo is sugar and raspberries.

Try is with elmlea on top followed by sugar.

Weetabix is horrible mush, but it's certainly less horrible than Elmlea

I have to have something sweet on mine. I usually go for a dash of maple syrup 😋

I know it tastes better with sugar but I also know my teeth weren't great to start with so, my hands are tied

Weetabix is the taste of my childhood and it stands for everything I despise. I would never eat it willingly now whatever was on it.

I used to have it with butter, thickly spread on both sides. Otherwise it’s too dry. Or just a little bit of milk and sugar in microwave so that all the milk is absorbed and can be easily sliced. Must not be mushy!

I put sugar on Shredded Wheat so YANBU 🤷🏼‍♀️

When I could eat weetabix I had it without sugar.

LTB

When I did have Shredded Wheat, it was with hot milk & a light sprinkle of sugar.
