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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
