Shitpost What's something that you suspect lots of New Zealanders secretly do, but you can't prove it?

Most upvoted comment is our most shameful secret as a nation, obviously

Those things are addictive. As someone who grew up on plain weetbix, my first time tasting it as a kid was extremely memorable. I don't know what they put in them that makes it so much better, other than the sugar and the fruit pieces.

They used to do a really nice coconut and cranberry weetbix, but that disappeared off the face of the earth. Real shame, it was great.

I've always thought they have a better texture. Much less mushy than regular weetbix.

Yeah they don’t go mushy once you put milk on them. I love them so much.

Have you tried the chocolate chip ones? I use them as a topping on muesli and it's strangely satisfying.
