Have a look in the BiLO supermarkets in the International Food area.

That's where I have seen it before. The package may not be the same, but it has a Union Flag on it.

Thanks for the info. We've found a BiLO supermarket in the area, but they don't stock them in their store anymore. We're going to Brisbane at the weekend so we will look for a BiLO there. :)

Hi
We've been in Cairns 8 months, been to every SUPERMARKET available to us, which are also around many other parts of Australia, and not found the English style WEETABIX in any of them! Such a shame as were one of our favourite cereals :rolleyes:

The aussie alternatives are well, cant really put it into words :eek: :scared:

Actually, think I will open a shop selling UK cereals - took us ages to find any alternatives that we liked!

All part of the 'learning' process when first arriving in Australia. Funny how you get used to the way things taste isn't it? When we first arrived couldn't tolerate any of their 'sausages' now we even eat them at local 'sausage sizzles' - cant believe it!

So, good luck in your search! Could be wasted time though - sorry :)
