HAMSTER FOOD = Weet-bix. Send it back to the sanitorium.
"Whole Wheat Bisks" in the "International" aisle of Coles = "Weetabix" and due to the exorbitant price has become my weekend treat. |

Yes, well might you sit there drinking coffee. ;) After 5 and a half years of hearing you complaining about the UK, it's my turn now to complain about your country...

Not this one. Weetabix and Weet-Bix are made by two different companies (Weetabix Ltd and Sanitarium respectively).
Weet-Bix is the original product, invented in NSW during the 1920s. Its Australian inventors started a new company for distribution in Britain during the 1930s, where their product was rebadged as "Weetabix". Consequently, both products are Australian in origin. There's not much to choose between them, but Weetabix seem to be smaller and sweeter. |

Clearly, they were thrown out of Australia for creating such an awful breakfast product. When they went to the UK, we made them raise the standard of the product considerably... There's a world of difference. Weetabix is denser, lasts longer and tastes wonderful. http://www.nestle.com.au/NR/rdonlyre...ita_brits2.jpg Vita Brits http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Tobys |

Aptamil back home was made by Nutrcia as was Cow and Gate, therefore, I guess it's Karicare.

Well I had no probs with Cow & Gate, but having tried Karicare, I'm yet to be convinced, I can't get it to dissolve properly at any temperature, and bub has been funny about it too. But it's made by Nutricia, the company which also makes C&G and Aptamil. I've settled on S26 so far. They're all pricey compared to the UK.
