Wheatabix
Hi there, I love my bix but was wondering what could I use instead of milk? (not yogurt either)
Can you make a cake or anything with them? Can you bulk out any other food with them? Ideas please x

Trying to think outside the box and sure there must be something else you can use it for rather than adding milk or powdered milk or yogurt? Weetabix swells so must be able to bulk out some sort of food,bread,soup etc?

I been making my own bars for years, although not Weetabix and yes easy to do use bit of water as a fluid, add the nut and whatever you like, I like to add olive oil to my bars.

olive oil is a great thing to add to food for survival since its got such a high calorific density Smile

My bars are almonds, walnuts, raisins, honey, olive oil, vitamin powder, sesame seeds, porridge oats, and water, sometimes I use apricots instead of raisins, or even other or both, and sometimes I add lidl muesli as it is better than the other supermarkets stocks.

RE: Wheatabix
well you can use crisps to start fires because of their fat and carbohydrate content Smile

and a quick google search for "weetabix fire" throws up more than a few news results for fires at the weetabix factory, due to buildup of cereal dust xD

ill go outside in a bit and try and use a firesteel to burn one....although im not sure why you'd want to! weetabix tastes too nice Big Grin
