Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
My chief objection to Shreddies vis a vis Shredded Wheat is that the former soak up milk too quickly and can become slop if you're not quick enough. SW maintains its integrity longer.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
A couple months ago, I fucked up and bought the serious hay bales—those jumbos where you can fit two or three in a bowl. (For some reason I thought they changed the box colour. It was a genuine senior moment for me. I'm about ten years away from giving out my credit card number to anyone claiming to be a long-lost relative in trouble.) Given that my food preferences are largely textural rather than flavour, it was a miserable week or so getting thru that.Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019, 8:22amMake sure they don't get away.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019, 7:20amI'm sticking to my mini-hay bales.Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019, 4:17amYou need to eat the Shreddies quicker.

Re: What Are you Eating Right Now?
In Canada, Shreddies are the flat squares; mini-hay bales are bite-size Shredded Wheat. Shreddies also seem kinda glazed.101Walterton wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019, 3:04pmAre we talking Shreddies or Shredded Wheat Bite Size?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019, 7:20amI'm sticking to my mini-hay bales.Marky Dread wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019, 4:17amYou need to eat the Shreddies quicker.
