Sanitarium Weet-Bix Original

Rubbish. Yes, we have experienced the same decline across the range. First the original turned to mush. We swapped to multi grain. Same experience. Now that is less dense, fewer ingredients. Bye Sanitarium. Were walking away for good. Show details

Sanitarium, your customers are dropping off in the thousands. First you discontinue Weetbix Hi-Bran and now you have discontinued Organic Weetbix. You say that you care about and listen to customers. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. May your actions now see the expansion of healthier and organic breakfast options.

I Love Weetbix. Til Death Do Us Part, ha ha – I've Been Eating Weetbix Since 1987 & I Can Tell You This. They Are Still My Favourite Breakfast. I Love Weetbix. And BTW The Weetbix Slippers Are A Grade 10 Star To Go With Your Awesome A Grade 10 Star Weetbix. Mind Blown At The Quality Of The Slippers. Where Can I Buy More. And Bring Back The Weetbix Tins. Lol. Love You Weetbix Until Death Do Us Part Show reply

Great as breakfast or snack – Weetbix is high in fibre and iron so it's a healthy option as both breakfast and snack. However, this tastes bland but that's because it's mostly wheat (although there is some sugar in there but definitely not as much compared to other breakfast cereals).

A healthy food – I like eating healthy and I eat a bowl of weetbix with milk and bluberries for breakfast. But my only worry is, I think I am not absorbing the iron in weetbix because of the milk and berries. Any better options?

Sanitarium has changed something in the Weet Bix recipe. This has happened some time back. Now taste terrible, smells of chemical and taste of chemical. I was getting sick in the gut for no apparent reason but by accident finished off a packet of other company breakfast food and back to healthy so stuck with it but thought I would try Weet Bix… Read more

again and same problem. My advice to customer because Sanitarium are in denial, is to NOT by any Sanitarium product. Tell your friends any body else who will listen to do the same. Sanitarium need to be open and honest about the fact that they have created a problem and fix it

Corporate greed – What have you's done? Obviously you are now cutting corners for more profits. Product just Falls apart now , like some cheap filler is being used & doesn't taste good.

Wheat flakes – Wheat box an Australian icon has changed it something in how they make it. Now they crumble and fall apart before you can get them out of the box. Should be called wheat flakes. Show details

without a doubt, this is my partners favourite breakfast and a very simple one! All you need to do is add milk and optional sugar for a filling meal. Sometimes I add summer fruit ontop for a tangy twist. You can't get more aussie than a bowl of Weet Bix! Show details

Weat Bix not the same anymore – I have been eating weatbix everyday for the last 50years and I am so disappointed with the texture now. They flake and fall apart even before you take them out of the packet. Horrible to eat and they don’t soak up the milk anymore. I used to have them as a snack with butter and jam spread on them but it is impossible to do that now. Shame on… Read more

Sanitarium for changing the receipe. I will no longer be buying these and nor will many of my friends who are complaining about the same thing.

Disintegrating weetbix – A crumbled mess at the bottom of the containers and broken Weetbix throughout. Because of this I have now resorted to buying Woolworths own brand. Very disappointing after buying Weetbix for over 50 years for my husband children and now grandchildren. The quality now has led me to no longer being a Sanitarium customer. Show details

Dissapointing – Lying to your customers will not improve your sales Sanitarium. People like myself who have been eating Weet Bix for decades clearly notice the lack of integrity in your current product. If you have not changed the formula then why are so many turning away from your product? I'm done with a company that refuses to be open and honest with it's customers. Show details

Weet-Bits more like it – All previous comments are spot on. I’m lucky to pull one out of the box which hasn’t already fallen apart. In fact, when I open it each morning I can literally see them falling apart right in front of my eyes. However, the flavour still seems to be there so I guess that’s something. Show details

Falling Apart! – I used to look forward to my Weet-bix and honey in the morning. Recently I have found it to be so crumbly and falling apart as soon as I take it out of the box. We are a family of 4 and we have all noticed we need to eat an extra one since it has changed. I am fed up of paying for air, so we are going to try Aldi's own brand! Show details

Weet-Crumbs – Extremely disappointed. We're in our 70s and used to eat Weet Bix like biscuits with butter and honey, not any more, it's a battle to get them out of the packet in one piece. We're changing to Aldi, as are many of your customers. Your solution is.....more product, more compression. It wasn't broken why try to "fix" it? Show details

WEET BIX FALLING APART – I am 64 have been eating original weetbix for at least 50 years, for the company to say nothing has changed is bollocks. The last 6 -12 months the structure of the product has deteriated considerably, at first I put it down to rough transporting but it is consistent the bricks fall apart add milk and they get worse. At the bottom of the box there… Read more

is a crumbled mess enough to feed a large dog.

Just BULL by the company to say nothing has changed. I can't say I have noticed any tast difference. I suspect if each brick is not compressed as much less goes into each brick making it not as stable and enables it to fall apart, and as a bonus they get less product has to go into a box and that just makes for more profit. This is just my thoughts.

Poor quality control – Agree with prior comments. I have been eating Weetbix for 70years now & the last 6/12 months the quality has fallen drastically. They fall apart, are dry, sometimes only 1/2 a biscuit in space of one. All in all very poor quality control evident. They should be ashamed. Show details

Dry, crumbly biscuits – Sanitarium have said that nothing has changed with their Weet-bix. I believe that to be wrong. We have eaten Weet-bix for over 30 years and in the last 12 months there has definitely been a change; not the flavour so much, but the biscuit itself. It is dry and crumbly and breaks up even before you get it to your bowl. After sending in a comment to… Read more

Sanitarium, they said that they heven't changed anything and sent me a $20 voucher for Coles or Woolworths. I truly believe someone is doing something wrong. FIX IT PLEASE Sanitarium.

Great product, just be mindful of advertisements in developing countries – I have noticed the packaging in Fiji has all the sevens rugby players and how much weet bix they have eaten. With all due respect, most of these players probably never ate weet bix growing up and most of them even don’t eat it today. Jerry Tuwai once said in his interview that he came from a squat settlement and didn’t have basic necessities of… Read more

life. I understand it is advertisement but there might be a lot of young children loading up on weet bix with the dream that they will become great rugby players by eating this product. There are kids who can’t afford this product in Fiji. As stated on the box “The dream of pulling the white jersey.”

Demeaning advertising – Such a good product with such a poor television advert that demeans a young boy with its condescending presentation relative to the supposed superstar girl. Sexism cuts both ways. Show details

Something is not right – The past couple boxes have been crumby even with a good expiry date but I’m starting to notice my weetbix is a bit tasteless, I only have it with milk no sugar no yoghurt. I’ve been eating weetbix since I was a toddler I’m going on 40. I think I’d know something was wrong the recipe.

Why Not Consistent In Quality ? – Hello Sir, We as a family have never thought of any other breakfast other than Weetbix for the past 30 years. But lately I have found the Weetbix not baked or cooked to the right temperature for achieving the brown appearance, taste and crispness. Definitely in the production the settings are adjusted oftenly and there is no consistency. Weetbix… Read more

has been close to our heart and would like to remain for years to come. Hence requesting for a stricter check of quality. Just for you to get the feel - Try Aldi brand and your Weetbix resembled that, with less cooking or baking.

Pay some tax – I actually don't mind the product as food however, I'm continually sceptical of companies getting around tax law via the religious organisation route. Maybe the profits go back to the community? I work for a company that does huge things for the community - we still pay our taxes.

I’ll not be buying them again..!!! – Ok. Got through one packet. Just, pretty hard as taste was not right. Bought another box and same taste and texture. Therefore I’ll not waste my hard earned money on inferior rubbish. It’s really amazing when suppliers/manufacturers of a product that has always had a large following of faithful consumers decide to put the dollar before their… Read more

hard earned reputation thereby jeopardising their businesses and the security of their employees. It seems to be if your on a good thing —- change it…SAD. Garry
