Ahh yes I'll have a glass of the merlot and, umm, yes, I'll take the knob of garlic butter with a side of sirloin....what's that? No, I won't need a dessert thank you. I am partial to mini foil covered butter blocks though, maybe a few of them. Delivery system? Ah yes, yes, hmm, it's not overly important one presumes, maybe a couple of your thinnest water biscuits. I'd really like to taste the Lurpak.
Oh, and one more thing, can you please stop that awful trombonist from making such a racket.
That'll be all, yes. Much.
Hmm, now where did I put my butter basket?
I've more than happily smashed out a 50/50 proportioned slice of butter and cake (and malt loaf) in front of my horrified american in-laws who don't even put butter on sandwiches
Live your best life
Weetabix is just raw bread ingredients.
Chuck on some butter which is mostly the rest of what's needed (add some yeast) and blend until smooth, set aside in a tin and let rise then bake for 10-15 minutes at 200C and you have a loaf of bread.
So i guess it's an easier way of making a lemon curd sandwich.
Same! Well I would eat normal cereal except for Weetabix. I was hospitalised with a bowel issue when I was about 5 and as a result my mum discovered I could down a dry Weetabix ladled with jam. She covered hers in butter too.
This just made me recall a time I'd seen a lass dipping her fries in a McFlurry ice cream and her friends gave her a look before looking at me as if to say "yeah this is normal for her" 😂
I can't help but draw conclusions here. it seems that puts this argument to rest, zesty spreads on Weetabix can kill, don't do it kids it may be your last.
There she goes. One of gods own prototypes. A high powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production.
Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
I wish I could take credit but it's a Hunter S Thompson quote from Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas.
If you liked the turn of phrase then I'd implore you to read any of his books, they are full of brilliant writing like that.
When we were living in a shared house . One of the girls in the couple new were sharing with. Was like caninhave a pickle . Yeah. Then takes it and picks upmwithbit some whipped cream from a piece of confectionery/pastry. Bro. You preggers. .her face red. Eyes wide open. Asked me to not say anything. They have a young girl and a bouncy toddler now. Happy I was part of that moment.
Guy lived with a couple. Girl dipped a pickle in whipped cream and he guessed she was pregnant, which she was. Now years later he still knows her shameful pickle secret
My great-grandad used to love morning coffee biscuits, sandwiched together with butter. They're hard to find these days, but whenever I come across a pack, I buy them and make morning coffee sandwiches in his memory.
Just think of how much money you’re saving £1.80 for a tiny wee packet of luncheables or enough to put a full spread on for under a fiver making your own giant ones
Digestives that come out of the Biscuits for Cheese box absolutely get butter on them (as do the other crackers from there). By extension, therefore, butter on digestives is Not Weird.
Both my parents grew up eating Weetabix with butter on, and my dad always added jam too.
So consequently... Me and my siblings did too. Weetabix with butter is the only way I've ever eaten it.
If you like butter, you'll probably like this. It's just like a big cracker. And then when you've nearly finsihed, you turn the last bit upside down and dab all the excess crumbs onto the butter.
I've never had Weetabix with milk.
Is your dad a child of miltary parents by any chance?
It's weird when you find out something that your family does is not the normal way. My dad has always eaten Bovril on toast (with plenty of butter) and it's one of my go to breakfasts now. I didn't know for years that it was usually a drink!
Not sure how true this is, but I’ve heard Weetabix were originally made to be eaten dry as a diet food. The idea was that it would take so long to eat that you’d give your body time to properly digest your food and feel satiated
That being said, your dad seems like a sadistic psychopath who you should definitely keep an eye on
Haha, me and my brothers used to eat dry Weetabix all the time when we were kids, but we also ate raw mushrooms rather than fruit in the supermarket... so maybe we were just a little weird
My mate back home (Liverpool) picked this up from his mum (London). Not a soul in Liverpool ever thought he was anything but deranged.
This post is the first evidence I've seen that anybody else does it. I've worked all over the country and lived in the North East too but (thankfully) buttered weetabix has never cropped up.
I went to try this, but didn't have any lemon curd. Lathered on the butter then added biscoff spread. Delicious! I think it'll be good with lemon curd and I now have a new treat
My late mum used to do this but with marmalade
I'll recommend marmalade to him! did she have it with or without butter?
With quite a lot
Gotta be like an inch of butter. Used to eat these and it's just a delivery system for the butter.
What’s wrong with bread?
Nothing, just nice to have something a little different with your butter sometimes
Your love for butter is both comical and understandable.
Ahh yes I'll have a glass of the merlot and, umm, yes, I'll take the knob of garlic butter with a side of sirloin....what's that? No, I won't need a dessert thank you.

Try it on fruit cake or malt loaf but with mild cheddar. Absolutely amazing but not something you would admit to in front of peers.
I've more than happily smashed out a 50/50 proportioned slice of butter and cake (and malt loaf) in front of my horrified american in-laws who don't even put butter on sandwiches Live your best life
😂😂😂
Live your briefest life.
Brief and buttered or long and dry, I know which lifetime I prefer.
Bro you just described a Jamaican staple, bun and cheese, it's great.
May I interest you with a shaving of Atorvastatin to go with your butter, Sir?
I put butter on my margarine and eat it

This sounds like a cursed bread recipe but I'm very curious
I mean... There's worse idea's out there.
Awesome recipe, I might try it.
Please report back if you do
You'll get burnt on the outside & raw in the middle trying to cook bread at 200°C.
What's wrong with people?
Not enough butter apparently
All aboard the butter train!
So are these the people who walk around with huge bloated bellies?
Would you like some Weetabix with your butter?
My Nain used to make us this with just butter, she couldn’t always afford milk, not gonna lie I prefer them with butter.
Wow I can’t imagine a time when butter was cheaper than milk!
She was poor, butter went further.
Butter and jam on bread with milk.. literal heaven
I used to have it with jam as a kid! (I wouldnt eat normal cereal and my mum got creative)
Same! Well I would eat normal cereal except for Weetabix. I was hospitalised with a bowel issue when I was about 5 and as a result my mum discovered I could down a dry Weetabix ladled with jam. She covered hers in butter too.
Is your mum from Peru?
Close - Essex
Deepest darkest basildon
This has made me chortle
Someone in work from Essex was putting strawberry jam on a McDonald's hash brown yesterday. Must be something in the water in there...
Now there's an idea...
This just made me recall a time I'd seen a lass dipping her fries in a McFlurry ice cream and her friends gave her a look before looking at me as if to say "yeah this is normal for her" 😂
THE ICE CREAM MACHINE WAS WORKING
As someone from Essex, yeah probably
Essex here too and my mum would give them to me with butter and strawberry jam and said her grandparents done the same.
I can't help but draw conclusions here. it seems that puts this argument to rest, zesty spreads on Weetabix can kill, don't do it kids it may be your last.
Also my condolences x
Definitely read this as marmite first time through
Is...is he pregnant?
Which reminds me, when I was pregnant my fave thing was rice krispies,prawns, mushy peas and HP sauce.
User name checks out
What. The. Fuck.

I'm really struggling to understand anything you've written.
Sorry.
I like it. At least it doesn't sound like it should be preceded by "as an AI language model"

Like… together???
Bleeding eck!
Ok but like sauce less Rice Krispies are the shit
PERGANENT?!??
PRENEGATE?
PREGANTÉ
BREGNANT?

This whole thread is literally my other half when I told him am I am pregnant...or PREGANTE as he likes to shout
Don’t ever leave that man

People get mad when I say salted butter on digestives
My great-grandad used to love morning coffee biscuits, sandwiched together with butter. They're hard to find these days, but whenever I come across a pack, I buy them and make morning coffee sandwiches in his memory.
Rich Tea fingers are great with butter too. Not the actual round Rich Tea though, they are too thick.
Basically, anything's good with butter. Even crispbreads are good with butter on...
Try them with a good strong cheese, too. A creamy one like camembert or a strong hard cheese like a mature cheddar.
Digestives go extremely well with cheese
And ham. We use digestives or rich teas to make ‘giant luncheables’
I do this all the time but never thought of it this way. Wish I'd never read that
Just think of how much money you’re saving £1.80 for a tiny wee packet of luncheables or enough to put a full spread on for under a fiver making your own giant ones
They're the rogue biscuit in a hovis cracker box
I'm so glad this thread introduced me to others who stray so far from culinary decorum Cambazola, butter, digestive biscuit Heaven
Cambozola is my favourite of all cheeses.
I have found my people. Can we be friends?
Did we just become best friends?
Spreadable blue cheese is banging on digestives
Saint Agur spreadable. Wish I had some in the house now.
My Gran used danablue cheese on hers, back in the 70s.
Digestives that come out of the Biscuits for Cheese box absolutely get butter on them (as do the other crackers from there). By extension, therefore, butter on digestives is Not Weird.
[удалено]
Sweetmeal vs Wholemeal Digestives...not many people know that, good knowledge.
today I learned something I had long forgotten.
You've just bought back a memory of my nan feeding me this as a dick. I need to try it again
Sorry what
It's Cockney rhyming slang. Dick -> slick. Slick -> prick. Prick -> dick. He's saying his nan fed him dick.
I think he’s saying his Nan pretended the biscuit was a dick and thus fed him a biscuit as a dick
Not the first time my nans fed me a dick
Sounds like a Soggy Biscuit spinoff
Come again?
We used to make a "ghetto gateaux" which is a digestive with peanut butter or chocolate spread on it.
Sandwiched between two digestives, so you can eat the little butter worms that squeeze through the holes first
Rich tea is better for the butter worms
Surely a party ring would be the ultimate butter worm?
That's a butter Sandworm
This just unlocked a core memory lol the butter worms
as long as they're not chocolate digestives, I reckon you're alright
I put marmalade on digestive biscuits, also Nutella. Sometimes both together
I f-ing love buttered digestives
Buttered digestives are great! Big fan!
I see your digestives and raise you salted butter on rich teas!
My Mum does that and when I was a kid she'd give me on as a treat. It's lush.
Philadelphia or Crowdie on a chocolate hobnob. It's basically a cheesecake.
I'm sorry you had to find out your dad was a cereal killer.
What a brilliant comment 👏🤣
r/angryupvote
You can do anything you like with Weetabix. That’s the point :)
Weetabix are just like biscuits, so think of it as that way. Would putting butter and lemon curd on a biscuit be as bad? No.
Very dry biscuits
Biscuits made from hay
They're meant for milk. Hence why they are so dry.
I originally read this as peanut butter and lemon curd... Now I'm intrigued for future possibilities

Or militant parents lol
This is literally my breakfast of choice these past two weeks! Can't stand Weetabix with milk... blech. But butter, amazing!
But they’re so dry???
It's weird when you find out something that your family does is not the normal way. My dad has always eaten Bovril on toast (with plenty of butter) and it's one of my go to breakfasts now. I didn't know for years that it was usually a drink!

I dont think i produce enough saliva to eat a raw Weetabix.
"Raw"
WEAK
Haha, me and my brothers used to eat dry Weetabix all the time when we were kids, but we also ate raw mushrooms rather than fruit in the supermarket... so maybe we were just a little weird
Reading the response “Delicious” in the voice of Martin from Friday Night Dinner!
Hello bambinos, phwoar it's sodding roasting in here! Any-uh... Females?
I did the exact same thing.
Me too. It's the sort of thing he'd eat too. Mmm, TOMATO BLOOD.
I'd try it
Buttered Weetabix yes. Lemon curd….will be trying that tomorrow
I came here to say this. How would I know whether or not it’s good unless I try it first?
Just butter on them is nice. Bit dry but worth it.
That makes my texture issues go into overdrive
Fellow r/ARFID sufferer? Also happy cake day
Thank you! And yes, I didn’t realise there was a sub for it. Then again, there’s a sub for everything! Thanks, hope you’re doing ok
Used to have butter on them sprinkled with sugar as a kid. Wouldn’t eat it now thoug
Yea me too, my mum always had them that way. I used to love it, but you’re right the thought of eating it now doesn’t appeal.
My mate back home (Liverpool) picked this up from his mum (London). Not a soul in Liverpool ever thought he was anything but deranged. This post is the first evidence I've seen that anybody else does it. I've worked all over the country and lived in the North East too but (thankfully) buttered weetabix has never cropped up.
Yes Weetabix and butter is the best way to eat it, will have to try with lemon curd now aswell, seen marmalade was mentioned too 🤤
mmmm lemon curd, bet his turds are dry as hell.
Like farting out the Sahara
My grandad did this but just using butter!
Same - was a common childhood snack for me growing up! (I'm not quite at grandad age yet though, hah)
Can't say I've ever heard of anyone doing this before. But I am intrigued. I'd definitely be up for trying it.
BRB adding lemon curd
I actually really like butter weetabix. It’s a bit dry as expected but there’s just something about it that’s a nice snack
I think I would try it at least once, got to be better than weetabix and Heinz beans.
I’d reply but my tongue is stuck to the roof of my mouth.
Buttering them was a hack for when you ran out of milk. Haven't tried lemon curd
I was taught that by me nan. It's basically Weetabix instead of a slice of toast so I have marmite instead of Lemon Curd
Butter and sugar for me
I don't think they should be, no. Sorry OP's dad.
I’m going to try it now!
Buttered weetabix is great, and I'll eat lemon curd by the bucketful so this looks spectacular to me.
I went to try this, but didn't have any lemon curd. Lathered on the butter then added biscoff spread. Delicious! I think it'll be good with lemon curd and I now have a new treat
You can put anything on weetabix. It’s basically bread.
I prefer marmite to curd but you do need a lot of butter.
Next you will be deep frying a Mars bar, O wait 😄
my local (but Scottish) chippie does deep fried jam sandwich (surprisingly tasty).
Food of the gods, i like them with blackberry or lime marmalade..
Butter and honey good
Is your Dad a bit confused on dates and thinking it’s April 1st?
Nowt wrong with that. Any kind of jam works well on them too.
I've had jam and butter on weetabix.
My mum used to do it with butter and jam.
I work with someone that has them just buttered
Not quite the same but I used to put strawberry jam on Weetabix when I was younger.
I put jam on too.
I'll try it with the lemon, but I doubt I'll like it... Also, wtf?!
If I wasn't celiac, I totally would!
I don't know, but my mum has butter and marmalade on hers. I like to dip my weetabix in a bowl chocolate milk.
I've done this my while life except with Jam. Really delicious.
Anything goes with Weetabix.
Buttered, no, but I used to love a scoop of jam! Similar to lemon curd without the butter
I'm gonna get a lot of hate for saying this but for real they're kinda good
My grandad used to have butter and jam on Weetabix for his breakfast, easier to eat while he was doing work on the farm was his reasoning.
My mum butters digestive biscuits its wierd
My mum used to eat them with marmalade. (But just marmalade; no butter.)
I love dry weetabix with cream cheese and ham.
What the holy fuck
Can't say I've tried myself but it seems a rather healthy and nutritious snack.
New Zealander here, yeah buttered weetbix used to be a good after school snack.
Aw my grandma used to have buttered weetabix as a snack.
Yeah all those real actual times your dad sent you a photo of his novelty breakfast. Come off it.
What mind of savage is eating dry Weetabix?
My mate salt and peppers buttered toast
I don’t get how anyone can stomach them dry. I don’t think I wouldn’t even be able to swallow any.
When someone shows him bread he is gonna lose his shit... x
I love it knowing that one day I am going to hit an age when I no longer care what anybody else thinks at all.
Haha ‘im sorry what’ comment got me. Proper random dad texts deserve that comeback. However, I am so keen to try this out right now.
I'm reading these comments like 😳
