OATISICK

Not necessarily related to anything, but I bought some Oatibix for my breakfast this week.

I'll not be making that mistake again. Never before has there been such a disparity between 'promised product' and 'product itself'.

"With the goodness of 100% wholegrain oats Oatibix is a delicious, nutritious alternative to wheat-based cereals. So what are you waiting for! Tuck into a bowl of Oatibix today and discover for yourself just how delicious they are."

Hmmm, yes, I did discover how delicious they were. Not delicious at all.

They have the consistency of pulped cardboard and, I would imagine, a roughly similar taste. In fact, it'd probably be more enjoyable to finely chop the box and eat that instead.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the other 22 Oatibixes (Oatibi?). They better be doing me good, that's all I can say.
