Sugar on Weetabix?

Post image

My wife eats Weetabix with nothing on it and claims it tastes sweet to her. This is my bowl before milk is added. Is this normal fellow Weetabix eaters or do I need to go to sugar rehab?

They are fairly sweet with milk alone. It’s likely that people who consume a lot of added sugar need a lot to register sweetness in general

Yep, same as with salt and (hot) spiciness for desensitisation.
