I bought a big box and think that they're foul! Does anyone have any recipes to use this stuff up and make it edible? I don't like to throw food away........
Mix it with the dogs food ;-)

I agree, it's like eating sawdust and glue. Give 'em to H&S for the dogs ...

It's horrible - I was really disappointed because I like both weetabix and porridge and thought oatibix would be nice too. But it's like wallpaper paste.
If it doesn't make a good addition to a crumble topping give it to the dogs or the birds.

I trialled this before it came out and was apparantly in the minority of people who thought it was disgusting! I'm glad to find out now that I'm normal!!! :)
I like it. I mash up a banana with it. yum
Earl, you are perfectly normal :) I think its some of the most disgusting stuff ever produced. One bowlful and it went never to darken my kitchen cupboards again.
looks like I am the only person in the world who likes it then!!!
I think that you are helensdogz! I just tried a little with banana - still awful to me.....
I was hoping for a flapjack recipe or similar as I'm sure that the oats are good. They just taste dreadful whatever they do to them. :(
Oatibix?................Foul!! :)

I keep eyeing them up at the supermarket, not a big cereal fan, but I was thinking about trying them as I love oaty things.... Won't bother though now :-)

Give them to the birds who someone who has chickens or pigs.
I think it might be coming to that! :(

My 9 year old daughter chose it as I let her choose her cereal when we go to the supermarket, 1 bowlful and she was begging me not to make her eat any more!! My BIL had a bowl and loved it though so I'm hoping he will b visiting again soon!!!
I chose it because oats are supposed to be good to lower cholesterol and I'm not keen on porridge. I thought a bowl of Oatibix with soya milk should be very useful but there's no way I can eat the stuff! :(
Saw this on a website....sorta flapjack-ish....
Not sure how good it will be...
Ingredients
4oz soya or sunflower margarine
1/2 cup sugar
1tbsp golden syrup
2 crushed Weetabix or Oatibix
2 handfuls dessicated coconut
1 cup plain flour
1teasp baking powder
1 tbsp cocoa
Icing: 2oz icing sugar + 1tbsp cocoa + hot water
Handy Hint
They're supposed to represent the cubes of rubbish that Wall-e makes! (My kids fell for it anyway)
Method
Preheat oven to 180 / 350 / gas 4.
Melt marge, sugar and syrup in a bowl in the microwave.
Stir in dry ingredients until thoroughly combined and press into a 8"x6" or 7" square baking tin.

Mix icing ingredients and spread on to biscuit while hot. Leave 5mins then slice into squares and leave to cool.
Oh many thanks. I couldn't find anything at all! :)

Glad to see I am not the only one who thinks Oatibix are foul. I tried them because I get the most horrible indigestion when I eat weetabix and thought they might be kinder to my digestion.
So I am now back to buying Muesli base from the Co-Op and adding fruits and nuts to it that I like, as I am not keen on raisins, so usually I add things like goji berries, or dates and some walnuts or hazelnuts. when my daughter is here she likes to add banana chips too.
