rad, I have a question for you.....bear (beer, bare?) with me on this one, it is a genuine question.
Went shopping today at several supermarkets in my home town in little NZ to look for All Bran, the best bang for my buck I could find was Kellogs All Bran Original (420 grams for $4.70), all the rest were dearer. On my last stop, I just happened to look over at the Wheat Biscuit Breakfast Cereal shelf (Woolworths Home Brand) and saw that it's main ingredient is wheat (of course) at 97%. I did a quick side-by-side with a box of All Bran and there's not much difference, but a huge difference in price (the Wheat biscuits cost $3.83 per kilo). Needless to say I just about bought the shop out of Wheat Biscuits, so i'll do a side-by-side and you can let me know what extras I may have to add to the mix (if any).
