    A healthier alternative to Weet-Bix.

    There was a product called Lite-Bix in the health food aisles that not enough people bought so the supermarkets took them off their selves. Sanitarium have now re-branded it as Weet-Bix Lite and put it in the cereal aisles (I assume next to the Weet-Bix). It has NO added sugar and NO added salt. It is 100% wheat. It is more expensive than Weet-Bix and you can't buy it in big packs like Weet-Bix, but it is a healthier alternative. At the moment you will only be able to get it from Woolworths and some IGA stores.

    I haven't seen it in my local stores yet but I'm hoping it'll be in stock soon.

    Weet-Bix Lite is also healthier than Weet-Bix Kids, which has added sugar and salt.

    "Kids" products are usually a crock anyway.... like "kids" yoghurt... more sugar than adult yoghurt!!! Thanks for posting, we're looking to get something with less salt for DS but he loves his weetbix.

    Thanks for the tip! I was wondering what the 'Lite Bix' was the last time I was in Woollies.
