I think he means weetabix.
Sorry Pommy, we convicts rejected both British rule and breakfast cereal-type food names. Either that or weetabix just sounds ridiculous in a typical Aussie accent.

Funnily enough I think I've seen weetabix once or twice in stores, but it went the way of Mighty-mite, marmite and those cheap shit Milo knock-offs that can't hope to compete down under.
Could not agree more

I don't even know how the thread title could be misread as something dirty. I assumed some kind of list was forthcoming, with people having to check off what they've done from that list. Of course, the list could have been anything.

In terms of the actual question, they're called Weetabix over here, and I don't like them. So, none for breakfast. Toast or cereal for me thank you very much.
First of all, Weet-Bix is a cereal.
And second, you would only get the pun if you were Australian.
'How many do you do' is the Weet-Bix slogan and is sought of famous over here.

I suppose they're technically a cereal. I never really considered them to be a cereal though, they're too big.

Also, if that's the slogan then why would anyone's mind be in the gutter? Either they'd know the slogan and know what it referred to, or they wouldn't and would just be curious, like I was.

This will prove who is actually Australian, although you could've been just a bit more descriptive OP. I hate them, personally, but seeing as I have to eat them I drown them in brown sugar until they are no longer healthy =).

GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE GUTTER!
How many Weet-Bix do you eat on your average morning.
Apologies. As an Earth-bound human, I lack the requisite knowledge of Weet-Bix to answer your question.

When I'm stoned, I can eat 9 of these things. Otherwise, I don't have any for breakfast, I'd rather not have anything stuck to my teeth at the start of the day. Also, crushed up Weet-Bix makes an awesome topping to bake with your apple crumble.

Any Aussie who doesn't isn't a true Aussie.
What if you're allergic to them?
I've always hated them.
I was referring to the saying "How many do you do?"
It is everywhere. TV, radio, bus stops etc...

Also popular in NZ, three is plenty, like muesli (granola) less is more. Heated milk and brown sugar is usual, but any number of variations possible. Should never be eaten on it's own.

0. What the fuck is a weet-bix? Also, nice misleading thread title, and low-content post. That's reportable.
'A misleading thread title', please explain in what way it's misleading. The title refers to an advertising campaign which isn't just transcontinental, but has even crossed both hemispheres. In what way is the OP reportable?

OT: None! Breakfast for me is normally coffee & fruit juice, though occasionally a fried English breakfast of bacon, sausage, soft-boiled duck egg, mushrooms, black pudding, grilled tomato, kidneys, toast, & laver bread or other edible seaweed when available.

I'm more of an 'accidentally grab a pack of wine-gums instead of a cereal-bar in my mad dash on the way out the door so I don't miss the bus' kind of guy, and I haven't had weetAbix in years.

Nope it's an Australian/British thing.

It's a breakfast cereal.

WeetBix in Australia and Weetabix here in the UK.

OT...

I have 3 with a loooot of sugar on and drowned in milk.

2-4, depending on hunger. I used to mash it up, then add milk and heat it so that it would taste a bit like porridge, and sometimes I would even get some sultanas up in there as well. However in todays fast paced world I usually just have it cold with milk.
