Ready Brek, ace advert but the cereal was sloppy gloop.

Ready Break was a major disappointment.

I've still got a packet of Ready Brek I've had for flipping ages.

Had one bowl and didn't want the rest.

But am saving it for hard times.

Use it for flap jack type treats!

 

[Blagsta]

Blimey, according to this thread, I've gone up in the world! As a kid we ate Ready Brek and had Golden Syrup in the cupboard (delicious on toast iirc, although it makes me teeth ache just thinking about it these days), but now I eat Jordan's muesli and Yeo Valley organic yoghurt.

YES! Why did I not think of that? I love flapjacks so much.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Golden syrup is a bit middle class imo.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I've still never had any Ready Brek. It's one of those things that I might try for retro value if I saw some for sale and I needed some food, but the chances are quite low.

defo
working class would surely be made with water and salt!

Don't. It's what I imagine Gruel tastes like.

Middle Classness always comes through in the way you raise your kids.

Some Silver Spoon is okay as well. Salt, sugar, carbs, it's what you want - maybe some butter as well.

His middle classness shines through, even if he is northern.

it's true

some prole made good would end up giving their kids some sugar filled crap and they would end up with a kid who can't concentrate at school and back in the working class in 2 generations

Muesli is gross though. It's so sticky and bleurgh. It's like cold porridge.

 

[electrogirl]

Oh and Middle Class porridge has to be done on the hob, not in one of those awful electric ovens.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

It's all right if it's got raisins and sugar in it. Standard Alpen has added sugar - Alpen No Added Sugar is horrible.

that sounds lush!

I don't like the softness of it.

Alpen is factory floor sweepings. No kid would eat it if they were starving.

When Ive been in Switzerland, Ive been presented with a dazzling variety of muselis, and mostly they have been really tasty.

I suppose you need to buy the expensive stuff?

not if you have enough raisins and banana bits in

i'm sure it used to be nicer than it is now

Muesli with sugar is horrible. Do I get extra middle class points?

+1000, extra life. I'm so middle class I shit polenta and I still wouldn't eat muesli without sugar.

Also I used to think the different types of porridge were bollocks, that porridge was porridge, but actually, Ready Brek is pretty fucking rank.

Ready brek is Middle Class Gruel

Porridge, white sugar, hot water....mmmmm

 

[toblerone3]

Grape Nuts are my favourite. I love them when they are just beginning to go soggy.
