1) do you have any shredded wheat to try? 1a) With or without milk? And 2) have you tried eating a ball of twine for comparison purposes? Again, 2a) With or without milk?

I’ve always loved shredded wheat.

shredded wheat actually tastes more like cardboard…

Trout is being brave by joining in with Agnes for the evaluation. We can guarantee that it tastes absolutely nothing like pizza. But like hotdogs, it’s better than starving.

Fire up the kettle and pour a bit of boiling water on your shredded wheat, that will soften it and bring out the flavor.

One needs fuel to get through the morning. Shredded wheat is as good as anything.

Reminds me of a very funny Laurel and Hardy scene in “Saps at Sea”:

Not THAT good but also not too bad,,,,,,

It gets soggy pretty fast.

I never cared for Shredded Wheat, but every few years I used to get the notion that if I tried it again I would like it. Never did. Eventually I learned to ignore the notion.

I wondered what wood mulch would taste like…then I tried shredded wheat!

As if a ball of twine isn’t a tasty snack!!

If you haven’t tasted shredded wheat, then you must have tasted a ball of twine otherwise the comparison has no merit. Either way, both are good roughage.

i love shredded wheat…have it almost every night, with raisins, in half and half, and sweetened with stevia

I also enjoy shredded wheat — and all this chatter about it has put me in the mood to have a small bowl right now!
