Everyone mocked Weetabix for this baked beans ‘twist’ but the NHS nailed it best
Lots of people like Weetabix and lots of people like baked beans (stick with us, please).
But it turns out – and you might not be overly surprised by this – that not quite so many people like Weetabix with baked beans.
We only mention this after the good people of Weetabix suggested on Twitter that you might like to try doing this and, well, just look at it.
