NEW Weet-Bix ™ Protein Is Here!
 NEW Weet-Bix™ Protein is a high protein breakfast cereal, delivering 10g of protein per serve. It's designed to fuel active bodies, powering them with the goodness of whole grain wheat and pea plant-protein.

Whole grains are made up of a fibre-packed bran, nutrient-rich germ, starchy endosperm and an array of phytonutrients. It’s the combination of all these elements that make them a nutrient powerhouse and an important part of a healthy diet. One serve (50g) of Weet-Bix™ Protein contributes 73% of your daily whole grain needs.

Weet-Bix™ Protein is high in fibre, iron and vitamins B1, B2 & B3 for energy. It also tastes great, so it's a delicious way to kick start your day.
