It's my belief that weet-bix have lost much of their structural integrity in the time since I was a kid, and that the savings achieved by cutting corners in this manner have been funnelled into Sanitarium's secret weapons program

Went to the new-ish banh mi local for lunch and grilled the owner on when they're going to start serving pho (it's on the menu, but currently covered up). A few minutes later while eating my banh mi I heard someone else in line having the exact same conversation. The pho-likers are restless.
