I've bought it in Tesco Extra.

Thank you all for inspiring a pregnancy craving.  I had it for breakfast this morning.  DD loved it.  Thanks all!

I love cream of wheat, I grew up eating it. I have two boxes of it in the pantry now, I brought it back with me. I like to cook it with milk and water, and eat it with lots of butter and brown sugar. What could be bad? I also l like mine lumpy and on the solid side! Yum! I might make some tomorrow after the school run!

The one time I went with SWB, I was surprised at the variety of stuff they had in there!  They even had Jif (or was it Skippy) peanut butter?!  And also, I think, some other American products.  I think it has Thai & Korean as well.
It's definitely worth a try then, plus the bonus of interesting foods with unreadable labels!  (unless of course you can understand Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, etc.)

Also, I was thinking last night that Millie's may actually have it--or Out of this World (the two natural food markets in Leeds city centre), and also even our little health food shop on Town Street may have it!

How does everyone like it? As a kid, I loved it with a bit a milk, a knob of butter, some cinnamon and raisins.  [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

As a child I loved it with a splash of milk, a ton of sugar...and two slices of white toast (from either the Hostess or Dolly Madison outlet) on the side.  Margarine on one slice and margarine and grape jelly on the other.  Mom never bought butter.

This morning I made a small bowl of semolina with a splash of skim milk and a bit of sugar-nice and lumpy.  YUM!!!!!

I like it a bit lumpy too--always have, so looks like we aren't alone.  I made it for breakfast again.  This time DD thought it made a better fingerpaint tool than breakfast, so she's getting a big hungry for lunch now at an earlier time than usual and I have a real mess to clean up.
