Weetabix recently made a bizarre food suggestion: eating Heinz baked beans on top of its cereal.

The brand shared a photo of the unusual dish online, causing a debate among internet users if it would be tasty or horrible.

“Why should bread have all the fun, when there’s Weetabix? Serving up @HeinzBeanz on bix for breakfast with a twist,” it captioned the photo. The picture showed two Weetabix cereal smothered with a generous offering of baked beans.

The tweet has caused quite a stir online, with many calling it a “crime” against food. Other brands such as Lidl, NHS, and even the West Yorkshire Police to weigh in on the tweet.

“Babe are u ok? You’ve hardly touched your Weetabix and beans,” Lidl joked. “That tweet should come with a health warning,” NHS tweeted while West Yorkshire Police said, “Even though this is criminal, please don’t ring us to report it.”

Weetabix, however, isn’t affected by any criticism. It said, “Sometimes the people we like don’t like us back, and there’s nothing you can do about it. No hard feelings.”

Check out some funny responses below.
