Borneo Traveller’s Breakfast

03 February 2014

The standard breakfast in backpackers hostels and lodges in Sabah seemed to be toast and eggs. Or just eggs.  Maybe coffee if you were lucky. So, after a couple of weeks, we felt the need for a little more fibre and found this brilliant alternative in the local Queens supermarket…

***drum roll please******

»»»The Cups ‘Hi-fiber Cereal’ sachets««««

These are like coffee sachets, but with high fibre cereal instead of coffee and sugar. Just add hot water. Or even some raw oats if you happen to get these at your hotel like we did (yes, only raw oats, nothing else?). It is great with hot soy milk too!

These sachets are easy to fit into small spaces for packing, only require a cup of hot water and they taste great! It cost about MYR1 each as at Feb 2014.  Check out other posts about Malaysia from Travelinds.

Note: There are a few different brands of this high fiber cereal but we liked ‘The Cups’ one best for flavour and consistency.
