ryoder 1,362 #5 March 20, 2013 Quote Apparently not quite over. Complaint is it "tastes different"? How could that be a bad thing?Maybe they will reintroduce "Marmite Classic", to complement "New Marmite"."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

nigel99 138 #15 March 22, 2013 You americans have got no taste! Marmite is good just don't ea.t it out the jar. A THIN layer on toast with cheese is great Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeJD 0 #16 March 22, 2013 I'm a fan, although as Nigel said the trick is to spread it thin. Their ad campaigns over the years have been genius - I can't think of another product that's been marketed on the basis that a lot of people can't stand it. This was my favourite TV ad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzeOPTkod4k Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never tried marmite and from the description, I might try it once. The worst part of the marmite is that it tastes like salt is the principle ingredient. Remove that crap and it might be palatable. It shares the same problem as anchovies."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

mr2mk1g 10 #23 March 22, 2013 Toast and marmite + a large glass of ice cold milk. Breakfast of champions. Plus I fart like a trooper exactly 8 hours post consumption. Could set your watch by it. You don't know what you're missing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
