Too much marmite

edited June 2011 in Chit chat
I put too much Marmite on my toast tonight and it didn't taste nice at all.

Still ate it all though!

    ive never had it.

    i like the adverts so it makes me want to buy some. but it says in the adverts that you will either love it or hate it. so it will just seem a massive waste of money if i buy it and hate it.

    i have toast and two boiled eggs last night, yummers!!!

    Marmite is amazing stuff. It looks like poo, but tastes amazing with mature cheese on toast. I think if you eat too much in one session, you will start hallucinating. Give it a go. I think I ate a whole pot in a day once. I was fucked.

    Make sure you have a few gallons of water on hand though - the stuff dries your soul up. Its magical shit if you ask me.

    that really hasn't sold me on the idea.

    what's in it?

    Yeast extract apparently. It tastes like nothing else, so you cant really compare it. Its just a strong, spicy kinda taste. I recon they put smack in it and BigBadMick is a slave to it...

    Marmite:

    The basic raw material used in the manufacture of MARMITE is spent brewer's yeast, a substance whose original and only use was to ferment sugars into alcohol. For many years this by-product of the brewing process was seen as a nuisance rather than potentially valuable food source. However in 1680, a Dutch scientist, Leouwenhoek, examined this yeast under a microscope and saw that it was composed of tiny spherical and ovoid cells. The French scientist, Louis Pasteur, realised that these cells were in fact living plants. Further investigation by a German chemist, Leibig, found that this yeast could be made into a concentrated food product, which resembled extract of meat in appearance, smell and colour, however was vegetarian.

    Doesnt sound great, but its well worth a go if you like the taste of meat / spicy stuff / condiments etc

    Ah, the forums are hitting an all-time low, and in my thread too.

    I feel so proud! :)

    If you wanna start the slide into Marmite addiction, try the crisps. They are quite nice.

    My girlfriends relationship with marmite is kinda the opposite. More like bum sex. She tried it once, and found it unpleasant. Now any mention of it and she feels sick... Still, she gave it a go. Good on her.

    Aww man...Since living over here theres not much I miss , but Marmite is TOP of the list !! I would mud wrestle a 400lb pissed off Silverback , then shag his horney sister to get my hands on a Jar :D

    Argies dont have Marmite, Gravy, Chicken Tika Massala , or Blu Tak. It's just plain wrong !!! :)

    Pasteur was wrong, yeast are single celled fungi, and hence neither plant nor animal. Marmite is great, fortunately I can buy it in the supermarket over here in India. Wife hates it, daughter and mother-in-law love it.

    Post 1000! Wahoooo!

    I kinda like Henderson's Relish, but you can only buy that in or around Sheffield. Like Marmite, it has a distinctive taste like nothing else. Oh well, if I want a bottle, at least I only ahve to jump a traion - poor ol Sard, you've a long way to go for your Marmite!

    They have no gravey and yet have one of the best footie teams in the world? Something ain't right
    Oh bugger!<br>

    i can send stuff for free through the post at work, if someone wants to send me the cash for the actual jar.

    Heheh Its a nice thought guys... although if the success of other posted items sent here is anything to go by , then I would suspect (at best) that an Argentinian postal offical or customs officer would pretty quickly be having themselves a Marmite moment in their tea break. :)

    Great footballers sure.. best footballing kleptomaniacs on the planet in fact :D

    will take the marmite out of the jar and put in in a non descript jar. i dont think they would be brave enough to eat it.

    The Argies wont know what Marmite is anyhow... so we could just re-label the container as industrial strength lubricant....

    At least if the argie postal folkes do try to use it (on their cars, postal equaipment..e.t.c)... they will be in for a bit of a smelly shock.
