The Marmite Debate

[R84achey]

Simple question for the Brits and anyone else who's got their hands on Marmite: love it or hate it?

I love it, personally.

I love it! Straight off the spoon or a nice thin sliver over a hot buttered crumpet! Nom nom nom ?

I used to eat it by the spoon when I was younger, and wound up stripping all my tastebuds every. Single. Time! It was worth it, though!

Can’t see I’ve experience the stripping of the tastebuds... I’d say you had a serious issue with marmite ?

Full, heaping spoons of it and a very sensitive tongue!

Hmmmm maybe that’s why I have a sensitive tongue then ... the poor bugger can’t even cope with beans ? (goes to bin the marmite before having one last spoon)

Can we add Nutella to the survey?

No because the mite group of foods are yeast spreads, whereas Nutella is a nut spread.

And nutmite just sounds like a disease...

Well, they did it along with peanut butter. Lol

 

[Colin_T]

peanut butter is a legume spread, not a nut spread

I'm still mad about that, actually. What's the point in calling it a peanut if it's not a nut!?

 

[Barry Tetra]

peanut if it's not a nut!?

Peanut is not a nut?!

My life is a lie!

 

[Udanghantu]

Marmite is the work of the devil!!
Peanut butter and marmalade sandwiches are pretty good, though.....

My southern friends tell me that the proper name for peanuts is goober peas. It makes as much sense as anything.

Lol. That was actually back in the Civil War days.
