    I love it! On toast with boiled eggs, with cheese in a sandwich, or just by the spoonful.

    Mmmmmmmmmmm - armite!
    The vegetarian option.

      I wouldn't say I love it or hate it to be honest.

      If I fancy some, I'll have it. If not, I won't.

      Bit like a glass of water. I don't love the taste of water, but neither do I hate it. It's just water.

      I don't see what the "love it or hate it" fuss is all about.

      Now, if it was Marmite enriched with Marmoset shavings, then I might have a more tangible reaction to the flavour, since Marmosets are especially flavourful in Autumn.
      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

        Marmite is the Devils Smegma, put in jars and sold to the unsuspecting so that he may spread his evil influence.

        Well I can't think of any other reason for it's existance

          That's because of all the squirrel droppings they've been eating.

            What do you mean unsuspecting? I thought everyone knew that? Not seen the old black and white advert from the sixties where he's using a chisel on his helmet to fill the jar with his evil goodness? It's a classic.

              mmmmmm, marmite!

              LOVE IT!!! especially on toast with melted cheese!!!!!

              I didn't know about the devil association though!!! Maybe that is why I am such a bitch now!

              BTW, why can't I vote on this thing? I know being a newbie means I have to 'pass the test' and have all my posts moderated - like forever?? cause it doesn't tell you how long for..........AND I get no avatar...AND now it seems no voting fun...........talk about trying to get into an exclusive club! I thought I could just tick a few boxes and qualify on being someone who enjoys copious amounts of drink and has a very bad sense of humour. How wrong I was................

                    I'm feeling quite full now. It's all those ham and tomato sandwiches with mustard you, I mean I, keep eating. That's okay though because it is my, I mean your, favourite.

                    Sorry, I just can't keep track of all my IDs today.

                      Well yes, of course, but the young 'uns today have never seen it have they. There's a reason it never gets posted on YouTube you know.

                      These days he's got some decent advertising agencies working for him. Thats why we got Paddington bear instead.
