After being at the ace meeting tonight the subject of marmite can about!! odd eh??

After the advert on TV, i wondered how many like it and, how many hate it!! naturally

So simple really

Why do you hate/llike it???

Fletch,
Can you add 'Marmite is EVIL' as a choice in the poll so that I can vote.... please.

Why you not at the meet tonight Hiyabeing??? I can't believe YOU would miss a forum gathering.

And I'll second that motion to have a 'Marmite is EVIL' option!

However, fletch NOT being a mod I feel he'll not be able to change the poll now!:thumbsup:

I've never tried it, but I like Twiglets.

why eye man DB i canny change poll like man (sorry watching Auf wiedersane pet)


no i cant change the poll will ask nomme to see wht he can do!!

thts one for the feedback thread can we have permission to change our polls and add a new option, like we can edit our posts!!

I like Marmite.

My option isn't in there so I'll put it here.

I can take it or leave it.........tick!

The option 'Fletch has too much time on his hands' isn't available so I aint voting either.

I've been told that marmite is good for cooking - suitable for wide variety of dishes. Never had it yet tho - maybe one of those 'things to do b4 u die...'

Marmite is fab but does not compare to the almighty Vegemite...:thumbsup:

Looks like poo...
smells like poo...
tastes like poo...
Hey this is poo...!

I think Marmite is nasty horrible VILE creation and should be stopped...is nasty salty tar in jars...

Nasty

cool site 4 u mosh : http://www.ihatemarmite.co.uk/

Marmite recently had its centenary and the guardian site http://www.guardian.co.uk/netnotes/article/0,6729,748622,00.html list oodles of useless facts including feeding marmite to dogs - i wonder what they think of it ?

I have to agree, I thought its`s primary use was for laying roads.

And it`s secondary use for dipping the tops of pencils in to prevent children nibbling the tops?

Marmite is a godsend, nothing else tastes as good on toast, especially with cheese spread.

I can see why people hate it though, it does has something corrupt about it.

Wilf

Have to agree with Mosh i'm afraid.
Brown and smells loads, can't eat it cos i can't take the lid off the jar.

I've voted now! Thanks Fletch. :)

Glad to see mosher and venger agree with me.:thumbsup:

Smells awful, tastes awful.....yerurrrchh!

Hmm.. I don't think I ever imagined that Marmite would have the same sort of social limiting power of say smoking but it seems to be the case...

Lot of ladies who wouldn't like my breakfasts :D

I love it and adore it

I was raised on it

All my pals keep a wee jar in the cupboard in case I am staying over for breakfast

I even sneaked some over to the US with me on holiday

YUM YUM YUM

PS Spotted some marmite walkers crisps in Fox's today

If you ever come to my house to stay, and you're more than welcome, you'll find the wee jar under the bed.:D

Don'treally like it but if you put a little bit on potatoes before you roast them, it's the best thing EVER. Honestly! Try it. :thumbsup:

As far as I am concerned it is the yukkiest thing invented but Richard, my hubbie, loves it.

Please everyone prove me right on this one.

Granary bread, toasted and buttered. Then smother with Marmite.

Mmmm. Snack heaven.

Your hubbie's got it spot-on, I'm afraid!

My marmite related comment is here.

mmmm marmite in mash potato :D

Ew i hate it! :gag:

how do you do that - I can only imagine the mess if I tried to make mashed potato and handle marmite at the same time :hihi:

That's the fun of it! :D

I used to love Marmite,
I hadn't had any for years, then thought i'd get a jar and found i could not stand it.
I was convinced they'd changed the taste, but i think maybe my palate has changed over the years.
Just thinking of it now makes me want to try it again but i know i'll not like it, i think i'll have a go at the 'mashed potato' idea of Cherry's to see if i can get back in to it.
good idea :thumbsup: any more recipies out there ?

no seriously - how do you do it :confused:

My marmite would just stick to the knife and refuse to budge, then when I tried to mix up the mash, it would all just stick together.

Eeee Lotti, what are you like?! You just make the mash and then spoon in some marmite and mix it up :D maybe your mash is too cold or thick :confused:

Mmmmm yummy! Though I do prefer vegemite to marmite, it's all very similar though isn't it?

There isn't an 'on occasion in small doses' option.
I'm one of the weird ones who buys a mini jar and it lasts 2 years, I do eat it, in small scrapings on toast on rare occasion.

Stirred into hot water and drunk from a flask whilst sitting on a drystone wall in Derbyshire on a misty Autumn morning. Mmmmm, bliss!!!

Eaten? YUCK!!!!!!:gag:

Dear lord it's AWFUL!! :gag:

I was told and it was confirmed by a chemist, if you eat marmite it stops the mossies from biting you, more affective than any insect repellant.

I HATE Marmite
(isn't that how the song goes)

and it's 05:20... So I thought I'd ask if you love it or hate it (what else is there to do?)...

I love marmite, but my boyfriend won't kiss me when I've had some, and I prefer kisses.

Well I ticked Love it, but I don't think the 'you either love it or hate it' thing is true, I like it but I could take it or leave it to be honest!

I LOVE Marmite, have it every day. But there's an art to spreading it on toast. Non marmite eaters spread it on too think, it has to be spread very thinly and randomly across the toast:D .
My husband doesn't like Marmite and once made me some, he spread it like you would jam.:gag:

Think should be thick:D

I dont agree with the love it or hate it saying...

I personally dont mind it... i can take it or leave it...

Sometimes when having toast and really feel in the mood for a little flavour i'll add some Marmite... :P

marmite.............devils pooh. :gag: :gag: :gag:

OMG It's YUK!:gag:

I like marmite, its full of good stuff.

my mum loooooves it, and so does my bloke, i find it disgusting, it bloomin stinks n'all, so when my bloke has that, i make sure he goes and brushes his teeth after, YUKKY!!! :gag:

I love marmite, but always found you have to use it sparingly or it would burn the roof of your mouth with a ferocity akin to nitric acid, then I discovered VEGEMITE ! :thumbsup:

Its just as tasty as marmite, but you can spread it on thick and still have an unscathed tongue!!

:clap:

Uh oh....Kristian's back from his hols.:D

Did you have a nice time?

On topic: Marmite's one of those things I don't buy because I have to be in the right mood to eat it, so most of a jar would probably go to waste because I don't fancy eating it a lot of the time.

us veggies cant live without it :)

on toast, in gravy

its not as nice as bovril was tho or oxo, as a drink or to dip bread in

Its the food of the Gods.

Who's tried those lovely Marmite biscuits? They are very, very nice, not cheap though.

B*gger. Now I am craving some hot buttered toast with marmite.

im not, im about to have mi tea :P
dont want to spoil mi appetite, still ill be having veggie oxo with marmite in it as gravy :)

I'm about to cook the tea, so marmite on toast would be greedy, but as soon as the stuff is mentioned I want to eat it. Does it still have nicotinic acid in it? It used to.

I used to make soya mince mixed with hot water, tomatoes and marmite. Mmmmmm......

I didn't like the marmite drink my aunt gave me when i was a kid, I thought it'd taste like oxo, or bovril, I refused to touch the stuff for years after. (although i did like the marmite-y tasting twiglets, isn't that odd?)

Then, about 18 years ago, I was stopping over at a friend's place, and at breakfast, she put some marmite on toast for me to try, and I was hooked.

I would agree, though, that less is very definitely more when it comes to spreading it on your toast, if you spread it thickly, then the flavour is too intense, and it overwhelms.

PT

One of my favourite supper dishes is my home-made chilli-bean soup accompanied by crusty bread spread with butter and a thin layer of marmite - yum!!

yeah maybe those that hate it had it spread too thickly as a child and now have a phobia?

maybe not
*gets coat*

Orrible stuff, worst aftertaste in the world! Though grapefruit juice comes close.
