i ask this to someone once.. and they said .. Hate no Love no Hate no Love.. continuesly for about a minute i hate it when people cant make up they're minds... but anyway how can you not decide it beats me? i have not had marmite since i was about five so i cant really remember what it tastes like? What is it about marmite that makes it so special?

This morning in Photography, my friend was explaining the 'correct' way to apply marmite. Ugh.

there is a correct way?

Apparently.

The 'correct' way is to quickly butter the toast so the butter melts, and then put 4 marmite blobs on the toast and spread it.

I can't believe I actually listened as she was explaining.

I think people only love Marmite if they're brought up on it....we aaalways had Marmite soldiers when we were little (weird because my Mum hates it yet still gave it to us...meh) and we all loooove it

what is marmite? is it sort of orange jam?

Nooo that's marmalade! (Also yummy! )
Marmite is weird- I think it's made from yeast extract it's a gooey black substance which you spread really thinly on toast (it would be way too strong spread thick but hey, some people like it that way..) and it's YUMMY!

(How can you not know what it is?)

MEH that hasn't happened in ages, I was hoping it had finally accepted my new identity....oh well..

isn't there something smiliar in america called vegemite? i thought there was... i know that we don't haveanything like the here... but it's nice that it's such a british thing...

lol marmite = british pride
oh and i thought vegemite was australian but what do i know?

Its yukky

i agree with clare i think it is summit ur brought up on, we always had marmite soliders, and marmite sandwichs in our packed lunch! i love it and my mum does, she has marmite and banana sandwiches!! i dnt like that but she does!!

eugh banana.. i cant stand it ..it has a spine yuck!

I tried it for the first time the other day... Jeff's a big fan. Lets just say this is something we will NOT share. Its all his.

Horrible stuff!

I'm with you 100% there Clare. I *love* Marmite. My messengeral system name is dedicated to it. And has been for ages. (So it's quite strange to find a thread on it in here...I think I'm being spied on.. Chaaaaaass....)

Can anyone remember those 'blob' adverts they had for it? Where people just literally dived into the blob which was supposed to be Marmite terrorising this street?!
No...? Just me then.

Yep, just you.

But i do like marmite - just about the only thing I'll have on toast.

I've seen that ad. The marmite blob looks gross though.

Really Jade? No Philadelphia or Strawberry Jam at all?? (And those two would be separate thank you, Jam and Philadelphia together?! Yuck. But on their own.....mmmm mmmmmm!

oh wait, actually...philadelphia... i forgot about you.

I remember the blob advert. It scared me a bit though. A scary marmite blob coming after you and people decide to dive into it? And its marmite! Euuuuggggghhhh! Crazy people!

If you jumped into a Marmite blob without any form of protection, I'm sure it'd burn though. And not in the condom "protection" sense or STI-burning, just general goggles...and burning from...I don't know...the yeast...

I should just stop talking.

But my point still stands.
