Marmite, Lover or Hater?

Its all that veg! Maybe i should become a veggie and then i can look 14 all my life!

I hope you dont eat quorn?

I hope he doesn't eat fish, unless self caught...
Biggest hypocrites around, veggies who eat fish.

There should be more options on the pole, which merely underlines the cliché that you either love it or hate it. Perhaps we could challenge that assertion?

I found the XO darker, more bitter and saltier. Morrisons do a yeast extract that tastes very similar to the XO.

They've done a few "specials" - ones based on champagne yeast and Guinness yeast spring to mind. Have they ever teamed up with their near-neighbours at Marston's to do one using Burton Union (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brewing_me ... rton_Union) yeast?

Best steer clear of certain disgraced glam rock stars in that case.

I think the XO one may have been a team up with Marstons

Have it in my sandwiches nearly every day at work :shock:
Just love the stuff about the only time i dont have it at least five times during the week is when im away on holiday

If Marmite had missed the boat as far as a bit of Jubilee marketing goes, I'd be very surprised! Sort of Marmite-related, given where the raw ingredients come from - special Jubilee beers have started to appear in my local Co-Op and may have to be sampled soon....

Disgusting stuff, but what do I know, living on the continent and all...

Love it, loads of butter on granary or brown toast

the XO I found to be more rounded, stronger but mellower for it.

prefer it over the normal stuff

whats not to like?...as mentioned in previous posts, it's a by-product of the fermentation process...beer on toast, yuummmm and twiglets, even better, beer on sticks. I'll never forget Xmas 86, i got The Wall on vinyl from Mum and Dad and a party pack of twiglets. I was in my room alllllll day. Still got the record and it still has twiglet stains on the gatefold..happy days.
