Off Topic Marmite, Love it or hate it

I did similar with my French colleagues when I first joined a French company.... they were not impressed

 

And my nose! Smell something good and I'm suddenly ravenous.

 

I am more negative about Marmite than I am about Saints. Horrible stuff. Twiglets are the worst thing ever created

 

I think all bacteria like chocolate.

Chocolate is bad for dogs so my son's pooch had never tasted it. I dropped a miniscule piece of choccy cake on the floor which he casually hoovered up (as is his wont). It was like Jekyll had changed to Hyde....he practically cornered me....I was in fear of my life. Chocolate must have some kind of magical powers.

 

It's only 12.30, and I've already had breakfast and lunch. No marmite involved. And no chocolate (yet).

 

I've had a banana and a glass of wine....so that's 2 of my 5 a day.

 

Does a Terry's chocolate orange count?

 

Is this true? are Oxo cubes no longer cubes? Should've voted Brexit!

 

this week I found HP sauce and Worcester sauce at the market in Serbia. Wow good old English classics. The HP sauce was made in the Netherlands, the Worcester sauce ....... China

 

I love a lady who has a glass of wine with lunch (well, a snack)

 

When you move abroad there's always something you miss. For me, every time I come home, it's straight to Tescos to stock up on Bisto gravy powder (or granules) Especially the chicken variety.

 

I thought it was against the law to come back from a holiday lighter than before you went.
I don’t use scales very often, but if I do put weight on whilst on holiday it will be because it is the only time I drink alcohol on a daily basis.
At home I only drink alcohol, normally a lager, when eating out.

 

You can stick this foul stuff on or in anything you like but I will never eat it.

 

It's too salty.

 

Meridian do a salt-free option. Haven’t tried it, but I actually prefer the salted one to proper Marmite. Sacrilege I know, but there you are.

Never heard of it. Will investigate.

 

I thought it was only I who did such a thing.

My wife think I’m the devil when I eat it.

 

Yeah I do that daily when not on holiday too.

You are talking about eating again at 8am, aren’t you?

 

My lad is allergic to peanuts so I have had to switch to a roasted soy substitute called Wow butter. After 11 years I’ve gotten used to it and it is a decent substitute. You just have to try it not expecting it to be the same as peanut butter.
