Super Marmite - Yay!!

[its hilly]

My cat adores marmite...climbs legs and steals toast n marmite.
So does OH, and dog and mummy horse!
And of course ME.
Does anywhere sell it in buckets.
Only complaint, how do they justify charging so much for what is basically a waste product, like the suger beet pellets i buy for the horses, they only cost £6 for 25kg...why not marmite

LOL! I'm so glad there are people getting just as excited as me on this. I saw an article in the paper the other day, and when I told DH excitedly, he just looked at me like I was on drugs or something.

[HeyWayne]

Did any of you folks get the specials?

I got the Guinness version and the Ashes one.

Assume there must be others?

There have been a few - both the Guiness and Pedigree ones were ok, but they were both using similar yeast extract to the original. The Champagne one was just awful though.

I used to love Vegimite but Marmite is just as good

Go and wash your mouth out!

Does anywhere sell it in buckets.

You can buy catering sized tubs - I have done in the past, and will probably again.

XO is matured four times longer than standard Marmite for a thicker consistency and more intense flavour. It will be available from Waitrose and Selfridges from Monday 1st March and Tesco and Morrison’s w/c 8 March. RRP £3.99.

Aha!

I'll get LadyWayne on it straight away!

[Dane End Dolly]

You're all disgusting. Fancy eating yeast poo. YucK! Where's the vomiting smiley???

Sluglobber, you obviously do not have a sophisticated pallette

[ginger ninger]

Nicos...Can you get it over in France??

normal stuff-yup!

-not sure if I'd like the new one though...was just interested to hear what it's like!!

[sagegreen]

Will definately try XO, as soon as I can find some...Check out the Marmite Group photos' on f/book!

[pipscariad]

Not sure I'm going to dare try this XO version - I'm one of those oft derided folk that only likes the thinnest of thin smearings of the stuff. I have to confess that when I read the article on HW's first posting, it sounded like an April 1st wind up to me! And it was by Haymarket Brand Media too .... However, other posting confirmed it, so I await our first Vine connoisseurs verdict.

p.s. And I'm with HW on the Champagne version, (bought romantically for OH on Valentines day...). Just awful.

Yes you do, Sluglobber - don't listen to them!!

[Jeanied]

Has anyone actually tried the Marmite XO yet? The only reason I ask is there is a jar in my shopping bag as we speak! Unopened.

[dexterdoglancashire]

How revolting! I can't even stand the normal stuff...................
They do say there are people who do and those who dont - marmite that is - Im in the second camp.
