Another Vote For Orcus!! (as if you couldn't guess!)
A mate of mine from Canada professed to Loathe the stuff. She stayed over one night and made me Brekkie with Marmite on toast in the Morning, only she got it wrong - she spread it on like JAM (i.e. THICK) - which is a bit too much (even for me)... When I pointed out her mistake and introduced her to the delights of thinly spread Marmite she Loved it - and even better went for Marmite and Honey for afters.. When she went back to Canada converted she took a large jar with her too...
(mind you I haven't heard from her since...)
WORSHIP AT THE ALTAR OF THE ONE TRUE SPREAD! MARMITE FOR EVER!

Hmmm... well, I've been told the reason I'm vertically challenged is because I hated Marmite as a kid. If that's the only drawback then I'm satisfied with that as long as nobody else tries to force feed me the stuff. I'd rather gnaw my own feet off than eat it....!
Hmm.. no feet... must have tried that one before...!

Yes Yes
Marmite is wonderful
(Good prank on weirdos who don't like it and who happen to share your flat. Acquire large syringe or similar and fill their toothpaste tube with Marmite. Top off neck with a little of original Colgate or whatever to disguise the somewhat-giveaway colour. Takes most of the night to accomplish, but reaction is very satisfying....)

Hey stop talking about marmite, I'm suffering from withdrawal symptoms 
, I can't get marmite out here and the lack of my weekly fix is starting to effect my brain 
.... I'm becoming normal again!!!
Has anyone else actually tried intravenous injections of marmite? 
(PS, I think you can count this as a vote FOR 
)

where are you that you can't get Marmite?
Should we send an emergency air-drop?
Is there a Charity we can contribute to for the Marmitely Challenged?

I'm in Lyon, France, arguably the gastronomical capital of the world, and they don't even have marmite, what a bunch of heathens the french are

Orcus Posted Sep 5, 2001
Suddenly the French have gone up in my estimation.
Pinniped - if you EVER did that to me there is NOWHERE you could run!

...the ONLY repeat ONLY negative thing about marmite is that marmite is a fr**ch word, means saucepan or cauldron (depends how much asterix you've read).
*not surprised about Lyon*
