Do you love it? yes.gif or do you hate it? no0pb.gif


Me personally, looooove it! cost so much for a tiny jar, $6.50 at Stop and Shop! I get my family to send me nice big jars! can't live without the stuff!
biggrin.gif
psho
I'm the USC, and I can't bring myself to taste it, but my guy LURVES it (especially on toast)!
Lisax
Awww absolutely on toast, Bagels, my husband USC loves it! I sent him some before we met in person and loved the stuff instantly, he got hooked!

Is so true though, you either love it or hate it, lol

Lisax
Hmmm, I don't think I've seen any Vegemite around, I think I may have seen in one time, can't remember where though, any websites you can get it from? but I know they ain't cheap.

guess its time to hit on the family for a care package!. Vegemite comes now in soft plastic travel tubes..
I saw Marmite in the Virgin mega store in Times SQ, a year back, they have a Brit food section. It was over $7 a jar!
Lisax
ooooh! how big were the jars in Times SQ? All I've seen so far are the tiny jars!

this looks like the answer to all your prayers kicking.gif (it also does vegemite though out of stock at the moment). Prices look pretty good from what I remeber it wasn't cheap in UK so with shipping this is probably cheaper than getting it shipped over (big jars too and bulk buy)
Lisax
kicking.gif wooohooooo! thank you!!! biggrin.gif cool.gif
Lisax
bulk buy devil.gif

I just bought a jar of Marmite today, I love the stuff. I'm not in the US yet, will have to ask Tommy if they sell it there in SC or not...hmm...

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. unsure.gif blink.gif dead.gif tongue_ss.gif no0pb.gif

Oh...just a personal opinion, obviously. tongue.gif M. Btw, Craig lovesss the stuff and we have two huge containers in our cupboard. To be perfectly honest, I probably haven't given it a fair shake as I had the tiniest possible nibble of a piece of toast one time that was spread *very*thinly with marmite.... laughing.gif Everything about it is just gross to me....Craig says the same though...adverts in England even talk about how you either love it or hate it.... M.

Well, I LOOOOVVVVEEEE it.

I brought a jar over with me, my hubby tried it and he spent the next ten minutes over the sink making "uuurrrgghhh" noises.

I guess that means he hates it, huh? tongue.gif

Haha... I made Casey try it last year, as I'd been trying for months to describe it to him but it's impossible to explain Marmite to someone who's never had it. We had Marmitey crumpets, and I was fully expecting him to screw his face up in disgust and be mightily unimpressed... but he was so taken with it that he ended up taking about 6 jars back with him, and trying to give some of his friends & family the mini-jars as gifts. Their reaction was apparently more of the 'urrrrgggghhhh, that's revolting' variety - so he now has all those mini Marmite jars in his desk at work to eat on bagels (hm, can't say I've ever had Marmite on a bagel, but each to their own!) and disgust his colleagues. biggrin.gif

I'll be taking lots with me... at least two of the big jars. I know I can rely on my Mum to keep me well supplied with the stuff - I can imagine she'll go a bit overboard though, and I'll have to tell her I don't really need a giant jar sending every fortnight! laughing.gif
