Ahhh my favourite food.

It has to be wholemeal bread, butter and a thin spreading of marmite.

Or have you tred it melted with butter, mixed with grated parmesan (or cheddar) and mixed into hot spaghetti? Bloody marvelous...

Nope, YANBU, but has to be with butter!

i feel ganged-up against. :(

My nan used to make the best marmite on toast when I was younger, good times...Did anyone try the special version made with champagne? It was super lush! Ha ha Mini

Oh noo - now I am craving Twiglets, because of the mentions here. Am in the US, and we can get Marmite here quite easily, so that is not an issue. We have even found a pleasant replacement for Jaffa Cakes (and have a stash that friends brought in for us) But I had carefully put Twiglets out of my mind - now I desperately want some!!

Get your coat nickel, and I don't mean in the "you've pulled way" :o

Anniegetyourgun · 17/09/2010 15:58

Ooh, the spaghetti idea sounds amazing.

It really is lovely,(marmite spaghetti) very comforting. I have been known to chuck in peas or chopped parsley but tbh it sullies the taste of the marmite Grin

and sometimes take marmite n cucmber sandwiches to work for lunch. Yummmy.

I like to spread it on toast before adding beans and cheese

We haven't had marmite for months. It's soooo expensive. Every time I see my parents or MIL I beg marmite on toast from them (even if we've popped in for a cup of tea). I feel like an addict. But not ashamed enough to stop asking.

TheThingUpstairs · 17/09/2010 16:50

YANBU, it's great. DH bought me a giant jar which I am probably overly proud of!

niftyfifty · 17/09/2010 16:51

Try it on toast topped with banana - delicious!! Grin

proudnglad · 17/09/2010 16:55

God no I hate bananas - devil's food. Don't defile the Marmite!

Marjee · 17/09/2010 17:00

Yanbu, marmite on toast is lovely Grin

I thought this thread would be more divided.

FreakoidOrganisoid · 17/09/2010 17:05

It's one of my best comfort foods, love it.

You know I will have to have some now. Angry

mathanxiety · 17/09/2010 18:01

I had three slices of it for breakfast, lots of butter. mmmmmmmm

Butter and Marmite in spaghetti sounds fab.

CupcakesHay · 17/09/2010 18:22

LLLLooooooove it. I live abroad, and can't always get marmite - i bring about 3 jars back in my case, but doesn't always last!

Tabliope · 17/09/2010 18:42

Lidl is selling big jars of Marmite for £2.49. There was something in the news a while back that Marmite is now more expensive than oil for the same quantity - Sainsbury etc were selling it for close to £5 so Lidl's £2.49 is a bargain - I got two as the dates say till Oct 2011.
