Marmite and marriage! (Lighthearted)

Binkyridesagain · 20/01/2013 19:01

DH and I have been married for 17years, through all this time he has known there is a line that you do not cross, the marmite line, on one side is me the hater, the other is him the lover, I am quite happy for him to indulge in his vile habit and there is space in the cupboard for him to store the various jars he collects, I believe I am showing a level of tolerance that is above and beyond what most women would endure.

He knows that if he wants to indulge and spread the sludge on his bread he can but he must keep it away from me and anything that I cherish and hold dear.

The bastard has introduced MY dog to it and the bitch likes it. I don't know who has betrayed me more, him for crossing the line or her for siding with him on the love it/hate it argument

I can't believe he would risk 17 years of marriage for this.

AIBU or should I LTB

Yup I'm another who appreciates marmite for cooking and flavouring but wouldn't notice if they stopped selling it.

The love/hate things a myth.

Is the love/hate thing a myth? Thought people either really really love it or really really hate it. No sort of middle ground.

DH says it smells like dogs arse

How on earth does he know what a dogs arse smells like?! :o

Binkyridesagain · 21/01/2013 10:49

Does he sniff dogs arses on a regular basis or was it a one off?

If marmite is heaven why the need to combine it with jam etc?

Best sandwich when on a diet: marmite and fried egg.

TwoCatsAndABabyBump · 21/01/2013 15:36

Can't stand marmite but I am partial to a twiglet Blush BOVRIL on toast all the way!

YABVVU - Love Love Love marmite in this house. We all do thankfully. My DD2 just turned 1 loves marmite sandwiches for lunch :)

Also good in spaghetti bolognaise & shephards/cottage pie yum yum yum.

Good diet snack is Marmite rice cakes Grin

ChristianGreyIsAJackass · 22/01/2013 14:39

I try not to think about it ;)

love love love

Marmite and rocket sandwiches are very good.

BUT
You have to perfect the technique of wrapping it around the knife to avoid getting a sticky jar. Now having a sticky jar is BU and

hate hate hate
