YABU not to have cheese on top of the marmite toast, but that's all!

I’ve never tried marmite, I don’t want to have to bin a whole jar in case we’re ‘haters’ what does it actually taste like?

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 19/11/2018 19:43

John there's bound to be some wacky Doc out there who can do some sort of transplant to make your wife like marmite!

Marmite on toast is my go to food if I’m feeling grim. Nothing makes me feel better , faster .

Sadly DH can’t bear it , in fact even the smell of it causes him to have a visceral reaction , making him go white , then green , then throw up , then have a migraine. So I’ve only accidentally shoved it under his nose once in 20 years !

I love toast, marmite and lurpak dipped into a runny egg.

sparklepops123 · 19/11/2018 19:47

Marmite with fried eggs 👍

BentNeckLady · 19/11/2018 19:49

Marmite and cheesy triangle on toast with a cup of tea. Heaven!

Yes sparklepops!!

I’m just about to have peanut butter on toast for dinner so yes YABU. There is actually chicken and rice in the fridge but I can’t face that. Sometimes you need a toast dinner.

TantricTwist · 19/11/2018 19:55

YANBU and as for Vegemite it tastes much more bitter than yummy marmite, which incidentaly I didn't start liking till I was 29 Confused

fruitpastille · 19/11/2018 19:55

Bovril is better.

raisedbyguineapigs · 19/11/2018 19:55

I wouldn't have bothered making dinner for DH if I wasn't going to eat it! I'd have added 'can't be bothered to make dinner. Have a freezer tea' before sticking 4 slices of bread in the toaster and putting my feet up Grin

BumDisease · 19/11/2018 19:56

"what does it actually taste like?"

It tastes like shit that's gone off.

BackforGood · 19/11/2018 19:57

Well, YANBU to have marmite on toast because you cba to cook, but seems a bit weird if you have gone to the effort of cooking

walke · 19/11/2018 19:58

Vegemite is NOT good enough. Marmite or get out.

I didn't want the pasta because I'm a vegetarian of sorts. 'I'm fussy'

Thanks Notreally re njuda explanation. Have never heard of it in my life.
Marmite tastes of savoury saltiness. Can't explain properly but my mouth is literally watering at the thought of it! Smelling Lea & Perrin's has the same effect of unintended drooling.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 19/11/2018 20:17

I want Marmite toast now. I had my dinner earlier. WIBU to make some and call it a late supper? 😂

walke · 19/11/2018 20:17

@MargotLovedTom1 Just pop those babies in the toaster and get spreading

OP posts:
MargotLovedTom1 · 19/11/2018 20:40

I've already eaten and I'm on a diet as well 😢.

walke · 19/11/2018 20:42

I'm supposedly on a diet too. Sigh

Blimey what a tedious conversation.

Alicatz66 · 19/11/2018 20:53

Yum !!! I've had a dinner of peanut butter toast and a mince pie

walke · 19/11/2018 20:55

@A580Hojas You've definitely been the most tedious. 100%
