I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do this (I'm not much of a rule breaker
) but here's the part about marmite JPs (by Caitlin Moran):
This year’s Glastonbury Festival was, as always, amazing: the biggest arts event in the world, bathed in sunshine, one-use-plastic free, able to donate millions to its chosen charities and topped by Stormzy, in a Banksy stab-vest, delivering one of the most thoughtful, ambitious and exhilarating sets any festival has seen. The talking points were multiple, the excitement constant, the scale mind-blowing.
However, on the first day, as we queued for cider, my friend Sali casually mentioned that she always puts a blob of Marmite into her cheesy baked potatoes – “It just makes it a thousand times more savoury” – and a wholly unexpected arrow of desire punctured my heart. God, I wanted to try that potato. I wanted to try that potato with the same urgency with which, at the age of 15, I wanted to be kissed. More so – for your first kiss can go terribly wrong, for a variety of mortifying technical reasons, while a good cheesy baked potato can almost certainly be conjured up by, say, a reasonably intelligent dog. A dog that could then easily pop a spoonful of Marmite in too. This was, surely, a disappointment-proof infatuation. I knew it would be amazing.
And so – “stuck” in the middle of the most exciting festival in the world – the thought of this god of potatoes tortured me. All through Hot Chip, the Chemical Brothers, Sheryl Crow, Lizzo – it didn’t matter how big the bangers were or how outré the spectacle, there would always come a point where I would be crowd-surfing on the outstretched hands of thousands only suddenly to think, “Imagine if I were doing all this – but also with a mouthful of cheese and Marmite potato?” It was like a combination of unrequited love and the longing of a former junkie. The point where emotional hunger and actual hunger meet. In a way, the Ghost Of Delicious Potato Future ruined the whole weekend.
As soon as I got home – before I even said hello to the kids – I ran into the kitchen to crank up the oven to 220C and oiled up a potato the size of my own head. The Marmite jar sat on the sideboard, waiting.
Well, it’s now six months and roughly 50 Marmite and cheese baked potatoes later, and I can confirm to you that the potency of the idea is matched equally by the potency of the tuber-and-yeast reality. This is a meal you can believe in. At roughly 10p per portion, it’s £4.40 cheaper than avocado on toast and £440 nicer. I commend its deliciousness to you.
