Too much in one go and I don't want to touch it for months afterwards. It's really nice if you put it on toast before the cheese for cheese on toast!

Not *exactly* the same as the Heinz baked beans from Britain, but certainly not as sickly sweet as most BB available here.<br /><br />Marmite on buttered Jacob's cream crackers - mmmmmmm!<br /><br />Or how about toast, buttered, marmited, beaned and egged!

I guess that's life! I treasure my jars of Marmite and guard them jealously as I never know when I can get another one ;P<br /><br />My friend here in the US recently had a birthday and I decided to give her an British birthday. I gave her Marmite (of course!), lemon curd, Jacob's Cream Crackers, a Curlywurly, Heinz baked beans (they're different to American ones!) and some Scottish shortbread. She didn't like the sound of Marmite at all but I think everyone should try it once in their life!<br /><br />Sometimes the best pleasures in life are the simplest - I suggest you try Marmite on hot buttered toast and ditto baked beans. Baked beans on toast is a great snack whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner - and you could spoil yourself by adding two poached or fried eggs on top! Mmmm - excuse me, I need to go into the kitchen now ... ;PTracinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531149316869318805.post-61247694198874814092009-06-04T17:37:29.832-04:002009-06-04T17:37:29.832-04:00Thanks Emma!

As a Marston's Pedigree lover myself, Pedigree Marmite sounds great! I'm afraid I'm not really a cricket lover (although I'm a big fan of a village-green matches with a pint in hand!), but that's a great tie-in.

Think perhaps of soy sauce that has somehow been made into a thick paste. That would be close to marmite.Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11298215369738638280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531149316869318805.post-459778411404769472009-06-04T14:22:02.779-04:002009-06-04T14:22:02.779-04:00I didn't get pretty well what marmite was :s T...I didn't get pretty well what marmite was :s The first time I hear that..Is it something like honey?
