It's a yeast extract used as a savoury spread on toast, etc. and for flavouring in cookery. As you can see, opinions are very divided on its merits :-)Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3705825161954545710.post-34206714516593061792011-11-06T18:00:50.627+00:002011-11-06T18:00:50.627+00:00I have no idea what Marmite is!I have no idea what Marmite is!Linda Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05706455533282204519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3705825161954545710.post-24219512948449983932011-11-05T16:52:22.577+00:002011-11-05T16:52:22.577+00:00Hi, Sue.

I have just bought a very unusual dress, which my husband, through guffaws of laughter said, yes I could wear in the street - it is perhaps on the edge of quirkiness but I shall have to think very carefully about what is quirky and what is not. <br /> <br />But really, Perpetua - how can you NOT like Marmite - my jaw actually dropped when I read that. I may have to reassess the criteria I use to judge people in future...Marmite lovers are always 'in'. <br /><br />Thank you so much once again, and thanks for introducing me to some other blogs that I haven't yet come across and know I will enjoy reading.<br />AxxxArtyZenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12628693178003940118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3705825161954545710.post-7706692036757634742011-11-03T11:19:27.705+00:002011-11-03T11:19:27.705+00:00My pleasure, Ray, as a small acknowledgement of ho...My pleasure, Ray, as a small acknowledgement of how much I enjoy your blog.
