I’m one of those people who actually likes Marmite. As everyone knows Marmite is made from yeast extract. But what I didn’t know was that the jar has a picture of a ‘Marmite’ pot on it. A marmite (French Marmit) is an earthenware or metal covered cooking pot.
marmit love it or hate it
Someone once told me that Marmite was made of what was left when ale had been brewed – the leftover yeast. They said that some was kept and rest was sold on as marmite. Don’t know if this is true though.
Yes it is! Just found it in Wikipedia. I think it’s good for you, – well perhaps all the salt isn’t, but I like it spread on toast with cottage cheese over it. Sounds bad eh? Each to his own.
Peanut butter not how I remember it - wrong colour
Another spread that I used to be mad about but now can’t eat now because of the calorific content and the absolute MORISHNESS of it – is peanut butter. When my mother used to get it – I would rush to that cupboard to get a bit. Alas, = sometimes I was not quick enough and my sister had been there before me – and stirred, yes stirred sugar into it, what a revolting thing to do yuck! And this is coming from a person who loves Marmite…
