Marmite. Love it or hate it?
Stu
EDIT: Before anyone thinks I've gone mad(der)... this started at
http://www.shipsim.com/ShipSimForum/index.php/topic,1867.0.html
I was PROVOKED into it. :D
-
yuck! Though my wife LOVES it!!! ??? in fact all my gf's of the past have loved it (marmite). I must point out that i have never had more than one gf at the same time ;D
-
I bet ya that Stu loves Bovril too :o ::)
Marmite for me is 'the pits' and should be banned ;D
-

Well damn well get her here voting- the whole lot of them...
Only ONE at a time... :o Really?
-

No. Bovril is the symbol of the anti christ.
As most people know I have a huge respect for DJM and would not normally argue with him, but here in this topic the normal rules and manners do not apply and I warn you DJM that any offence against marmite will be dealt with SEVERELY. OK? >:(
Cheeky so and so :P
Stu
-
Please refer to my PM ;)
For all you guys who would like to know, in that PM I actually said "Bite me"......just as long as you haven't been eating Marmite ;D
-
I'm not biting ANYONE regardless of marmite eating status
-
Actually a hot mug of Bovril at 02.00. on the 12 to 4 watch can definitely NOT be beaten. Especially when llying at anchor off Leningrad (sorry St. Petersburg now) in November. :P Warms the cockles of your heart!! :-* ;)
-
Prefered a mug of hot choclate made with condensed milk at 0200 my self....
Used to send the Polish AB down to get a tin from the galley..they couldnt understand why the 2nd Off wanted it!
;D
-
AB?

Well, it's still not proper marmite, but it's close enough. Welcome to the club. Watch out for these uncouth ruffians with their criticisms, led by a bloke with a picture of Morpheus from Matrix as his avatar.

AB stands for Ablebody Seaman. A sailor who has more than 1 years seatime, but is not qualified as an officer. (Also passed a few exaims such as a Safety at sea, lifeboat ticket, Steering Ticket, EDH etc)
;D
-
I like Marmite, maybe cause I lived in Oz a while... ;D

Ah right, thanks.

I just did mate, no worries... ;D
-
We have got "really Love it" to vote for, but not "Really Hate it" ?? ??? Is this post started by someone who loves Marmite i wounder... ;D
-
:o No. Of course not. Would ANYONE ever do such a thing I wonder?
Stu
EDIT: I've changed it to really hate it. It won't get used anyway :)
Stu
-
Connie Onnie and Shaky, that takes me back a bit, but how about a Marmite buttie and a tabnab to finish off with? ::)

I prefer Tuna & Mayo butties personally ;)
-
to be fair how about "Really Love" and " Really Hate". Only in the sense of playing fair to all! Of course 50% of all statistics are all made up.... ;)
-
This is really taking me back. ;D How about duck s**t & hailstones or lighthouse dodgers? :-[
-

75% of comments regarding statistics are inaccurate. Where do you fall?? ;)
Marmite; I used to love it, haven't tried it in ages though.
-
Of course 50% of all statistics are all made up.... ;)
Actually, I think you will find it is 76.546% of all statistics are made up on the spur of the moment.
Unless you are in government then its 104% of them.

If I'm not miztaken, another name for it is Vegamite, you know, like in the song..Down Under..
"He just smiled and gave me a vegamite sandwich.."

Greetings,
Question?????
What is marmite,maybe i know this,but i dont know realy in english.So if you can explain what this is,i can learn something.
Regards
Marc
-
Here you go Marc ;D
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmite
In my personal opinion, it's the most disgusting product ever made, but I am very particular about my food ;)
-
Greetings,
What i understand,is that this is the more solid version of OXO,that you can spread on a sandwich.If i'm correct,because i see there is a beef taste.
Must be very strange,to spread on a sandwich,however,i never tryed ones.
Regards
Marc
-
Well, kind of. I like OXO as a drink, as well as adding it to certain foodstuffs, gravy is also quite nice when it's made with OXO, but Marmite for me is too strong in flavour to truly enjoy.
Think of it as an extremely strong version of OXO that has a bitter taste. If you do decide to try it, be prepared.......have some sweet dessert or at least something sweet on stand-by ;)
I tried it once when I was much younger, and I never liked it, although some of my family really enjoy it ::)
-
Thanks Carl for the warnings,and explaination of this product.
I dont recall it's in the shop's(supermarkets) overhere.So never had the(luck ??????) to try it.
Greetz
Marc
-
You're welcome my friend :)
Personally, I'd stick with OXO, not only does it taste great, but it has medicinal properties too ;)
Example - If you have a sore throat, or a tooth infection, try an OXO drink. The fact that it's loaded with salt, helps to fight infection ;D
-
Yes,Carl i like OXO to,specialy durring the wintermonths.I drank it when i was on my vessel at 10.00H in the morning,instead of a coffee.It has a great taste,and it keeps you warm for some houres,when you're on deck.
That last can be phychological,but it helped for me.
Marc
-
It's always good to keep warm in those long cold Winter months eh ;)
OXO vs Marmite
OXO will win every time ;D
-
Well, it seems that i've learned something more,my day has started very good.
(i defined)Marite,is crude oil in a jar,which has the luck to taste like old cowes ;D ;D
However there's a market for it,some like it,some dont.
I cant vote now,because never tasted it.But if i see the decriptions of some of you,i think my definition,must be very close.
Regards
Marc
-

Well, well.... Marc- how do you know what old cows taste like? ;D
Stu
-
Well, well.... Marc- how do you know what old cows taste like?
Stu
Stu,you have me with this,i'm speechless,very good indeed.I liked that one.
Now i have to think,very hard to reply on this.That will be a full day of work ??? ;D
Regards
Marc
-
crude oil in a jar
You got it! :D
Stu will probably try to have me lynched for that, but ah well ;)
-
try
Try?
-
Try?
Exactly.....you do realise I have The Matrix on my side don't ya :P

"Take the blue pill and wake up in bed believing whatever you want. Take the red pill and start an adventure..."
"...why did you take the red pill then...?"
"It's marmite flavour"
Stu
-
Ok, I've just loaded an Anti-Marmite grenade into 'The Construct', I intend to release it later :P ;D
Marmite.......obliterated overnight, long live OXO :D
-
OXO? :o :o But that's just gravy. You can't put that on a sandwich or use it as djm repellent.
btw did you know you can live solely on a diet of marmite on toast?
Stu
-
btw did you know you can live solely on a diet of marmite on toast?
You can live solely on a diet of bugs too, but the question for BOTH of these is.......would you REALLY want to? ;)
-
Well you can't put marmite on toast either so wrong! ::)
Marmite is just like tar for spreading on road...infact i am sure that used some to mend my driveway last year ;D
-
Marmite is just like tar for spreading on road...infact i am sure that used some to mend my driveway last year ;D

Can you really?
And you should know better than to mention bugs here :o

Good grief! I hope YOU don't work in road re-surfacing then! Mind you, couldn't be much worse than the way they do it now. :D

Hi All,
Will add to this one OXO is very good as DJM says above loaded with salt.
Also say if you are being sick mean (throwing up not being crude) or the morning after DRINK ! not Kids of course,try a oxo drink in a mug help a lot trust me.
Also another one have a mug of OXO with a few slices of bread,Dip bread in mug great YumYum :-).
Cheers Timbo :) :)

And what, prey tell, are your medical qualifications in this matter? :D
You DO know that salt is bad for you do you not?
Members of the jury... I rest my case
-
And what, prey tell, are your medical qualifications in this matter? :D
:P I was trained as a Chef in the late 1980's, the first things you learn are Food Safety and Food Theory ;)
-
I can see this thread becoming the longest on the forum. Imagine that, the people on this forum being more bothered about Marmite than the ability to switch engines on and off! :D
-
Well why not, what goes into MY tum is just as important ::).
By the way Stu, how on earth can I vote, the poll doesn't work. :'( :'(. ???
-
:P I was trained as a Chef in the late 1980's, the first things you learn are Food Safety and Food Theory ;)
So salt IS good for you then? Ah. great. I like my salt... Must phone up the dept for health and let them know theyre all wrong about it ;D

The poll is working! (Unless you're voting against, in which case forget it ;D ). What's it doing?
Stu
-
So salt IS good for you then? Ah. great. I like my salt... Must phone up the dept for health and let them know theyre all wrong about it ;D
Stu
::) There's ALWAYS one eh :P
Too much Salt is bad for you of course, but OXO's salt content can help to fight mouth/throat infections ;)
-
So a LITTLE bit of oxo is good for you? OK. That's fair enough. Thanks for that.
So if you eat too much oxo containing salt it's bad? yes?
Well, you can eat as much marmite as you like. Or as much as you don't like, before you say it! Simple. ;D
Stu
-
Well, you can eat as much marmite as you like. Or as much as you don't like, before you say it! Simple. ;D
Indeed, simple as having a bucket on stand-by........I would recommend it if you're gonna over-indulge on Marmite :P :D
-
Steady on DJM!
I doubt even *I* could manage a WHOLE bucket of marmite! You CAN have too much of good thing you know!
Stu
-
The bucket is for the 'after-effects' ;)
-
DJM. You are NOT having the last word, OK?
-
DJM. You are NOT having the last word, OK?
After affects??? Ah- second helpings!
-
Vegemite beats marmite anyday!
-
Not Kiwi Marmite! :)
-
Hello Stuart,
On my machine the polling options are there, but nowhere to put a vote! :'(. I now realise why I am unable to vote!!! :-[. Because I already have, Oh well, maybe I'll wake up one day. ::)
-
I don't believe it!!! :o. STUART! Where are you hiding? ???
-
What's different about Vegemite? Is it even more delicious..? :D
-
I don't believe it!!! :o. STUART! Where are you hiding? ???
Nice edit on the image there Traddles :D
Edit: My preferred Helm-Snack in the image below ;)
-
Actually I think OXO is just as good as Bovril, nice to have it handy like this though. My picture edit is a bit crude (Like Marmite ;)) but it's my first effort, I couldn't resist the temptation to try, :P.I really wanted to put Stu in the picture, but that was beyond my abilities!! ???
-
Your picture edit is fine, especially for a first effort ;)
I do agree with you on Marmite being 'crude' though ;D
-
Very nice picture, traddles...
DJM: I'm not sure the skipper of that ship will appreciate you spilling GRAVY all over the bridge.
Stu
-
Gravy ???
OXO is a stock and seasoning agent, gravy is the end-product that comes from using OXO (among other things) :P
I prefer the traditional method of making gravy personally, using 'proper stock', but most people don't bother now ::)
Anyone remember 'gravy browning'? Also used as a 'fake tan' after the war apparently ;)
Probably worked great, until it rained :D
Edit: 'Fake Tan' & 'Stockings' ;D
-
Spambot used to use a burnt match to put "Seams" in their fake stockings. I'm really giving away my age now aren't I? :-[ Tights had not been invented then never mind nylon stockings!!!!! :o ::)
-
LOL, not at all ;D
I got told most of this from 'older' relatives, fascinating stories to be honest, just like you have Traddles with your post in that add-on ships topic :)
That's one of the things I love about this forum, such a diverse group of people, you can't help but be fascinated by it all ;D
-

Before my time, DJM... Didn't realise you were of that age... :P
Stu

Stu
:P I'm not, my Mum used to use it in the 1970's, when I was still a little nipper :D
I'm still quite little, but not a nipper anymore ::) ;D
-
OK DJM... We all believe you... Don't we lads. DJM was only a lad in the 70s... No, I really DO believe you. I'm sure :D
Back in the days when everyone lived on a diet of Marmite.
Joking aside, when you look back at how basic life was then... Hard to believe we are in the same lifetime...Oh dear. I'm getting old. (NOTE: NOT as old as DJM ;) )
Stu
-
(NOTE: Not as old as DJM... ;) )
You aren't THAT far away.........stop trying to make out you're really young, we ALL know you're not :P :D
-
Cheeky young whipper snapper.
Get back to your marmite sandwich!
Stu
-
Marmite must be as old as the hills.... ;)
-
Marmite must be as old as the hills.... ;)
Just between us, I think Stu is too ;) :D

Your'e wrong, it's me who is OLDER than the hills!!! ::) :'(

Dear fellow Marmite fan,
I would prefer to use the term 'wiser' than older to describe our seniority. :D
Stu
-
Stuart you are too kind! ;D One has to be realistic though, I have yet to find anyone on the forum who is older, however I am not yet totally decrepit, (I think) :-\

...
It was obvious you aren't quite right when you voiced disapproval for Marmite :D
Stu
-
It's OK DJM. I KNOW you are losing the plot :(
That should be HAVE LOST ;)
In fact, I'm not even sure I EVER knew the plot :D

Greetings,
About this marmite stuff,i realy cant help you,but about the age ,well,age is all in the mind.

too much Marmite can play tricks with your eyes ... ;D

Marmite wins.
Sorry Mr DJM... Looks like you're wrong.

Marmite wins?? :o
Not possible, most people i know dislike the stuff.......

Euuuggghhhh! :-[ i completely despise it! >:(
-
Here's an apropiate site for all concerned.. :D
I'd go for the "Squash Me" there......under the wheel of a truck :D
-
I just looked up Marmite on Wikipedia. Apparently it keeps the mosquitos from biting you.
Unfortunately the article doesn't say whether you eat it or smear it all over yourself.. :D
In the last case I'd say you could walk into a pack of hungry crocodiles with confidence, they'd probably go scampering at great speed into the water to get away from you.. ;D
Unless of course they are that rare breed that likes the stuff, then good luck to you... ;D
-
ROFL, I like your thinking, and your sense of humour :D
"Marmite, the croc repellent".....sounds about right ;D
-
Marmite as a croc repelant! ;D My sides are hurting from laughing so much!!!!
-
Marmite wins?? :o
Not possible, most people i know dislike the stuff.......
Well the poll says it all really... There again... We had a similar situation with the general election and I don't know anyone who voted for that, so maybe...

Greetings,
The same overhere,we have voted,and still dont know where this country is heading to,over 150 days,and still no goverment.
It has been even on bbc,and on the dutch tele.
We are as a country not much knowed by the majority of people around the world,well now we do stand on the map.
One explaination for this.well
"THIS IS BELGIUM :) :) :)"
Marc
-
Belgium holds one of my favourite Formula One races, Spa-Francorchamps, always exciting ;D
-
Hi Marc
I always find it very strange when watching British news on foreign TV stations. Much of it is reported inaccurately (even English spoken news broadcast for expats) and I wonder therefore how much of the news we see here in Britain about other coutries is also inaccurate and distorted.
As for your government, that is bad news... As I would hate to see Belgium without a Government, you can have ours. With pleasure... PLEASE. Take them. <lie>They aren't that bad </lie> ;)
Belgium holds one of my favourite Formula One races, Spa-Francorchamps, always exciting ;D
Belgium is a lovely country and has a lot more to it than boy racers driving round a loop all day :)

And you too! You need to get out more.Stu
Are you kidding? It's a jungle out there! ;D
-
Are you kidding? It's a jungle out there! ;D
I was wondering where you'd spotted those Crocs ;D
-
good thing I was wearing my "protection".. :D
-
LOL, imagine your holiday list eh ;)
Suntan Lotion
Swimwear
Camera
Money/Travellers Cheques
Marmite ::)
:D
-
a good list...a jar of Marmite is essential when travelling abroad.. ;)
A little dab"ll do ya.. :D
-
A little dab"ll do ya.. :D
....or a BIG Croc'll bite ya ;)

LOL :D I'm staying clear of those crocs, just in case... ;D
-
Hehe :D
I get the feeling that this topic has flown off on some wild tangent, likely to never return ::) ;)
-
yep.. ;)
-
Well,the closest i ever was with a croc,was in a shoestore.I think i never had the chance to ask if she had tast marmite in the past.
She was boxed allready :D :D :D

LOL, reminds me of that awful song by Jimmy Nail "Crocodile Shoes" :P :D
-
I was more thinking of "crocodile dundee".
I have to say,this is a very strange topic(but fun!!!)
We have started in the kitchen(marmite)and now we are on the way to national geographic(croco's)
I think you have to smoke some spliffs,to follow this
Very odd ;D
marc
-
you're absolutely right marc.. ;D
-
Excuse me! >:( This is a Marmite discussion. Any non-Marmite posts will be deleted. You have been warned. :P
;D ;D ;D
BTW Marc: Forget smoking spliffs... Just try Marmite. It has almost the same effect.
Stu
-
Just to prove Marmite has more uses than just a great food stuff:
http://www.shipsim.com/ShipSimForum/index.php/topic,3372.msg34106.html#msg34106
You can even use the jars to look after important ship sim documentation!
Stu
-
BTW Marc: Forget smoking spliffs... Just try Marmite. It has almost the same effect.
Stu
What...smoking marmite?
-
What...smoking marmite?
Good God.... Some people WOULD try it!
Stu
-
So marmite becomes an allround product now.
Very usefull.
Marc
-
Not only that, Marc... Just saw on the news... It comes in squeezy jars now! :D
Stu
-
Yes, though DJM prefers the squashy jars.. :D
-
Yes, though DJM prefers the squashy jars.. :D
DJM actually ADMITS to liking something Marmite related? I'm impressed. He did a pretty good act of being anti-Marmite...
Stu

Yes, though DJM prefers the squashy jars.. :D
Hehe, only for driving a truck over them :D
Squashy Indeed ;D
-
Philistine
-
Would they have it in tubes.Or is i to liquite for that.
This idea would be easy to use,on you sandwich.Realy no need of a knife.
Than it becomes maybe very popular,so i can become more rich,thanks to the stock-exchance.

I think I may have discovered why DJM hates Marmite, here's a film with him as a baby.. ;D

I dont know about DJM, but i reckon it was modeled on me! ;D
My Mum loved (and still does!) Marmite, while her offspring, Moi and my sister, both hate it! urgh!! ???

Well ,that small guy was'nt so bad,he was on the right spot.Marmite or not,i wish i was there in his place.
Next time they may ask me for a commercial like that. ::).

Actually, there IS!
It is quite fun.
Stu

it seems that the marmite has been smashed,and sticks on the floor.
Because no respons, in the last few day's ???And that just afther just 6 pages :D
It's some kind of strange :D
Marc
-
I think Marmite has been put on the shelf Marc, maybe later... ;)
-
I think this conversation died a death when the poll closed and revealed the overwhelming majority of people love Marmite.
The opponents realised their sad, strange view point was not reasonable and the champions of marmite, well, we realised we had done our bit to promote this wonderful foodstuff.
Stu
-
LOL.. :D Yeah, Marmite rules..!.. ;D
-
I think it is equally revealing that the second highest majority voted: 'What the hell is he on about now?' :D
-
I think it is equally revealing that the second highest majority voted: 'What the hell is he on about now?' :D

Oh yes? Doesn't seem very empty to me! ;D
-
Maybe. But remember 64% of all the respondents did NOT vote on that option! :P
Stu
Ah, but remember, the majority you proclaim for those liking marmite is only a majority in terms of FPTP, not an absolute majority. 8)
-

You are in denial. Stop it. There is nothing wrong with it.
Stu

Ah well. If it's good enough for National Elections <sarcasm> (praise be to the Government) </sarcasm> then it's (almost) good enough for Marmite.
Stu
-

Always ready to inform & educate! In the city of my birth, Liverpool, we natives or Liverpudlians (Scousers that is) know exactly what "samarrerwack" means. It means "what is the matter my friend?" or to quote Bugs Bunny "what's up Doc?" Anyway denial is a big river in Egypt isn't it?
-
Anyway denial is a big river in Egypt isn't it?
I thought I recognised the name ;) ;D
-
This is now the most visited post on the whole of the small talk forum. Surely we must set out to find where the Marmite mines are? Are they somewhere up that big river? ;D ;)
-
Hmm.....time to get the blasting equipment out methinks......to close those mines of course ;) :D
-
Close the Marmite Mines! Never a truer word spoken DJM. ;D Then we can transfer full production to the Pot Noodle mines, somewhere outside of Cardiff I think..? ::)
-
I think I've found where the Marmite mines are! :o Some rotter has disguised the name to put us off, it's called Marmet and it's about 8miles south by east from the city of Charleston, West Virginia, USA, beside the Kanawha River on Route 64. Thats a bit sneaky Marty, trying to fool us like that!!! :P ;D
-
Attempting to blow up the Marmite mines may not be such a good idea...
These mines are owned and worked by the "Marmites", proud and ferocious beings that would have no qualms in taking any ill-doers prisoner, forcing them to work with them in the mines, living on a diet of bread and the local delicacy..
So DJM, I would love to see you try...
Of course I would visit you now and then, try to smuggle in a bar of Snickers or something... :D

That is what you think my good friend!!!! Here is the map to prove what I said about the place. ::) ;)
By the way saltydog, as you can see there are a lot of trees there, so you must watch out for the Marmites hiding there, because as you say they will get you for cheapo labour if you aren't careful :'(
-
Oh God it's true! :o

Not to worry my friend, I have an Anti-Marmite suit ;)
Not only does it protect against gloopy splatter when I blow up those mines, but it prevents those weird little beings getting a grip on me :D
Snickers.......I prefer Topic personally, but anything to take away the taste of Marmite would suffice ;D
-
Aah, an Anti-Marmite suit no less..And what good, pray tell, will this gooey armor of yours help when the Marmites surround and close in on you by the thousands..?
You would be quite helpless my friend.
No one but Gonzo the Great could help you in that situation.. :D
-
Gonzo The Great?
What about DJM The Marmite Masher :D
-
The Marmites laugh at such feeble resistance..
The Marmite Masher would be in pieces before you could say: "more Marmite?"... :D
-
:P
I'd have to get all Matrix on 'em then, use my Focus ;) ;D
-
Be warned, if need be, the Marmites shall use the Marmite Squeeze Continuum.
This weapon shall squeeze the universe into an area the size of London, with a topping of Marmite
You would not like that.. ;)
-
Marmite topping :o :o
Now if it was a Lasagne topping, that I could live with :D
-
Aah, Lasagne, one of my favourites..
in fact, I think my next cooking session shall be lasagne.. ;D
-
No one but Gonzo the Great could help you in that situation.. :D
Funny you should say that saltydog. When I was last at sea the cadets on the ship called ME Gonzo the Great because I have quite a large hooter (nose). :o ;D
Apparently, according to Wikepedia, Marmet was named after The Marmet Coal Company who mined in that place. Of course it was a cover up, they were actually mining Marmite and sending it down to the sea for export to UK. You can see the towboats and Marmite barges in the view I sent earlier.
-
Seriously now, you guys must go to bed with Marmite on the brain! :D

I like your story Traddles, but I heard a different tale about the origin of Marmite.
Some time ago, somewhere in the last century, there was a guy named James Brown.
He lived in a small town in England. In his neighbourhood also lived two beautifull sisters: Heather and Mar
One day James plucked up enough courage to ask Heather if she would go steady with him.
She supposedly answered him: "No, I won't be your girlfriend, but Mar might"... :)
Indeed Mar did, and James went on to invent this wonderfull product, and named it after the momentous words of Heather.. :D

-
saltydog,
I liked that story very much, it reminded me of my Mother, years & years ago, when I was a small boy. If I misbehaved to her annoyance she would say:- "Marmite smack you if you don't behave properly." She was a very special person, only died last year at the age of 105. It was odd to be orphaned at the age of 71!! ::)
-
I'm sorry to hear of your loss.
-
105 is a respectable age, was she a Marmite fan, Traddles..? :)
-
hi saltydog,
I think she was actually, we did get the occasional Marmite butty when we were children!! ;)
And Captain Davies, thanks for your reply. At 105 my Mother was ready to go and had been begging to be released for a long time. So in a way it was more a time to rejoice in a life well spent than to be sad.
-
Well, I guess Marmite will be back on the shelf a while.. ;)
-

Dear all,

Ah well, at least you have the good grace to admit it... Your punishment is to write out 100 lines of:
"I love Marmite"

::) there are limits to a chaps humility.... :-X

I see the stuff is even involved in the United States Presidential election caucus. This appeared in "The Mail on Sunday" this morning. :o ;D I hope I'm not in breach of any copyrights here, but I got a laugh from it. :P

The term (marmite :-\) here in brazil can bring some troubles to whom pronouce it :-X , :-X , :-X

All of the missions that I have released via the new Custom Missions ystem have secret Marmite hidden within them.
But then, I am very strange. ;D
-
The new guidelines for CMMs require that all missions containing Marmite be rejected immediately. Missions from those suspected of including Marmite must be quarantined for 30 days to allow the decay products to build to detectable levels.

And yet, strangely, the only mission I have uploaded that didn't have hidden Marmite was the "Solent Difficulties" which was so difficult it immediately trashed the tester's PC ::)
PS Half life of Marmite is more than the possible age of the universe. It cannot actually decay. No living organism can digest it.

Like it or loathe there is one scientific fact (well, noticed by many people) regularly eating marmite stops you being bothered by gnats and mosquitos - they hate the stuff.
-
I thought this thread had gone forever! :D :P ::)
-
Hooray! We're back. Look out world.
I my experience, Marmite also helps to prevent elephants dropping out of cherry trees as eaters of Marmite walk past. I know this as a scientific fact since no-one who eats Marmite has ever been inconvenienced by this potentially traumatic event. ;D

I've been away for a while hoping that this thread would die in the meantime, but now I'm back only to realize that it's still alive! :o :-\

Hi groennegaard.
Yes, as I indicated a long time ago in a post in this thread, Marmite has a half-life which exceeds the age of the universe. It never dies!
But we need some humour in this forum at the moment. Things have got very serious recently! ;D
Life is too short to be miserable. Every smile you give to someone else is a diamond in your list of achievements.

Don't know that Pa would approve but Ma might

So,i was thinking that the jar of marmite was empty,however,you found a new one.
;D :D ;D
marc
-
Hi Terry :)
I couldn't agree more with you. We definitely need more humour in here!
Time will show if Marmite will outlast the infamous 'Patch time..' thread which also refuses to die, even though there has been no activity in that thread since October. I will not be surprised to see 'Patch time..' return from the dead with Marmite all over it! ;D

Watch this space...

And Marmite returns from its holiday in the Phi Phi Islands.
Now fully refreshed, it has helped to produce a new set of radio sounds and horn sounds, as announced in today's newsletter from Vstep (in which the name of world's most prolific Marmite eater was incorrectly spelled - blame Frad_Med!)
As you can see, dear reader, we are all extremely euphoric on Marmite.
The soon to be released Solent Saturday Service 1 - 4 missions and Solent Summer have hiden Marmite in them. Can you avoid that sticky, brown fate?
Confused? You won't be when you play those missions and listen to the new sounds while eating your Marmite Sandwiches.

Great to see you again. I, personally have missed you and your humour. We need more of it of late.

The newsletter tells me there is to be a new game SS2009 (am I expected to buy a new game every year?)
If I don't buy the new game will I have to eat stale Marmite sandwiches after March next year or will there still be some Marmite produced for my 2008 jar?
-
;D
Well... not every year.. but every 1.5 to 2 years.. yeah! :P
That's not uncommon in the sim genre now is it? :D

Mad Fred! Please do your job properly and stop this sort of off topic conversation creeping in. This is clearly an inappropriate post about Shipsim and has little to do with Mar*ite. :o :P

Morning Marc
Yes, everything is as close to 100% perfect as it will never be, thanks.
I've been away for a while- trapped on a desert island with nothing but sun, sand, sea and some nicely chilled lager... It has been hell 8)

Sounds like a really nasty thing to have to put up with Stuart!
Good to see you back! ;D

Well, I knew it wasn't the island I live on (Selsey). We don't have Spambot.
Or is lager we don't have? I never could tell the difference after I'd had a few.... ;D
But we DO have Marmite.
-
STOP talking about lager! >:( I've got to drive tomorrow.... mmmm lager and etimram sandwiches.
That is lager in a glass, etimram on bread.... not etimram AND lager on sandwiches... then again... ;D
-
Aww, I just went to the kitchen to make a marmite and lager sandwich, but the missus has just finished the last slice of bread (dipped it in Jack Daniels, I think)
:'(

That's good grounds for divorce! >:( "M'lord.... My grounds are that she cruelly ate the last piece of bread thereby preventing me from my ration of etimram".
You should have had a pre-marital agreement "honour, obey and NOT eat the last piece of etimram sandwich!

I've heard about that guinness version... Not to sure I like the sound of it... It's a bit like drawing a moustache on the moaning lisa

The way I heard it was that you "didn't improve on perfection". But maybe I misheard it (or had too much lager, Jack Daniels, Guiness and Marmite in my ears. (We're a strange set of people on this island).

People have been killed for trivial things like offending religions... making cartoons of the sacred prophet etimram etc.
It is TOTALLY unacceptable to say bad things about my lord Etimram. We Etimram believers are good, peaceful people and- Death to anyone who says otherwise.
(Any similarity to any religion- real or imagined- is purely (un)intentional).
PS If anyone is offended by this then please do let me know and I'll (not) delete it.

I should advise you, Mr Russell, that I have recently declared my own registed church of Marmite and find your offensive comments against my religion totally unacceptable.
Therefore under the well-thought-out human rights directives from the EU I am planning to make a formal complaint to the Police about you. I'm sure they will appreciate the time spent, excess paperwork and all the usual rubbish that goes with it before declaring it a total waste of time.
(sorry. I've just finished the EU post and should have taken a deep breath before looking for an excuse to have a go at EU rules here) ;D

Fortunately no-one is reading this thread so I can tell you that I am in fact a secret agent for Marmite. If you look carefully in all of the missions I have created, there is hidden Marmite. Best not to say anything or I may have to melt you down and hide the evidence in the Mamarite production line, along with the usual input of creosote and tar.
Now, shh. Tell no-one. Our secret is safe here. DJM is my long-lost son that I never knew I had and Traddles is in fact a figment of DJM's Marmite-twisted mind.

I still find your ceaseless tirade against mar*ite unfounded and just not on.
We Mar*ite worshippers are peaceful, placid, law abiding people. And we will kill anyone who says otherwise.

As a founder member of the Mainly American Revolutionary Missippi and Idaho Television Engineers, I am hereby launching a formal protest at the continual misuse of our unregistered trade mark, Marmite.
This is your final warning. Any further misuse of our worthy intitution's credentials and especially any that confuse our highly disqualified members with a thick brown sticky goo will cause us to issue a further warning, so be warned.

Well, sat here in Athens, I have just tried a fried acronym and it was delicious with calamari. As for the toasted snake that was good with a savoury dip.
The raw snake was a bit of a struggle as the damn thing bit me twice. Is it cobras that have the sort of flat hooded appearance? Oh dear! Excuse me while I hit the floo
-
good to hear from you terry, hope you're getting a bit of a tan..
don't let those greek anacronyms bite you in the bum.. :D
-
After the anti-snake serum, I am now partialy recovered. Unfortunately I have only seen the sun briefly on my way from the hotel to the Client's offices this morning. No chance of a tan.
Off to Cyprus tomorrow evening after another day's work. Staying at a good hotel, but unless things have changed in the past couple of years, there will be no internet connection, so I'll be off-line until Saturday evening when I return to the UK (my return should be announced on News at Ten)
PS there seems to be no Marmite in Athens, unless I have stepped in any on the pavements (which is possible, looking at them)
-
have a good time.. :)
-
Should have more luck with Marmite in Cyprus methinks. Anyway, why don't you take it with you TR?
-
Yes- take mass volume of both mar*ite AND anacronym for the expats- you'll make a fortune.
You've got the right idea though... get some clients in hot countries for tax deductable holidays... I like your thinking...
Is there an ISO number for that? ;D
-
Evenin' all!
Just back from Cyprus. Started out 2:00 a.m. UK time and just got in at about 19:00 UK time. It's hotter in Selsey than it was in Limassol or Athens.
Limassol did have Marmite! The hotel had it in small sachets at breakfast time.

Just to rub it in: My mother-in-law lives near Miami. One of my sisters-in-law lives in Tampa Bay. The other lives in Clearwater, Florida. Visiting the out-laws is pretty good! I like my Mother-in-law and sisters-in-law, so that's a double hit. I also have some clients out in Miami, so jackpot!

Terry,
Whilst I was seriously thinking about going ISO9002... I'm more thinking now about engaging you as a consultant to design a system of excuses I mean clients that i can visit tax deductable around the world for cheap holidays.
Furthest I've been on a business excuse/trip is the far east Lowestoft.

Ah 9002... A standard that has been dead for almost 8 years.. Suitable for an ingredient in Marmite?
Hey don't knock Lowerstiff! I've got clients there... Some of them are not married to close relatives.

Well, that shows how much I know about the subject then :o I read your website and understood that 9002 was 9001 without design components. Misunderstanding. Too much mar*ite today.
I'm looking at buying a competitor in Portsmouth, so I can get a nice holiday home on the Solent office on teh Solent. Tax free, of course ;)
EDIT: Sorry Terry. I've re-read it and now makes sense. 9001:2000 Why won't they just keep to one thing and stop changing it >:(

You are truly mad, then. Stokes Bay, maybe. Best thing to do with competitors in Portsmouth is to await the inevitable decline and get them cheap. (Oh dear, here come the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune....) SORRY! Only joking.
-
Oh, why won't they give it a simple number... 5750 sounds like a good, albeit random, number.
and to reduce the number of letters you need to type, why not put BS at the beginning instead of ISO.
(Yes, I really do belong in a museum)

They do. The actual title in the UK is
BS EN ISO9001:2000 revision e.

No, as always, I appreciate your wise comments. Pompey has many bad points to it, but I am really impressed at the way that various official groups (councils, police, psychiatrists) are actually trying to deal with it. Better than some of the holes elsewhere, where the rot has set in. I don't know Stokes bay, tbh.
Remember that in the event of the collapse of civilisation, being near the IOW (which will likely be the only part of Britain to survive apocalyps) is a good thing.

Of course, living in Selsey brings almost total isolation. The news about that work of Modern Art, "Stonehenge" was greeted here with plans for a ritual sacrifice of anyone with an IQ of over 25 in case such new and strange things upset the lords of the weather and mud.
We're still searching for such a person, you understand, so the skies may darken in the meanwhile from the outrage of irritated deities.
The lost land of IoW can of course be seen from here. In case you were wondering, the reason we consider it "lost" is because we don't know which way we're looking. Or indeed, which way is up.
-
Terry, I don't mean to be rude (there's a first!) but have you been sniffing Mar*ite again? :o
-
No, I live in Selsey (see above).

No, I live in Selsey (see above).

We have the very first jar ever made. It is worshipped every Wednesday, of course.

They'll forget all about it, once you get electrickeryfication down there. and running water... though im puzzled about running water... Did you ever see water run the marathon?

Marmite sounds like something id go to the doctor for. :-X It also sounds like something that would kill a party over here in the US. :D 8)
-
I think it would probably kill Americans, never mind the party. ;D
My wife is from New Jersey and she reckons that Marmite is more toxic that most of what gets poured down drains in New Jersey...

I remember reading somewhere at school something about other things other countries eat. Marmite was in there.
Ps what the heck does this radioactive stuff taste like. :D

Many resist the lure of Marmite, but in the end Lord Marmite-on-high will get you. And you will be punished and cast into the eternal pit of damnation (also known as a Glasgow pub at closing time) unless you repent your sins and allow Marmite into your life...
Youknow, there's some Jehovas witnesses who live nearby (very nice people actually, but I always politely decline, but still they insist...) I think I'm going to knock on their doors when they're half asleep and spend 9 hours converting them to marmite worship

And whilst we are on the subject, I want to complain about you publically for your off topic posts.
Do you realise just how many of your posts here do NOT contain the word Marmite? Not good.
;D ;D ;D
And for anyone who lost their humour overboard, this is not a serious statement, OK? :o
-
LOL Stu :P
"Brown Goo" isn't a topic really, it's a sad excuse for a foodstuff that should be banned for all eternity :D
Now here's a topic ;D
-
BTW I heard a story that marmite is good for ucers.
-
It's the only thing that keeps me going.

Try telling that to djm. he might listen to you.
Its like an alcoholic (and NO IM NOT suggesting djm is one, btw!) - you can't help an alcholic who won't admit he has a prolem.
Until DJM admits he has a marmite deficiency problem, he CAN'T be cured!
-
Now here's a topic ;D
Now that topic is off-topic, isn''t it? Still, better to be off topic than off marmite. ;D

NEWS FLASH:
I've just invested in 2 things for the office, and already productivity has increased:
1)A Toaster
2)A pot of Marmite
Who needs computers, staff, customers... As long as you have Marmite
(oh and a packet of crumpets) I like a bit of crumpet ;D Preferably blonde ;)

Because of this topic, I discovered toast with Marmite..I must say a very nice addition to my favourite delicacy of peanut butter with pepper-paste.. Sliced toasts with Marmite are called this I think.. ;D

Yep. "fingers" of toast, covered in marmite!
I'm going to have some for breakfast, right now. Thanks for the idea!

Since 99% of all the posts I make are marmite related, I thought it would be a good idea to go and join the marmite forum at marmite.co.uk (just so I can annoy them by posting shipsim emails.... (not))
And the forums are closed >:(
-
I am just so amazed at how many posts can be made over something as trivial as Marmite! ;D
Now down here in Aussie it has to be the black goo Vegemite, now that has a real bite! :D & btw, I do have it on toast every now and then, great for cooking too! ;)
Cheers.
-
How dare you call the supreme food of the Angels (Marmite) "trivial"!
Winning a million pounds is trvial. Taking a trip to Mars is trivial. Marmite is never trivial.
And although your Vegemite may look similar, Marmite is very different. It is, after all, a mixture of salt and fungal extracts.
Delicious. ;D

-sliced radish
Enjoy... ;D

Here's mine ;)
A thick slice of white bread
The cheapest spread you can find (not Butter)
Lashings of Marmite
.......The bin has never been happier :D
-
Hovis, two slices
Benecol with Omega 3
Light spread of Marmite
= happy Terry.
PS be careful not to have too much Marmite. It is high in salt and the B vitamins can cause very vivid dreams, if taken in excess.
-
.......The bin has never been happier :D
Don't beat it before you eat it... :D
Explain Hovis and Benecol, Terry..I don't know it..
-
Hehe, I'd never eat that stuff EVER again. Tried it once when I was younger, and I hated it ;)
-
C'mon, it puts hair on your tongue..I have to shave every day... :D

LOL, hair on your..........tongue :o
PASS :P
Now if it put hair on your head, I'd jump at the chance :D

Hovis is a type of wholemeal brown bread.
Bencol is a butter-like margerine. Very low in fat but tastes similar to butter.

Err...yes, didn't I mention the external uses ?
Applicate generously to the head, and avoid all human contact for a week.. :D

Anything not about Marmite is definitely off-topic. As punishement you may be forced to eat a pot of marmite...
marmite is made from processed fungus (sounds so appetising, eh?), whereas yours is made from vegetable extract (I assume). Not even from the same Kingdom.... ???

Very important question: Does any one know the actual ingredients of Vegemite? If you can quote off the label that would be marvellous.
Thanks.

Terry,
Not exactly but there are some great links if you Google it!!
This is the best, complete with videos!!

It's similar, but milder (huh! Weaklings). But I still don't see the list of ingredients. I checked teh Vegemite home page, but they won't say...
-
Hey guys..
It seems the true recipy is a bit of a secret.. ::)
But I do know that it's main ingredient is the yeast extract that's made from the leftover yeast from beer breweries. Vegemite has also got vegetable and spice additives added to it as the most important additional ingredients.
But I think that Marmite also has those, right? (wiki thinks so) Although Marmite is much more on the salty savoury side, I think.

They do seem to be a bit different. But not fantastically.

How about this:
Ingredients:
Vegemite (Kraft General Foods NZ Ltd):
Yeast extract, salt, malt extract, colour (caramel), vegetable flavours, vitamins (niacin, thiamine, riboflavin)
Marmite (Sanatarium Health Food Company, NZ):
Yeast, sugar, salt, wheatgerm extract, mineral salt (508), colour (caramel), herbs, spices, vitamins (niacin, thiamin, riboflavin)
It's also got a small note under the ingredients: "100% vegetarian" (but then, what do you expect from a company owned by the 7th Day Adventist church?)
Promite: (Masterfoods of Australia)
Vegetable protein extract, sugar, yeast, natural colour (caramel), salt, thickener (Wheat starch), emulsifier (Glycerol monostearate), spices, added vitamins, water

Hi Mike.
Thanks.
Strange how the overseas version of Marmite has sugar. The UK version doesn't. Some of the references I looked at said that the Australian & NZ versions were "milder". Must be the sugar.

Marmite and Vegemite ingredients are as follows:
Goo
Essence of Goo (flavouring)
Glue (to make it stick to the top of your mouth)
Tar
Battery Acid (additional flavouring)
Creosote (colouring)

Hmmm... This forum seems to be turning bad-tempered again, to look at some of the recent posts.
So, MARMITE TO THE RESCUE!
I was reading a thread in which people were arguing whether black phones were better than white phones. And there were some expressions which seemed less than kindly.
Surely there can be no discussion? Marmite coloured phones are the fashion icons!
At Traddles' great age, the only problem is that he might think it is a Mars bar and take a chunk out of it (if he can find his teeth). The saddest part is that he may not notice the difference and will consume the lot.
Later he'll wonder why no-one calls him on his phone any more, and why it softens in the heat.
Sorry, Angus. Just kidding! Your turn to get revenge on me, now... ;D

Here's a nice advertisement..Just for the heck of it.. :D

Excellent stuff! (Marmite and the advert) ;D

Glad you like it.. ;D

There's Terry looking at Marmite, you can see the passion in his face hahahahah :D

On one of my better days. The camera angle was just right!

Amazing how a man gets after he hasn't had Marmite for two weeks..
Here's a soothing picture to erase it from your minds.. ;)

I will, in my supreme state of Lord of the Marmite, accept that you ask that question out of ignorance, not malice.

Firestar, wouldn't it help to do you own research before interupting the whole topic and sending it off topic (like you have) ::)
-
Firestar,
Just sit down with a few marmite sandwiches, and nibble happily at them while you read all of the previous posts. All of the sum of human knowledge and experience is within them.

Never seen it in the US. You can probably order some online.

Have you ever had any? If so, is it good?

No but now that everyone in the US wants to a review on it I might have to find it and have some.
Terry I have a question, is it sticky? I can't eat anything sticky for another 2 months untill I get some stuff outa my mouth, luckily it worked and has fixed my speech and overbite though. :)
-
You can get it from Amazon.com.
Russ K

Sweet. I am going to get some soon.
-
Yes, it is very sticky ;D
But it tastes nice on toast
-

Ok it will have to wait a few months then. If I eat anything sticky it will pop my crowns off.

Put in the fridge and you have something with the texture of molten tar.
When my wife first came here from the USA, she put my Marmite in the fridge. It took me half an hour to get it out of the jar!
But, the thing to remember is that it is VERY strong flavoured. You spread the merest hint of it on your bread. So the stickiness is not relevant. It should be vapour thin.
Excuse me, off for a sandwich now.
PS you can get it in some places in the USA, but you'll have to hunt somewhat. There's a place in New Hope Pennsylvania (near to my wife's old haunts in NJ) that holds a couple of jars for me, and another in Florida that does the same and also one in Houston. (Can you tell the places I mainly stay at in the USA?). Just setting one up in Boston for my forthcoming trips.

What is it's shelf life?
Russ K
-
I would say the shelf life is about a year
To give you an idea of the taste: if you like the occasional lick of Maggi, you will definately enjoy Marmite.. ;D
-
What is it's shelf life?
Russ K
Seriously, I have jars that are several years old. I've never known one to go off. Not sure how you'd tell, anyway!
-
I just checked the "official" date on the jar, Terry
To be honest, a jar of Marmite never stays on my shelf that long.. ;D
-
So did I. The jars I have do not show an expiry date.
As I say, I've never known one go off.
-
And, as you say, I too have no idea what that would look/taste like..
Who knows, it may improve with age, like fine wine.. :D
-

Yeast extract. Very concentrated. Very strong taste.
You spread it on bread or toast, thinly.
It is crammed full of vitamin B and other useful things. Good for us diabetics! No calories.

I read all 20 pages of this thread. You guys piqued my interest so I ordered some Marmite from Amazon.com. Just got an e-mail from them saying it has shipped. Now I'm anxiously awaiting the delivery cause I'm sure I'm going to love it. Unless I hate it.
Russ K
-
Russ
Great,but remember that it just needs a thin smear. Not
like peanut butter.
Rgds
Mike
-
Wonderful on bread. Spread a little butter or good quality margerine (I use Benecol), then a thin smear of Marmite on top.
Stupendous on toast! Same method.
But people either love it or hate it. There seems to be no middle ground. In fact the makers have a series of adverts with people either flocking to eat samples or running screaming from an attractive lady holding a plate of sandwiches.
-
I have to be in the mood for Marmite. Sometimes I like it but sometimes I prefer sweet things. But that's just my random sweet tooth/savoury tooth alternation
-
Marmite and chocolate sandwiches! Now there's thought...

What is the preferred tea to wash down the Marmite or is there another non-alcholic beverage that is better?
Russ K
-
English Breakfast Tea with milk and sugar
-
The delicate flavour of Earl Grey goes down well with a Marmite buttie. Milk, but definitely no sugar. :o ;D
-
I'm fond of a good mug of coffee with marmite sarnies. White, one sugar.
-
I'm not a Marmite virgin anymore! Just tried some on buttered toast and it's really quite good. It tastes like a somewhat salty brown gravy on toast only not as thick or soggy.
Russ K
-
Did you enjoy the experience?
-
Yes I did actually. I like sopping up gravy and meat juices with bread so it's right up my alley even though it's vegetable and not meat it tasts similar. Washed it down with a cup of T&H Yorkshire tea, black because I don't care for warm milk or sweet unless it's hot coco, and I seem to have survived unscathed.
Russ K

Congratulations, especially on the choice of tea - my favourite !!!

Why would my stash of marmite be in America? That would cause my sandwich-making to take a bit of a long time.
It's here in the UK.

I agree, I love marmite, but how has the forum become a sad place recently? (Personally I thought it was alright)
-
With Carl's resignation and a number of people snapping at each other, it hasn't had as much fun as it should do, recently.
More Marmite will fix, though.
Marmite fixes everything! (removes bacteria, fungus, barnacles and paint, restores youth, makes hair grow back even in places you never had it before, clears snow from your path, cleans your bath, prevents sunburn, stops people kicking sand in your face, gives you the ability to leap tall buildings, wrestle poodles and win. Yes, I have seen Mr Appollo).
-
Maybe a thread of Marmite Jokes would be the answer??
Don't know any myself though!!

What's hot, brown and steamy and comes out of Cowes?

Milk??

Isle of White ferry, serving Marmite on toast.

The toast on that ferry is more likely to be cold and limp and certainly not "Hot and Steaming"

Yeah, but I gt a Marmite joke out of it!
And I did once get a piece of HOT buttered toast on that ferry. (and a round of applause, I think).

Well yes Carl leaving and people snapping at each other havn't exactly been great, i wouldnt say its a sad place to be. but earwell, Opinions differ. Although I agree Marmite will fix everything, brilliant stuff.

You'll die long before that happens. Supplies are endless. Yeast multiplies rapidly.
It's also pretty quick at long division and Calculus.

I was just going to say that the last time I saw tose things was when I was teaching my 3 year old daughter to count and build things with coloured bricks (those wooden blocks).
But she liked to dip them in Marmite and eat them, so we taught her to count the number of times she chewed each mouthful.

I haven't had a beard since Christmas. I shaved it off then. So you must be looking at one of the older robots.

And here is the picture that proofs what Terry wrote about his beard.

I hadn't had my Marmite, which is why I looked so rough...

Ok, how many Jahre Vikings with marmite in tanks I need here?
You should be aware that the Vikings will not fight with you.
A clue:
"Russell" is Viking for "red hair" or "red beard". I also suffer from a thickening of the tendons in my hands known as Vikings disease. So, beware the Vikings in your camp. They may be my men...

Monday is Marmite day!!! (And Thursday)
-
Of course, in Marmite land, each week consists of only two days (to keep it simple). Monday and Thursday.
-
The only problem is weeks are a bit like Leap Years, sometimes you have to slip in a slice on Sundays to even things up, Sunday generally being a marmelade day!
:doh: :2thumbs:

I hear by announcce that DIAMANT's Marmonths to take the place of the 12 month standard and be used as 24 months of Marmite

It is also where the Supreme Marmite Evil Lord of the Universe lives. (Selsey, right near the Bill). And me.

Hang on. I'll ask Patrick Moore. He lives across the road. He likes Marmite, so he is trustworthy and intelligent.

The first man on the moon

The world is going to run out of Marmite on 21/12/2012
So THAT'S what the Mayans predicted :o

Here we go again.....

Who the .... woke up this topic together with Marmite monster?! :o

Marmite?

Marmite?
Yes:
Who the *marmite* woke up this topic together with Marmite monster?! :o

It couldn't be helped. Mr Flibble of the Marmite people made me do it. He said if anyone objected I should givem them two lifetimes W.O.M.

Did someone call? :evil:

We should compose the "Marmite" song...

There IS one:
Do you remember the "Skol" song (maybe before your time?)
"Marmite, Marmite, Marmite, Marmite, Marmite, Marmite, Marmite, Mar-mite"
The words take a bit of getting used to but it isn't impossible to learn.

Great News for Marmite Lovers, the Marmite Shop is now open in London's Regent Street:

I think he took some from his home "Marmite Zone" land & ate them illegally in marmite free zone. That's how he's back without a sign of marmite lack.

I was reading (again) Brief history of time, by prof Hawking. He said that prior to the big bang, there was nothing at all. Nothing. Plenty of nothing, but that was it. No God, no Dover - Calais in the same environment.Nothing...
It is sacrilige to say there was a time before Marmite existed. Marmite is the very stuff the universe is made of! The quantum theory of Marmite!

To eat-more-mar-mite.
The universe has been around since marmite oclock and will still be here (despite what Al Bore says) for Marmite of years... So just enjoy life, eat Marmite and read my book "A brief history of Marmite"

But how does marmite get though Schrodinghers Cat condudrum...
Is the marmite Cat dead, alive or in a state of disbelief...
-
The cat just eats the Marmite and doesn't give a stuff about anything else.
except maybe
Dover - Calais in the same environment
-
I just asked "the Cat" (called Suzie and probably lives in the extra-dimensional world of Selsey here with me and my many probable lives and many probable wives in a state of supra-existence. The downside is many probable mother-in-laws, of course).
Suzie said that because of her disbelief in Mr Schrodinger, his existence is only a possibility. Therefore he may have possibly conjectured the theorum, but more probably may not have done so.
Therefore she and her Marmite sandwiches definitely exist.
You, on the other paw, may not.
Remember, the certainty of the probability theorum is uncertain.
PS as one or two of you may know, I have a slight background in astrophysics. Stu, would you be prepared to pay for my copy if I get a response from Stephen?
-
A good thing that I read all this mid-morning, if I had read it early it would have spoilt the marmite breakfast.

Keeping with the theory of indeterminism, it is- as you well know- impossible to state a clear 'yes' or 'no'- but instead only a range of possibilities each with their likely outcome.
For example, the more that one becomes certain that I am going to buy a copy of SSE, the less one can be certain that I will give it to you.
Paradoxically, the more one can be certain that you will have a copy, the less one can be certain that I will be paying for it.
The ultimate theory of grand unified Marmite? I am a tight fisted sod.
(simpler explanation for the thick people: Imagine a box with a jar of Marmite in it. One inserts a Terry in the box for thirty minutes and then removes. Is the jar of Marmite eaten or not eaten or is it in a range of eaten-ness?)
-
I think Stuart gets the majority of votes because he is the Marmite God.
Right, Stuart?
Thank you WM. And Jack of course. I do greatly respect the Marmiteness of Terry and recognise his ability to eat great quanitites of the stuff.
I also recognise that I am the God of Marmite, and very modest about it, and would be pleased to become PM... On the sole proviso that I can become Home Secretary too and complete my other ambition... of bringing back Capital Punishment...
Yes. Capital punishment. NO MARMITE FOR all who live in London, Edinburgh and cardiff.

That sounds like an election campaign. The fact that you need to campaign, like a low-life politician shows that you are not worthy.
Being the true Supreme Ruler of the Marmite, I am of course an absolute dictator. My very thoughts are inviolable law. This proves that I am the one.
Sorry Stu. But you are henceforth banished to Lagness.
Probably. It may be uncertain for you, since your very existence is currently up for grabs.
-
An absolute dictator? After 12 years of them, do you think the people of Great Marmite will stand for any more.
Banish me to Lagness? Huh. Such impudence. I would banish you to Bognor Regis. In summer, in the rain. For a week two weeks. WITHOUT Marmite.
That's what happens to people who disrespect the God of Marmite.

Bognor? I rule that as well. I can see it from my house. But despite that, I have not yet smitten it with custard. Maybe later.
Actually, you seem slightly better than appalling at the divine retribution thing. I may have a job for you here at Marmite Central. (Making a list, checking it twice. Then smiting them)
The hours are awful, the pay is lousy, but you get to smite people, which makes up for it. And of course, all the Marmite you can suck.

You are the Thor of the Marmite world. I cast you down into the eternal pits of damnation (OK. Derby)

To be smitten does not neccessarilly involve violence, nor phsics, whatever that may be. :evil:
You can smite with Thor's Hammer (I can lend mine to you) or someone can be smitten with love, of course (not in my sphere of actions, though).

Marty,
According to some, most of my posts don't make sense anyway! :D
Terry,
Thank you for reminding me to repair the Y key on my laptop (now done). As for using Thor's hammer- no thanks, unless it is for hitting the Y key on m'_' laptop.

Do you mean whats under my shoe. :evil:
That's called a 'pavement' (or boardwalk etc)
Think of it as Maggi-goo.. If you like Maggi, you'll love Marmite ;D
Marmite has no equals. No peers. No comparison.

Gentlement- and tractorman- any 'normal' people reading this might be forgiven for thinking we are just joking about...
As much as I find Capt. Sashas comments unusual, can I suggest that this new member has already not had a great welcome in another topic and there is the possibility that she might just think the lesser of some people... Doesn't reflect well on us, does it?
:angel:
-
Stuart has made an extremely valid point, is it really necessary to abuse and insult other members? I suggest this juvenile and hurtful behaviour stops, NOW.

She doesn't think we're all like CC?

Angus, with great respect to, as always.
As the original author of this topic, I do feel a certain amount of 'moral' responsibility for its content. So I have to say that I don't think there is necessarily any malice intended by anyone.
The problem is that new members who don't know everyone humour, or some of the forum standing jokes- IE Marmite- can easily be offended and possibly quit the forum.
So, chaps, we all (myself included) really need to think about *WHO* we post these comments to- we all understand eachother (sort of), but new members don't.
-
To anyone who doesn't know,
Don't mind us, we're all mad!
Welcome to the forum!
I'm sorry If I offended anyone.

Hmm...
It appears the Marmite king has left us..???
-
He has indeed... :(
He will return... ;D
Edit:
Okay not Stu then
Odd the Marmite Eating Terry has dissapeared...?
-
The whole Marmite clan has disappeared...
It's a mass extinction!
-
You would have thought he would have said goodbye... :-\
-
They had no time, a Marmite Volcano exploded, and they were fried to extinction.
They had no chance.
-
Hmm...

No. I am here. Although briefly as I'm on 'roaming ISP' rates at £lots per mb.
As for the false King of Marmite. The pretender to the throne of Marmitesville- a wise man say never judge a rusty ship hull by the shine of its paint.

NICE ! ;D

You can´t paint a ship with Marmite though! To sticky! 8)

There's no I in ShipSim..(well, not that many anyway)
Hope your voyage is going "swimmingly".. Keep us up to date.. :)

Hope you're enjoying yourself Stu! :2thumbs:

He never told us what ferry he was on :doh:

He'll probably be going on every ferry except the Pride of Hull, Pride of Rotterdam, Pride of Kent, Pride of Canterbury, Pride of Dover, Pride of Burgundy, Pride of Calais, Pride of Bruges, Pride of York, Norbank, Norbay, European Causeway and European Highlander... ::)
Sounds about right

So are you on a ferry now then Stu?

it might surprise you, Mr Nathan, that I do have a commercial licence... Although no, I do not drive them, other than very very occasionally when we have to move a unit about... So, you are HALF right1

Not unless you can find a way to get a ferry to Doncaster, no... :(
Back of to Brugge on Sunday, then Brussels on Monday... Oh how I love to go and be lectured by people who have absolutely no knowledge of what they speak and have no useful input on the planet but have simply got to be listened to, applauded, hailed and bowed to just because they convinced several thousand stupid people to put a cross next to their name and give them the title of M.E.P. which as we all know stands for Mostly Evil Pratts... (some words- all three- changed to avoid breaching forum rules).
Still, it is a good excuse to have a few days in Bruxelles and claim it all back in taxes (so now that muppet brown is denied my taxes so he can not pay to his Bruxelles MEP chums...) Oh I do love capitalism ;)
-
hehe OK
Well have fun in Bruxelles :thumbs:

TFM- I have known you long enough to spot your feeble attempt at sarcasm... By repeating the name of the place I suspect you are commenting on its spelling... That is the local spelling, you know. People quite often criticise me for referring to places by their local name...
...But I expect Johnny foreigner coming here to call, say, London as London, not Londres, or ZeLondon or Londonski- so I think it only right I call Johnny foreigner cities by their local name.
But living in Douvres, you should know that.

Oh sorry, TFM. I retract my comment.
There isn't so much wrong with spelling something in your local language when you are local- but when on an international forum with lots of Johnny foreigners then they don't understand ;D
Seriously, it is just trying to show respect for the country you are visiting AND it shows that you are educayted, inteligunt and cleva.

TFM, this really isn't on. You can't wait until I am gone before talking about Marmite and then stop it when I get back...
Or has the false pretender been back?

Marmite can cure any problem.
Global warming? Spread it out and it will absorb the heat as it is dark. Globe is warmed
World famine? Marmite is a by-product of other products and is plentiful
World wars? Deprive the enemy of Marmite and they'll surrender quickly enough

Chris, don't disrespect Marmite. OK? Don't draw funny cartoons about Marmite, or write disrespectful stories about Marmite. In fact treat Marmite as the GOD of ALL Spreads.
Ralphy, you will be converted. Resistance is pointless. If it takes 1,000 years, the word of Marmite will NOT be stopped.

Righto, and Danish on this forum? Come hither and answer for your crime against Marmite!
You think "those" cartoons a couple of years back got you into trouble? Huh. You haven't seen anything yet! The forces of Marmite WILL take over the world and form the Nation of Marmite under Marmiteans.
(for the sake of the professionally offended numpties this is only in jest. The Danes brought us Carlsberg so they can't be ALL that bad... They just need help, not war!)
(though I might nick the Copenhagen Mermaid and ransom it back... for a few jars of Marmite)

I will have to stop having Lurpak butter on my toast, with Marmite on top of course. :doh: ;D

Marmite.... That most British of things. As British as a London Routemaster bus. As British as HM Queen.

Marmite in Denmark is a bit lower on the agenda.. ;D

Oh dear! That sounds like this is going to a political discussion. I've had enough of them for this month ;)
(So I shall just leave it to say that it goes without saying that I like the good people of Europe- just not your politicians (like ours here) and your anti-Marmite policy!)
Actually, there really ARE people here that think "all foreigners are the same"... And apart from having one thing in common- that they usually speak better English than people here- this isn't true.

It is the original Marmite foodtype which gave its name to the actual cooking bowl, which in turn gave its name to THE worlds greatest food.

This meant to be small talk, it turned into a chat lounge, 38 pages and rising :o :o, gotta be honest first time I tried Vegemite it tasted like dish washing liquid

So Sorry Stuart, If I Type Like This Then I Won't Make The Same Mistake Again! :D
I miss Marmite, how about instead of picking up on my lack of capitalisation you actually do something to solve the problem and get up off your backside and post me a jar?
:D :D
-
I DID try that, Clanky. Unfortunately the post office says that unless Marmite has its own passport, it's not allowed to leave the Country.
The FCO says there's a very real risk that without Marmite controls, it might make a break for Denmark.
Haha- it would make an interesting challenge to get Marmite to you anyway. I suppose I could tie it to a 'sea'gull and say "that way" and get it dropped onboard.
-
Further to my above post, it has come to my attention that several thousand jars of Marmite are being detained in a Prisoner of Jar camp in Denmark, known as stalag jar 3.
HOWEVER! I am reliably informed that at least 200 jars are planning to tunnel out and head for neutral Sweden. One jar, whom we shall call "Steve McMarmite" is planning to ride over a barbed wire fence on a motorbike.
He said that Marmite in the camp are in good spirits, but spread a little thin. He said that "What people will call the battle for marmalade is over. The battle for Marmite is about to begin. We shall fight them on the toast, we shall fight them on the sandwiches. We shall fight them on the bread rolls and on the crackers and we shall never, never surrender. And if it should happen- which for a moment I do not believe- that the forces of Danish stupidity overtake our jars then I am ever confident that the masses of Marmite supporters in the whole world will rise up in protest."
He then went on to say "and if the Marmite Empire should last for 1,000 years, THIS will be our finest hour."
-
To spread or NOT to spread. THAT is the question.
For it is better to have spread and eaten than to never have spread before.
Shall I compare thee to a yeasty spread?
Some useful proverbs
1. A rolling Marmite jar gathers no moss
2. A Marmite jar waits for no man
3. Do to Marmite what you would have Marmite do to you.
BTW, Clanky, is there any rules on ships for lifeboats that say "Spambot and Marmite first"?
-
Surprisingly there is not all that bad news

Yes, OK. Thanks for that. And just what has YOUR opinion got to do with the ongoing crusade for world domination by Marmite?
Marmite WILL inherit the world. There will be a second coming of Marmite. (when people have recovered from the first). Marmite has sacrificed itself to be eaten to take the sins of the food eating world.

It all started a long time ago.. ;)

WARNING TO ALL SEA GOING VESSELS IN THE AREA BETWEEN NAPOLI AND TOULON.
There are reports of unusally large jars of Marmite Spambot which may pose harm to shipping. REMEMBER that only 1/8th of a jar of Marmite is visible above the surface of the sea.
The meteorological associations state that they are surprised to find this many Marmitebergs this far south at this time of year.
Marmite jars can and will clogg bow thrusters, damage propellors and may cling onto the hull (also known as Marmiticals). On the bright side, Marmite- if captured in a large net- can be used to grease the main bearings on propellor shafts and winch gear for anchor chains.

Ah glad to see that, going to Bilbao next month with Brittany and glad to know I won't starve en route!!

Urgh! Mike, you're going on the c(*)ap finished?
That thing? The one with the big hole at the back? Who'd make a ship with a big hole in it and then stick it across the E Atlantic?
I even wonder of the wisdom of putting Do-Ca ferries with no aft superstructure- but into the Bay?
No wonder the Captain always sounds so cheerful when arriving- probably amazed to do so.
-
That's why the Marmite is there, the seagoing version is known as Marinite!
-
Can someone tell Mike that I'm not 'talking' to him- going on that floating barge instead of campaigning outside deeble towers for the Pride back.
-
Mike, Stuart says he's not.....
oh nevermind.

The reason I have to go on the so called barge is because you blocked the access to deeble towers and the passengers couldn't get access, that's why all Pride was lost.
:doh: :doh: :doh:

So what you are saying then Mike is that Stuart is single handedly responsible for the demise of the Pride of Bilbao?
For shame sir, for shame! :D

He is right now becoming a nervous wreck I am sure... :doh:

The ss helen deeble is an under powered wreck that is well out of its depth and too far from shore. It needs sending to alang ASAP.
THAT, gentlemen is why the PoB was lost.

He spent too much time looking at the PoB and not enough time travelling on it - that's the REAL reason!!
