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!

saltydog · « **Reply #476 on:** September 07, 2008, 14:46:11 »

I just checked the "official" date on the jar, Terry
To be honest, a jar of Marmite never stays on my shelf that long..

TerryRussell · « **Reply #477 on:** September 07, 2008, 14:54:31 »

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..

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.

Great,but remember that it just needs a thin smear. Not
like peanut butter.

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

TerryRussell · « **Reply #489 on:** September 08, 2008, 19:45:27 »

Marmite and chocolate sandwiches! Now there's thought...

Have to use white chocolate though to get a colour contrast.........

What is the preferred tea to wash down the Marmite or is there another non-alcholic beverage that is better?

Russ K

CaptainMike1 · « **Reply #492 on:** September 09, 2008, 14:37:44 »

English Breakfast Tea with milk and sugar

Traddles · « **Reply #493 on:** September 09, 2008, 15:49:22 »

The delicate flavour of Earl Grey goes down well with a Marmite buttie. Milk, but definitely no sugar.

TerryRussell · « **Reply #494 on:** September 09, 2008, 16:21:36 »

I'm fond of a good mug of coffee with marmite sarnies. White, one sugar.

RJK · « **Reply #495 on:** September 12, 2008, 18:01:28 »

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.

Did you enjoy the experience?

RJK · « **Reply #497 on:** September 12, 2008, 18:17:31 »

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.
