Best Thing Ever

squeezy-squeeze-me.jpgIt's called "Marmite Squeeze Me". It will forever change the nature of my morning slice of toast. It is not, as yet, available in Ireland. Should anyone in the UK wish to purchase me a sqeeeezy jar of Marmite, I will re-emburse you to the tune of TEN of your English Pounds (or Scottish poooounds).

In other Marmite-news, the last ever 57g jar of The Yeasty Goodness™ was recently sold on eBay UK for £235. That works out at a little over four pounds a gram. That's some good Marmite right there.

Comments

but... but... but... does this mean an end to the glass jars? say it's not so!

(I always kind of assumed you HATED toast. Can't think why.)

PS will happily send you a squeezy marmite if I see one.

I wonder how that compares to drugs?

God I love marmite.

I think that of it's in a squeezy bottle people will be way to liberal with the amount they spread on, you know like when someone who doesn't eat Marmite makes you Marmite on toast? They ALWAYS put more than necesary on! What's wrong with the glass jar, I say BOYCOTT SQUEEZY MARMITE!! I crave Marmite, I even bring it on holidays with me, I call it a lifelong addiction.

I think Babs' comment answers your question about drugs Adrian (Marmite is addictive). And to further answer it, the eBay Marmite is still cheaper.

The glass jars will still be available (just like the glass bottles of Heinz ketchup), all except for the baby 57g jar.

I think the squeezy Marmite will introduce a whole new generation to the joys of yeast extract. MARMITE ROCKS!

(And Annie, I will send my address to your Slammie at Gmail account. Nice one!)

I just joined the marmite fan club, go me!! www.marmite.com its brillo, there is a section for people who love it and another for people who hate it and recipes and everything. The best site ever!!

Marmite doesn't alter mental state so cant be a drug.

I think I'm glass over squeeze myself. Things are better hard.

I think that the squeeze is just lazy to be honest, what will happen when you have nearly run out? You won't be able to spend 10 minutes scraping it out of the jar with a knife, the simple pleasures in life are being stolen from us by this squeezy thing!!

Actually I cant be asked to scrape.

I just don't like squeezy. Glass is class, squeeze is tacky.

Would you go so far as to say 'Glass is Class, Squeezy is Cheesy' though?

Now that's a soundbite. Or a Vox-Pop. Or something cool and trendy and hip. Possibly.

I found this on t'internet:

The Joy of Marmite

I spread my Marmite sparingly, upon my buttered toast
Of all the things to put on bread, it's what I like the most.

Its flavour always feels warm, although it isn't hot
--Caustic like a chili sauce, it certainly is not

Approved by vegetarians, and good for your nutrition
Of what my Mum called savoury, the very definition.

Though made from lowly byproducts--leftover brewing ooze
It is so reminiscent of the finest of French stews

Such grand associations were surely what was meant
When so named by clever brewers from Burton on the Trent

Precisely what exquisite yeast do Marmite makers use
To lend such gourmet qualities to brewing residues?


-- A.R.D. Pepper, March 1993
