Unilever in talks to sell-off Marmite to the Yanks!

How far down the ingredients list will they stick the chlorinated chicken?!

"FTSE 100 giant Unilever has confirmed it is in talks to offload its foods business, which includes iconic brands like Hellman’s and Marmite.

The mayonnaise-maker said it has received an offer from US seasoning manufacturer McCormick and is now in discussions with the firms." !!!

$MKC missed Q1 EPS by $0.04 — $0.60 vs $0.64 consensus — and is down 8.67% premarket. Revenue landed broadly in line at $1.80B. The culprit: commodity inflation, tariff costs, and ERP timing expenses. The Iran war has reached the grocery aisle. Full-year guidance of $3.05–$3.13 maintained — but the market isn't buying it yet.

#McCormick’s have sent me a $5 gift certificate after I told them there was something seriously out of whack with the garlic proportion in their spice mix. 🏆

Makes me think I was not alone in getting way too much #garlic in my #Greek seasoning mix. (Yes, I use it regularly. Garlic ratio was wrong this last time)
