Another: in "The Last Battle," King Tirian of Narnia shares food with two children from our world. The book describes two egg sandwiches, two cheese sandwiches, and "two with some kind of paste in them" which the king probably wouldn't have eaten if he weren't so hungry. As an American child I assumed the paste was either tuna salad or peanut butter. I'd never even heard of #Marmite, if indeed that's what Lewis intended it to be. It could be some other British sandwich filling of which I have no inkling.

can one use Marmite or Vegemite in a microbiological culture medium? how about Bovril

Marmite is such a divisive foodstuff that its slogan is "Love it or hate it." @[email protected]'s Kristen Hartke explains why we should all have a jar of it in our pantries, and shares recipes for everything from grilled cheese to coffee cake, all of which have a dollop of the salty yeast extract. We want to know, do you love it or hate it?

I have given up on Marmite after Unilever’s behaviour. A despicable company. But I do like Marmite - any suggestions for another non Unilever alternative in the UK? And I will summarise.

Oh dear, it's #Thursday. The #Marmite day of the week. You either love it or loathe it, for some - much like the maligned #AustinAllegro for which we stock engine bay stickers, which is nice - https://www.miniphernalia.co.uk/131-stickers-for-allegro

So we're heading away in less than 2 weeks so we're making our way through the food that will go off while away.
