You either love it or hate it - what's your preference?

I love it, so thought I'd do a poll on it.

This is a pic of the jar - I think you have veggiemite or something over there, not sure about canada though Audra.

 

[AUDRAA]

Ria hun Im not in Canada thats a joke!!!

 

[Ria]

Oh right, I really thought you had heard of it.

I'll tell you what, will try and post some as I have an address over there to post it to - next time you meet or the time after that, then you can try it and then vote on the poll.

You put it on toast or just bread, savoury biscuits, Ryvitas, things like that.

I love it and was just eating some Twiglets and it made me think to do this thread.

I just thought you would know what I was on about lol

Ria hun Im not in Canada thats a joke!!!

[Ria]

Well Peter and Mirage, looks like only you two to vote then.

Bet one of you does and the other doesn't.

Lol I see now. That is so funny. :24: I keep doing that lately with not knowing some things here - especially when ol' Booms says some stuff - never heard certain things called what you call them over there.

Ha ha - that's what I love about it here - always a laugh or two, huh?

[Maritxu]

I love it! The Aussies have veggiemite instead which is a huge thing but is essentially the same thing.

 

[Peter Parka]

You love it or you hate it, Haha! Here's the sort of adverts we get for it!

I knew you would love it Peter! Marmite soldiers are the best, huh?

Oh yes, it is the Aussie's who have veggiemite. I heard it is basically the same as our marmite. Does Sarah like Marmite?

Yes, Brian, defiantely an aquired taste.

 

[Peter Parka]

Sarah hates it, along with her own national spread of veggimite. I guess I like it because I don't have a sweet tooth. I can imagine most Americans would hate it because, no offense, but they do seem to like things to taste sweet, which marmite definately dosen't!
