Spoken like a true bachelor

 

dude you went thru all the trouble to buy a jar of liquid goo and you didn't pick up a $1.09 loaf of bread, thats it you are fired as the f150 online taste tester.

 

There is a whole foods in my service area, i'll try to stop by and pick up some tonight. Now i miss the damn stuff

 

Yeah I was so excited about the goo that I totally forgot about the bread. Another problem would be the fact that I dont have a toaster!

I keep trying the stuff and I just cant compare it to anything. It truly is a weird flavor.

 

what are you 18 and in college

 

Ok, lets clear some things up here.

1. As Odin said, I am widely traveled. Today, I am in Singapore. Tomorrow, I will be in Thailand for a week. Thereafter, Dubai for one week then back to Houston where I am currently based again. I have traveled extensively in Louisiana and the rest of the USA.
I think you may have missed my point. Sure, there's regional variations like Tex-Mex and Cajun but I'm talking about supermarkets and fast food which where the majority shop.
A Burger King in Tx tastes like a Burger King in Montana. Wal-Mart, Kroger et al go for the lowest common denominator. The cheese is bland as is the bread etc.
I have friends from Houston who come and stay with us in England and now I have to take stuff back for them that you can't find locally.

2. There's no beef in Marmite. It's a Yeast extract. Vegetarian, in fact.
The beef version is called Bovril. You make a hot drink from it.



3. You eat Marmite on toast (spead thinly). It's full of Vitamin B.

If you've never tried it, it tastes similar to Twiglets.

 

what if we have never even heard of twiglets

 

I got a bunch of twiglets all over my yard from the last storm.


Last time I ate food in Dubai I about crapped my pants trying to get back to base.

 

Okay a hot drink of Borvril sounds like i don't even know what that sounds like. Thats freaking gross a beef flavored drink....

 

OK so let me get this right

marmite is rendered black yeast

bovril is basically liquid beef bullion that Brits make a hot drink out of and here in the us we would most likely use it as a gravy or Au jus for roast beef

 

Never heard of beef bullion cubes? I used to have hot beef and chicken flavored drinks as a kid. That was here in the States. It's not that strange. And it tastes good.

 

I was just thinking that myself the only time we did it was when we had a sore throat or were congested and mom did not want to give us tea cause of the caffine


now lets hear the excuse for the marmite

 

I've never tried Marmite or vegimite. It can't taste any worse than coffee does the first time. Or beer. I'm sure it's an aquired taste... I think caviar tastes nasty, too.

 

Im right there with you on the salty fish periods

 

I am 32 and live by myself. If I get hungry I can order Italian, chinese, mexican, american, and just about any other food I want and it will be delivered to my door in 30 minutes. Living in a downtown area has its perks. And my girlfriend lives .9 miles down my street and she cooks for me atleast 2-3 times a week. The other nights I am with her we are going to fancy restaurants that I hate and she loves.

So to answer your question no. I am not in college. I graduated from college a while ago. I am sure most of you guys have your wife cooking and takign care of your meals. Not me. My fridge is for beer,diet coke (for the beam), condiments, occasionally some left overs, and Jim Beam in the freezer.
