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.
I was trying to picture my wife actually cooking...

I am not saying I cant cook. Occasionally I will go to the grocery store and make something like chicken scallopini or picadillo with black beans and rice. I knwo how to make a lot of Cuban and Italian dishes from watching my mother cook as a child. She taught me all kinds of recipes and she is a VERY good cook being born in Italy. They teach women how to cook there at a yound age. But unless its for soem occasion or I am really bored I wont cook. Its just too much food that goes to waste and it costs more for me to cook my own meals than it does to order my food or go out to eat. If I buy groceries they go bad.

So has anyone else tried the marmite? I still have yet to try it on toast but I will let you know as soon as I try it.

Itlalians have a spread that goes on toast also. Its 100% better than Marmite.

I am going to start another thread about it.

For some reason Twiglets, which I've never heard of until now, made me remember a Phillipino woman I used to work with who would bring in bags of this stuff called "cuttlefish snacks".. It's exactly what it sounds like, dessicated, salted... cuttlefish.

They all swore by the crap, but it basically tasted like toasted salt. Little bitty squids, yes.

Diversity is all good until you have to eat their goddamned food..
