Marmite is probably the most horrible thing I have ever put i my mouth.

[Kaijuclock]

I was just minding my own business at my friends house, and he breaks some out "You have to try this shit" He says "It is freaking awesome dude!". Now I'm adventurous when it comes to food, there isn't alot that I can't keep down (unless it has a fucked texture) so I decide to go for it. One, horribly small spoon full ever, I am scrubbing at my tongue with a clean spoon, trying to get rid of every bit of flavor that was left.

Seriously, this shit right here.


This is the nightmare my tastebuds never wish to endure again. This is bitter, this shit is real bitter. It is the essence of bitter, in a tiny, ugly, spoon full. How do people like this stuff? How this this possible?

vegemite is good, never had marmite.

[EnglishClock]

Marmite is a delicious treat, if yer manly enough, son.  Try having it with cheese on toast. Also, the marmite flavoured crisps known as Twiglets are fantastic.

Vegemite is inferior.

[Smegheadclock]

I haven't had marmite since I was a kid. There was probably a reason I only had it on toast.

[EnglishClock]

how dare you remove the hunk face from my quote and make it seem like I was being kind of sincere

[EnglishClock]

wait what

i think there's some kind of mix up here

i love marmite

it is delicious

i just meant originally that you need to not be a big sourpuss in order to get passed the bitterness and enjoy the taste

Actually, I found Marmite at my local Weagmans (after thinking it was banned from the US for so long) and to be completely honest, it's actually quite tasty if you eat it right.  Obviously it's going to be terrible if you eat a spoonful of it, it's not even recommended to put that much on an entire piece of toast.  Get a slice of toast and spread a thin layer of Marmite on it and it's actually enjoyable.  It's like a salty savory slice of toast.

I might try it like that, if I can bring myself to try it again. It was seriously horrible to me.

double post sorry

[Chalk Clock]

We have some pictures of my face "enjoying" my first taste of Vegemite but i cant find them.. it was the most horrible thing i had ever put in my mouth, but you get used to it. i think its probably the same for Marmite. English has been eating it all of his life so his taste buds are all dead.

You guys are fucking wimps.

Also: English food is pretty shit but American food is non-existent, it's just a cobbled together collection of other cultures' left overs and grotesque chemical pastes. If the food of whatever immigrants happen to be living in your country qualifies as local cuisine then English food is fucking fantastic.



In conclusion: eat a dick

[Munglai]

But that's how all your food started. Over time, it became british, specifically the longer it was boiled.

Your knowledge of anthropology is deeply disappointing.

PRAISE THE FUCKIN QUEEN (NAH BUT SERIOUSLY SHE IS KIND OF A BITCH I HATE HER BALLS)
MARMITE 4 EVA THO YEAA

I've got a bone to pick with american food defenders in general. If there's any country that can't condescend the British on their food it's America.

[Slurpee]

agree with the second part disagree with the first
somebody's obv never had gumbo

french-influenced cajun, hawaiin, mediteranean and oceanic-influenced californian, tex-mex, regional u.s. pizza styles, the philly cheese steak- all are the illegitimate children of ethnic and national foods being carried over by immigrants (or in hawaii's case natives) and adapting to the region of the u.s. they situated in and the people they fed
delicious food is where the nation-of-immigrants model succeeded unquestionably

also soul food
came out of the culture that arose from descendants of african-american slaves with w/ indigenous influences, and it's basically heart attack on a plate. can't get much more american than that.
black people own

I don't know if the British food over there is different then the British food over here or not. But as far as I can tell It consists of "meat" wrapped in pastry and covered in tomato sauce. That's it. That is all they eat.
Eating British food is like taking a bite out of a bag of flour.

[HeinekenClock]

I think every country has a food item that's absolutely horrendous but all the natives love it because they grew up with it.
I mean I fucking love this shit:

Frisian dried sausage


Liquorice


Snert (pea soup w/ lotsa meat)


Yet I wouldn't think of ever serving this to someone who's not Dutch because that's just cruel.
I've never had Marmite but I think it's one of those food items you have to take in very small amounts and try it in combination with things and after a while it grows on you.

[buttplug]

Snert: the only food that looks exactly like it sounds
