My Mate Marmite

[John]

Has anyone seen the October issue of model military international? it's got a great use for Marmite, I've not tried it yet because there is no one in the house that likes it, but next time I'm at the supermarket I'm going to grab a jar, I can't post the whole article because of copyright but I'm sure they won't have a problem with a picture, here's the sort of thing you can do with it



Grab the mag it's well worth a read

That looks amazing - I'm not sure how it would age though - I'm sure it'd soon growing a nice little colony of something on the more marmitey parts.

Makes a nice change from the normal application on a piece of toast though!

sorry i just could not bare the smell of the stuff !!! and the other problem is that Char adores the bloody stuff and would probably have "Tiger on toast"

Ok.. for us uninformed Yanks.... What in the name of all that is holy is Marmite? I could look it up, but I would rather hear what you all got to say about it... :thinking:

Hello all, Bob what else can I say other than YEUCH. :smile11: An extract of Brewers Yeast fermented and ... :smile11: :smile11: Check it out at http://www.accomodata.co.uk/marmite.htm for the history and calorific values if you can stand it!! Too much for me. Give me nicely distilled whisky every time

:scotland: :great: :beer2: (sory could not see a glass of whisky raised to toast you)

cheers

From what I gather, the rust colored oils may even taste better.

Well shiver my timbers,I thought that I had heard it all ? who would have thought of Marmite as a rusty finish maker,we do not have any in the cupboard otherwise I would give it a try on a test paint hack model.

Excellent idea.

Bob Let me tell you that even radio active sludge tastes better than marmite (It is the devils own excretia)

[wonwinglo]

It is the only advertisement which shows somebody saying 'Yuck' to a food product ! you either love it or hate the stuff,you are missing nothing in the States with this stuff.

Tastes a bit like axle grease that has turned rancid.

[Guest]

What about "Vegamite" from Oz...?

ROFL... now that is a visual I won't soon forget. It has officially made it to the list of things never to try. And that list is very short. I am just surprised I have not heard of it before.
