Manna-Marmite-Or What Is It

Tommy’s battle is in the bulge. So much marmite in his pantry. Celebrating, he does indulge. Souper Choir laments in chantry. What is this edible cement? I’ve not the wherewithal to find. Is it a sin not to try? Hell-bent? To Tommy, I better be kind. I opened the black jar with the bright yellow lid for marmite cause and Tommy all I saw was thee reflected in the jar - your jaws. I think I’ll skip the marmite here. I need to chew on edibles of real nutrition without fear. Cost of marmite’s incredible. 1/7/2022

Hello Kim ... it's like tar spread on a slice of bread and butter. Irresistible but I prefer vegemite as I guess that's what I was brought up on - thank you Kim - Lindsay

Hello! I see you tried Marmite. I've never heard of it. I'm not sure if you can buy that in the US. I'd be willing to try it, though. Blessings and excellent writing. Debra

Thanks, Tom! Glad you enjoyed! My daughter makes a casserole called veg-all casserole. Dynamite on the vegamite.
