cross country taste experience!

[TdC]

The Seel has called my vegemite bluff!

I have a tube of the brown pasty horror that is Vegemite that I got in New Zealand. Tohtori, being a crazy Fin, is willing to taste it so I'm going to send it to him to sample.

While Finnish import laws may actually protect ickle Seel from the vileness that is Vegemite, or a drug-dog may smell it through the plastic and packaging and die and it be incinerated by the police while Tohto gets locked up in a maximum security prison.

So, Damini, if you're willing, please send Mr Seel a wee pot of Marmite so he can sample that as well and tell us which one he likes best (if he's still able to function after tasting both Vegemite and Marmite)


Egads, picking the best taste out of those two is like choosing which is most pleasing out of a)being shagged in the pooper by a mange infested donkey or b)having one's external privities chewed off by a rabid baboon

You've done both of those Teedles, which did you prefer? :kissit:

 

[TdC]

well, the baboon's bristly chin, snorting, slavering and general unpleasantness reminded me a bit of my gf when she's going through the women's mysteries thing every month, so I'm afraid I'll have to go with what I know

 

[Sharma]

Right, sorry to go off-topic this soon in to the thread.

But i've finally cracked and i'm starting to find TdC's avatar disturbing and somewhat threatening.

That face...staring at me every time I browse this forum...it's gaze slowly burning into my head...

 

[TdC]

I'm watching [highlight]you[/highlight], Sharma

 

[Trem]

This will probably happen about as quick as Teedles sending me Wills sock.

 

[TdC]

I think Will stole his sock back when last he visited Trem I really did mean to send it, but I'm afraid that the laze just took over and it never happened. I did get Will a pair of replacement socks though!

 

[Utini]

Please send Mr Seel a wee pot of Marmite.

Swear i'm going dyslexic as i read that as "Please send Mr Seel a Marmite pot of Wee". Having said that, who would eat anything someone from IRC sent them, i certainly wouldn't.

 

[TdC]

one doesn't have to do nasty things to a tube of vegemite. it's rancid enough as it is uke:

 

[Chilly]

is this just going to degenerate into us all sending seel random crap we find down the back of the sofa?

 

[Utini]

Dunno, but a pot of crap named marmite is distinctly plausible.

 

[Ch3tan]

I think tris- should send teh seel the contents of his keyboard.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Ah yes, i did take on the challenge of both Dams and TdC.

Mostly the reasons are:

A: Never tasted and want to sip from the arse of the devil.
B: Prove in some f*cked up way that i am indeed...f*cked up.
C: Entertain the forums by posting a long and boring write about it(pictures included).

It's all in the name of good

 

[taB]

Good luck to you!

I love Marmite, although I draw the line at mining for the stuff.

Vegemite is evil as is anything with vege at the start!


Ben.

 

[Wij]

I just tried Vegemite an hour ago. Not bad. A bit spicier than Marmite but with an odd aftertaste. Overall I prefer Marmite but it's still good

 

[Utini]

I prefer vegemite, not as strong/harsh as marmite and a bit thicker.

 

[Damini]

Toto, has that marmite still not arrived?

 

[TdC]

he's been very quiet so possibly it has


as Trem predicted, I still have to send the vegemite (because I'm lazy and forgetful). Seeleh please pm me your address again because I lost it when Will threatened me with GBH for having a full inbox

 

[Damini]

TOTO!! Tell me about the marmite. Did it ever get to you?

 

[Damini]

I'm going to keep bumping this till I get a response.

 

[cHodAX]

Vile stuff, both of them

 

[Deebs]

Marmite is the bollox. Not really keen on vegimite.

I have to put at least a thick layer on my toast, crumpets (it melts inside) before I really enjoy it.

 

[taB]

Handy bonus last week: having failed to secure a Guinness Marmite when it was offered, my sister found one in Waitrose and got it for me.

Taste test will happen on Friday.

 

[Damini]

Harumph.

 

[caLLous]

Heh I thought you would dig this up.

 

[taB]

Consider this as marmite loving spam!

 

[old.Tohtori]

Damini, apologies apologies.

I was sure i posted about this, guess not.

But yes, it arrived on winter, shame the pictures are lost but, in summary:

Tube like package arrived via postfemale. Hot one.
I was quite sure it had anthrax in it, or some such.
Didn't, well....

To say it short, it's an aquired taste i'm sure

I aquired one pot of it though. So someones mite didn't deliver.

 

[TdC]

yes, that would be mine. I lost the pm with your address, and you never replied to my request for more addresses

 

[old.Tohtori]

yes, that would be mine. I lost the pm with your address, and you never replied to my request for more addresses

Really?

 

[TdC]

maybe. this happened like...two whole years ago
