For all you Marmite fans

Never again will you be at a loss to get out the last scrapings from the jar. Marmite have now "invented" ::) a scraper to help you all out...............Particularly helpful to me as my bail conditions means I am not allowed to use metal cutlery......... ;D ;D ;D

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

As a dedicated Marmite Enthusiast, what a wonderful idea...

...except that we have to buy it!... >:(...!

They had two choices:

(a) Give it away for free with every jar.

(b) Change the shape of the bloody jar to make it easier to get at the last clinging morsels with the aid of an ordinary knife/teaspoon!.

Can't stand the stuff myself. Image

13 quid sounds a tad expensive for a 125g pot of the muck* with a special knife to eat it with. Still, I suppose some peeps with more money than sense will be daft enough to buy it.::) http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_311100725299

..... ;D.....!

I really like it... :-*....

Marmite has one of those; "tastes", that removes the top of your head, and makes your eyes water, when it reaches the tip of your tongue...

...its magic!.... [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]...!

Far too expensive for the special knife, tho.... :o...!

Maybe we will get one free, with the next issue of the Daily Mail... :D...!

Paul....Marmiteable... 8-)...!

P.S...half a teaspoonful is wonderful, added to a Gravy preparation... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Ever try 'sambal'?
Trust me,don't store a large jar of the oelek brand(or however you spell it) for a long time,after about a year 3 teaspoons will be enough for a large bowl of rice. ::) ;D
