    Isn't that like a beefy thingy? I looked it up and the dictionary says marmite is " a metal or earthenware cooking pot with a cover, usually large and often having legs". But I have heard of some food thing by that name as well. What is it exactly Malizz? Thank you for your reply and Happy Sunday! :)

    The beefy thing is Bovril. Marmite may look similar but is a proprietory yeast extract with a sharp taste, you either liked or loathed. When I was wee, I fattened myself up on Virol, a malt extract. The nearest I got to Nutella was peanut butter, which of course lacks the cocoa.

    It's a thick chocolate hazelnut spread Zack and it's usually in the grocery store by the jams, jellies, nut butters. It's quite good and very addictive. I had a friend who spent a few months in Europe and she said that was the spread she saw everywhere in people's homes. Like Americans have peanut butter Europeans have Nutella. Now I have never been to Europe so that is second-hand info. I never verified it!  Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday!  :)

    I like nutella, but keep it as a treat..  what I like most about it, or used to, was that it came in a jar that could be reused as a drinking glass :)

    FWIW I like Marmite too although allegedly Marmite divides the nation; you either love it or hate it

    That is hazelnuts right?  No never tried it. I did make a pesto a few weeks ago using hazelnuts instead of any other nuts.
