Marmite eh?, a certain lister (who shall remain nameless), who after
tasting this delicious substance (following my preparation guidelines
and therefore not spreading it like chocolate spread like most marmite
amateurs) asked me if it was a "joke". I insisted that it wasn't a joke
and that's what we all eat in the UK (some of us anyway).
Ahhh well, she's the one missing out! :)

Hershey is horrid... then again Cadbury's isnt that great... but it's
not as bad as the "cheap advent calendar" taste of Hershey bars.
