Well I'm going for a god Beef dripping meself like..........


Heathen but the taste is incredible

definitely marmite

gotta now folks, catch you later

Well Beef dripping is VERY similar

d'you know I haven't had beef dripping since I lived at home with my parents but I can remember it being pretty yummy

I could be tempted to ditch the marmite if there were some beef dripping on offer ......

I'm still trying to figure what beef dripping is

Well first Roast a side of beef................................




Oh




First take out a mortgage and buy a side of beef

And you'd want that for breakfast already ?

You betcha!

The concentrated taste is amazing


with Salt and Pepper obviously

yes, probably. I'm no fan of beef, never was, so I can't quite imagine

Pork? just as good


Lamb is horrible - well Lamb dripping I mean

is great if it's a bit pink


Lord I'm feeling hungry now

With all this mentioning of beef and lamb and it has the reverse result here
Off now for a doze, see you later

Have a good one

Oooh memories! I remember my Dad used to make us dripping sandwiches at Christmas, so I guess ours was turkey dripping? I do remember loving the taste, but now I am grown up, the thought of it simply does not appeal! Maybe I'll try it again this year. As for Marmite - again used to love it when I was a kid, and had not had it for years, then got rather excited when it appeared in our coffee shop with the toast, tried it and hated it! I guess my taste buds changed quite a lot over the years, but I do luuurrvveee Bovril on toast! Wierd huh?

Hi Jem

Dripping - most people assume it's just fat but it really isn't at all

It's odd how tastes change over the years eh! Mind you is it really taste?

A few years ago I lost my sense of smell - [careless I know] - and never found it again - but it's odd when you learn about what
taste (5) v. smell (14500)
really is

And...........I was the same as you with Marmite v. Bovril - but in drinks rather than toast


Is MK still snow free? I've got to drive to J13 shortly

I've once tried our equivalent of marmite and despised it. I guess it's way cheaper to eat a teaspoon of salt with some yeast and spices , but the taste should be the same

No I've always prefered dark marmalade. I've got a jar in the cupboard but it's labelled strong and challenging and I'm a bit scared of opening it

A jar of marmite, or a jar of marmelade ?

Marmalade B'el, do you have it in Germany? Its like jam but made with oranges (or lemon or grapefruit) It's not as sweet as jam. Popular in Scotland.

We can buy orange marmelade here - an import from the UK. I've always hated it

I do like marmalade, but I prefer the one without the rind in it! Funny that, I don't like orange juice with bits in it either - must be something to do with the texture.
