use an imaginary knife to spread it
― jergins, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:19 (sixteen years ago)
aw<3<3 harry on the refrigerator being a bad influence.
i don't know if i ever explained this to you, jj, but the jar of vegemite in the photo was larger than the one i sent you, so harry is probably bigger than you think, though still a scrap.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:22 (sixteen years ago)
JJ got the smaller one?!
― jergins, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:23 (sixteen years ago)
if the foreign lands can not accept our paul bunyan styled butter knives to spread our flapjacks there is no hope for world peace tbh xxpost
― FCK R VWLS (jjjusten), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:23 (sixteen years ago)
no jergins, you both got the same size but for the photo i used my personal jar which i buy in the larger size because i eat it every single day of my life except last wednesday.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:25 (sixteen years ago)
ok for the purposes of perspective:

such sad eyes
― jergins, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:47 (sixteen years ago)
the bovril has sealed itself into an impenetrable unopenable form
― FCK R VWLS (jjjusten), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:48 (sixteen years ago)
after this test was concluded, henry went outside and pooped
― FCK R VWLS (jjjusten), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:49 (sixteen years ago)
not saying, just saying
we didn't mention this upthread, but since neither of them post anymore i think it's okay: after our tasting remy and lingbert had a footrace to the bathroom
― jergins, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:50 (sixteen years ago)
<3 @ all of this.
― tehresa, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:51 (sixteen years ago)
in the vegemite photo henry looks wistful and intrigued but in the marmite one he looks offended and a bit strict, i think that is because you crossed the line, jj.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:54 (sixteen years ago)
hahaha uhoh dark horse contender ROUND THREE BOVRIL:

why would anyone want to eat anything called bovril?!
― tehresa, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:59 (sixteen years ago)
i am so close to calling animal cruelty hotline on you, j.
― tehresa, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:00 (sixteen years ago)
to be fair he also likes the taste of his own junk so i am not sure how that applies to the question at large
― FCK R VWLS (jjjusten), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:00 (sixteen years ago)
we see some sights here also.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:01 (sixteen years ago)
note that JJ's dog only looks suspiciously at the marmite AFTER tasting the vegemite.
― jabba hands, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:39 (sixteen years ago)
what i note is it dawning on henry that jj didn't save the best for last.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 08:42 (sixteen years ago)
biting the bovril pic owns so completely

The most awkward thing when I first started my job here were exchanges like,"Where's the Marmite?""What's Marmite?"
"Where do you have Milo?""What's that?""You're not kiwi, are you."
That and half the people in Auckland are from other parts of the world and ask me for products that I not only have never heard of but aren't available in NZ and send me on a ridiculous scavenger hunt about the store.
― a╓by's (╓abies), Tuesday, 13 October 2009 13:24 (sixteen years ago)
the real winners of this contest: milo and fake jaffas from darrel lea
and jjj's dog trying to swallow the bovril jar
― lxy, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 23:51 (sixteen years ago)

I could use some hot buttered toast with bovril right about now.

this thread should be renamed henry's choice.

(left for some lucky marmite lover to find at the top of the cable car route)
― lxy, Thursday, 15 October 2009 01:45 (sixteen years ago)
omg i hope in the next week i see a facebook status update that says "found a jar of marmite belonging to some ppl with strange names today!!"

the toast in this photo has been spread WAY TOO THICK with double-blind substances
― RAPTOBER (sic), Thursday, 15 October 2009 02:51 (sixteen years ago)
agreed.
shoulda been cut in triangles, not squares
― DAN P3RRY MAD AT GRANDMA (just1n3), Thursday, 15 October 2009 02:57 (sixteen years ago)
Triangles = how the cool mums cut itSquares = how your nanna cuts it

i've suspected all along that the vegemite testing night was a heavyhanded blunderfest.
― estela, Thursday, October 8, 2009 2:24 PM (1 week ago)
― estela, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:11 (sixteen years ago)
we WARNED them, we tried, we did all we could
it was no good
― DAN P3RRY MAD AT GRANDMA (just1n3), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:22 (sixteen years ago)
let's not overlook the central problem, that you guys sent us marmite and vegemite
― jergins, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:24 (sixteen years ago)
xxp that stuff is impossible to spread lightly, way too thick. the bovril spread beter than the other two. maybe travelling over the IDL made them congeal? changing hemispheres caused some kind of hardening reaction?
xp NO ONE warned me about cutting into triangles, btw, therefore i take umbrage at the nanna comment.
― lxy, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:24 (sixteen years ago)
jergins otm
― lxy, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:25 (sixteen years ago)
rong
maybe we should have asked the dudes at the pub to make us a vegemite pizza
― "i find your antics mirthful and infectious" (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:27 (sixteen years ago)
ugh
― jergins, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:28 (sixteen years ago)
maybe you all should have just mailed some pre-spread toast.
― lxy, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:30 (sixteen years ago)
surprised that they didnt really being it was in The Rocks and was full of American tourists (xp)
― "i find your antics mirthful and infectious" (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:30 (sixteen years ago)
personally I think people who cant handle a decent deal of vegemite are totes LAVENDER but i'm a huge fan of salt, I guess
