wilter, Thursday, 15 May 2008 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

jergïns, Thursday, 15 May 2008 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

ruby's evil joy at coming second is still making me lol.

estela, Thursday, 15 May 2008 23:14 (eighteen years ago)

You guys did spread the bovril as per my instructions, right?

Mark C, Thursday, 15 May 2008 23:33 (eighteen years ago)

mark c, i think we like each other now. bovril was like the suture to our ilx wounds.

remy bean, Friday, 16 May 2008 00:16 (eighteen years ago)

that makes me happy!

estela, Friday, 16 May 2008 00:19 (eighteen years ago)

yeah i hope you guys remembered to use it sparingly.... vegemite i've noticed can be put on thicker, but marmite has to be minimal. you should try it with cheese and lettuce on bread.

it is also excellent as bait for eels when applied to rancid meat.

Rubyredd, Friday, 16 May 2008 02:41 (eighteen years ago)

I'm not really into eels atm though.

wilter, Friday, 16 May 2008 02:42 (eighteen years ago)

but rancid meat is ok?

electricsound, Friday, 16 May 2008 02:57 (eighteen years ago)

eels seem to approve of it. and rotten eggs.

Rubyredd, Friday, 16 May 2008 03:06 (eighteen years ago)

Remy, I'm happy with that. Sorry again for being a dick.

So, John Justen, looking forward to your input on this topic!

Mark C, Friday, 16 May 2008 09:49 (eighteen years ago)

"Sorry"?? Call yourself an internet hardman? DOM never says sorry.

Upt0eleven, Friday, 16 May 2008 09:57 (eighteen years ago)

Dom cries himself to sleep at night.

Mark C, Friday, 16 May 2008 10:55 (eighteen years ago)

Marc C marinades his balls nightly in a blend of Bovril and Dom's tears.

Upt0eleven, Friday, 16 May 2008 12:21 (eighteen years ago)

well that was an amusing little musing i could have kept to myself. could have spelled your name right too.

Upt0eleven, Friday, 16 May 2008 12:22 (eighteen years ago)

(must not make "resulting paste" joke)

HI DERE, Friday, 16 May 2008 14:21 (eighteen years ago)

Upt0eleven, Saturday, 17 May 2008 23:16 (eighteen years ago)

John Justen, Saturday, 17 May 2008 23:39 (eighteen years ago)

Rubyredd, Sunday, 18 May 2008 00:18 (eighteen years ago)

GIANT JAFFAS

Sara R-C, Sunday, 18 May 2008 00:31 (eighteen years ago)

I just like writing that. It's too bad it's too late to suggest new usernames for John, though.

Sara R-C, Sunday, 18 May 2008 00:32 (eighteen years ago)

ha

Lingbert, Sunday, 18 May 2008 02:59 (eighteen years ago)

John Justen, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:40 (eighteen years ago)

this

John Justen, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:40 (eighteen years ago)

guest judges - FB, K, others

John Justen, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:41 (eighteen years ago)

how exactly are you going to test them, do you have a recipe or methodology?

estela, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:43 (eighteen years ago)

I am looking forward to hearing the results of this v. v. important test.

Sara R-C, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:44 (eighteen years ago)

lol i am not, i have actually only met one american ever who liked vege/mar/mite, everyone else has been uniformly scathing about them.

estela, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:49 (eighteen years ago)

I haven't met any non-antipodeans who like it either.

wilter, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:51 (eighteen years ago)

Hmmmm - the person I stayed with on Friday night expressed a preference for one over the other, and didn't say she hated either! (Her husband had Australian snacks in the cupboard, and that is how we got to talking about international snack foods...). Anyway, R0bbi3 is an American! So there are a few of them out there.

Also, I truly believe John will eat or drink anything now. With the possible exceptions of tofu and Hardee's curly fries.

Sara R-C, Sunday, 18 May 2008 22:52 (eighteen years ago)

we're having a cocktail party this evening.

do i set out the marmite and vegemite and bovril to see if anyone takes the challenge, or do i leave them in the cupboard to moulder in peace?

lxy, Sunday, 18 May 2008 23:05 (eighteen years ago)

^^oops

jergïns, Sunday, 18 May 2008 23:05 (eighteen years ago)

genuine lol, genuine awe:

jergïns, Sunday, 18 May 2008 23:11 (eighteen years ago)

Most confusing post of the day? Very, very possible.

Sara R-C, Sunday, 18 May 2008 23:40 (eighteen years ago)

Sara, don't make me send you some Bovril...

Mark C, Monday, 19 May 2008 09:35 (eighteen years ago)

Mark C, I don't fear your empty threats!

Sara R-C, Monday, 19 May 2008 15:21 (eighteen years ago)

My lack of fear may be due to the fact that I have lost the key to my mailbox, however.

Sara R-C, Monday, 19 May 2008 15:22 (eighteen years ago)

QUICK RANKINGS - MORE LATER

WINNER: BOVRIL
2ND PLACE: NOT EATING
3RD PLACE: BARELY EDGED BY VEGEMITE
4TH: MARMITE

in many ways i found it difficult to distinguish marmite and vegemite - bovril though was pretty good

i am the only one of our testers that feels this way though

John Justen, Monday, 19 May 2008 15:54 (eighteen years ago)

Can I petition to have the thread title changed to "BOVRIL RULZ" etc?

Mark C, Monday, 19 May 2008 16:00 (eighteen years ago)

remy, bless him, pocketed the bovril

jergïns, Monday, 19 May 2008 16:47 (eighteen years ago)

i even dipped my finger in it on the way home. so did rrrickey, and up to the knuckle.

remy bean, Monday, 19 May 2008 17:58 (eighteen years ago)

HI DERE OUT OF CONTEXT THREAD

HI DERE, Monday, 19 May 2008 19:22 (eighteen years ago)

I was in the supermarket in the "international" section and they had a product that looked exactly like Bovril, same bottle and font I think, but it ws called something else.

Plz explain, Mark C. Is it export Bovril because Bovril is such a bad name??

wilter, Monday, 19 May 2008 22:01 (eighteen years ago)

As far as I can tell Bonox is the Aussie equivalent, but it is in a vegemite-style jar rather than Bovril-style, being also made by Kraft.

Or was it Oxo Spread?
