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.

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)

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?

Mark C, Monday, 19 May 2008 22:31 (eighteen years ago)

p.s. that is not the real (or at least British) Bovril label.

Mark C, Monday, 19 May 2008 22:31 (eighteen years ago)

I can't remember, I might buy it.

wilter, Monday, 19 May 2008 22:32 (eighteen years ago)

While I appreciate reading the rankings (LOL at "NOT EATING"), I would like to see scorecards and photographs, please, Mr. Justen.

uptoeleven Nick, what do you think of Bovril?

Mark C, Friday, 23 May 2008 10:27 (eighteen years ago)

I *think* i like it but my experiences have been mostly confined to the terraces of various football grounds in winter months. I don't think this is an entirely fair test as I'm going to be in love with anything cockles-warming in such nads-shrinking situations.

I can say with confidence, however, that both marmite and vegemite be GROSS. Bovril pwns by default but I shall test it under climate-controlled conditions this weekend and report back.

Upt0eleven, Friday, 23 May 2008 11:21 (eighteen years ago)

Smashing - don't forget, good white bread, lightly toasted, generously buttered, with Bovril spread thinly and eaten while still hot. Man, I wonder if I can arrange for this to be my lunch?

Mark C, Friday, 23 May 2008 11:29 (eighteen years ago)

I should have a party where all of the finger food is made of marmite/vegemite/bovril.

HI DERE, Friday, 23 May 2008 13:24 (eighteen years ago)

do you hate your guests?

jergïns, Friday, 23 May 2008 16:09 (eighteen years ago)

it came to me late the other night, when i was drunk with a friend and we were doing some tasting

marmite's a salt lick. in 'edible' form

jergins, Tuesday, 27 May 2008 01:40 (eighteen years ago)

i bought some bovril yesterday and i had some on toast first, then in a hot drink, and i liked both (i'd realised i couldn't remember it very well because it had been such a long time). i still prefer vegemite on toast but bovril is better for drinking. also, i hate marmite.

estela, Tuesday, 27 May 2008 01:42 (eighteen years ago)

hey i hate marmite too!

jergins, Tuesday, 27 May 2008 01:45 (eighteen years ago)

yeah aussiemite is likely better than marmite.

wilter, Tuesday, 27 May 2008 01:45 (eighteen years ago)

what in the fuck even is 'mar' btw.

wilter, Tuesday, 27 May 2008 01:46 (eighteen years ago)

jergins, Tuesday, 27 May 2008 01:50 (eighteen years ago)
