the bovril has sealed itself into an impenetrable unopenable form

after this test was concluded, henry went outside and pooped

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

<3 @ all of this.

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.

why would anyone want to eat anything called bovril?!
― tehresa, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 06:59 (fourteen years ago) link
i am so close to calling animal cruelty hotline on you, j.
― tehresa, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:00 (fourteen years ago) link
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 (fourteen years ago) link
we see some sights here also.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:01 (fourteen years ago) link
note that JJ's dog only looks suspiciously at the marmite AFTER tasting the vegemite.
― jabba hands, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 07:39 (fourteen years ago) link
what i note is it dawning on henry that jj didn't save the best for last.
― estela, Tuesday, 13 October 2009 08:42 (fourteen years ago) link
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.

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

the toast in this photo has been spread WAY TOO THICK with double-blind substances
― RAPTOBER (sic), Thursday, 15 October 2009 02:51 (fourteen years ago) link
agreed.
shoulda been cut in triangles, not squares
― DAN P3RRY MAD AT GRANDMA (just1n3), Thursday, 15 October 2009 02:57 (fourteen years ago) link
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.

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 (fourteen years ago) link
let's not overlook the central problem, that you guys sent us marmite and vegemite
― jergins, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:24 (fourteen years ago) link
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 03:25 (fourteen years ago) link
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 (fourteen years ago) link
ugh
― jergins, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:28 (fourteen years ago) link
maybe you all should have just mailed some pre-spread toast.
― lxy, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:30 (fourteen years ago) link
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 (fourteen years ago) link
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
― "i find your antics mirthful and infectious" (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:31 (fourteen years ago) link
see this is why you need TONS OF BUTTER: the butter mixes with the marmite and then u only need a little bit and then it all spreads out!
― DAN P3RRY MAD AT GRANDMA (just1n3), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:33 (fourteen years ago) link
maybe if we cut them into triangles next time instead of squares they'll be edible
― jergins, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:33 (fourteen years ago) link
nahh
you were way too stingy with the butter
yes you need lots of butter with your vegemite
― "i find your antics mirthful and infectious" (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:34 (fourteen years ago) link
or if you have only got marmite, then lots of butter and nothing else
― "i find your antics mirthful and infectious" (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:35 (fourteen years ago) link
but I find this a good serving suggestions as well:

if you guys are eating something only tolerable by adding lots of butter, maybe you shouldn't be eating it?
― tehresa, Thursday, 15 October 2009 03:41 (fourteen years ago) link
tell that to snails

maybe you should eat fries without salt huh

that is hardly the same thing!
