Marmora Man Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I hear that it is possible to buy Marmite XO a stronger and longer matured version of the standard stuff.Trouble is, as a life long "Marmariti" I cannot locate any near ED.Can anyone help with:a. Location of a dealerb. A review of flavour and effectiveness Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10821-marmite-xo-the-big-rush/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeckhamRose Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Is there a Vegemite version I wonder?! Not keen on Marmite (proving that there is a 3rd alternative to either loving or hating) but prefer less salty Vegemite taste.

kpc Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I saw an artistic display of the product just last week in Selfridges. Unfortunately the Birmingham branch. And cannot advise on taste. I'm a Bovril man myself. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10821-marmite-xo-the-big-rush/#findComment-313987 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keef Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 According to I love marmite Quote Marmite XO is available to buy in local stores from today! Hurrah! It is available for purchase in Selfridges and Waitrose now and in Tesco and Morison's on Monday 8th March 2010. Please tell your friends, family and strangers! Personally, I think you're all weird. The smell makes me gag when I have to ake marmite on toast for Mrs Keef.That said, I'll look in the little Tesco near us on Kirkdale, and report back. It's a rubbish Tesco though, so don't hold your breath.

The Minkey Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Me too (seen it in Morrisons) - I reckon it's the old formula: Black, sticky - a little goes a long, long way. Marmite of recent years is a watered down version.

HonaloochieB Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I won't name a name or point a yeast darkened finger at the individual, but there's been mention made of Vegemite on a Marmite thread.V******e is the limp, sorry dopey cousin at the wedding, leaning against the bar and drinking very small cans of weak lager compared to the Marmite relative, who is out there on the dance floor doing the Hucklebuck with two bridesmaids at a time.To use some of my Caledonian chums vernacular, it's pish.To quote Bertie Wooster it's pish and tosh.And there's an end to it.

chez Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I've been looking for the cereal bars too but can't find them anywhere! Massive anticipation of trying this!

sophiesofa Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Wow I'm excited about XO. The guiness one tasted the same to me but the champagne valentines (which I gave to myself) one was absolutely disgusting. I hope they don't bring out XO out in the squeezy - it tastes better from a proper jar.

I thought they'd somehow made it runnier in order to be able to be squeezed out, and that that had affected the flavour?

nicmc Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 the cereal bars are awful. To me they don't taste at all like marmite.I agree the champagne version was terrible, the original's the best, in the jar of course. looking forward to trying the XO though..

BECKENHAM CENTRAL Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I hate the taste and smell...but it looks rather beautiful. You may be able to buy it in Franklins for ?25 a jar.

sophiesofa Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 The squeezy one definitely has a different consistency - maybe it's just as simple as a higher water or oil content.
