Sign of an old fogie #33 - Do you eat marmalade ?

[Flick of the Elbow]

intriguing story in the Telegraph, apparently only 1% of marmalade buyers are under 28. 60% of marmalade buyers are over 65. Many children are being raised having never tasted marmalade, just 10% of marmalade is sold to households with children.
Me, I go through about a jar a week. At 52, I am proud to be considered an old fogie. Raised on marmalade and Paddington.

But what flavour? I'm partial to Orange and Ginger.

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

Only orange for me.

No, can't stand it. It's like eating fruit flavoured bogies with rubber bands mixed in.

I'm afraid you're going to have to get used to it if you want to be an Earl. Imagine the Downton breakfast table without it. A very poor show indeed.

You're still too young for it, obvs.

 

[Pro Tour Punditry]

Cannot stand the stuff; despite growing up close to Dundee.

Love it, always have, if you don't like marmalade you're a feckin' weirdo.

Mum use to use it when doing the Christmas cake decorations, otherwise not keen

I hope she was given a stern talking to

 

[biggs682]

I hope she was given a stern talking to

Probably but I doubt that she had her hearing aids in or on

 

[Hitchington]

I most definitely do, and it's one of the few items that I'm prepared to "GO PREMIUM" and not buy own brand.
