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

[threebikesmcginty]

Sunpat isn't fit to be described as peanut butter - revolting muck!

Nonsense, I'm a connoisseur of peanut butter and this is good stuff.

 

[smutchin]

Point of order - Sunpat crunchy sugar free is the future, that whole earth stuff is horrible.

My problem with Sunpat has always been the same as my problem with most marmalade brands - far too sweet. I didn't know they made a sugar-free version. Interesting. I might have to try it if you reckon it's that good - although you are totally wrong about Whole Earth, obviously.

Hmm, kids that were born in the 1950s perhaps.

You're so square, daddio.

I wonder how many grams of marmalade Ianuk has consumed in his life time.

Why is orange jam called marmalade ?

Because it sounds posher than 'gloopy orange sugar'.

I do like marmalade, used to have it on toast until I came up here and now toast, butter, then marmalade
As a kid, used to have Ready Brek, then toast and marmalade for breakfast but never managed to eat the toast, as by the time I'd picked all the "bits out" it was cold.

No googling now, that would be cheating.

What is the difference between jam and marmalade?

 

[slowmotion]

Yet to find a marmalade I don't like!

Surely you would draw the line at squirtable?????

 

[NorthernDave]

Not a fan of marmalade full stop, sorry.

Marmite on toast however, is the breakfast of champions.
Occasionally I'll have Lemon Curd on toast instead, preferably from Fortnum & Mason (obviously).

Make your own, it's easy, nicer, and has no additives.

Buy marmalade? Exhibit A is a 2lb jar made by my Dad. He "only" made 21lb this year - the jar pictured was one he found left over from last year. I'm a huge Marmite fan too though. When I was tiny, I was fed Weetabix with hot milk and Marmite. I think I got hooked then.

I had no idea that squirty marmalade was a thing. I would indeed draw the line at it.

Stout fellow!

I wouldn't say I was stout, exactly.
