Marmite: Where do they store yours?
 

Hello, this is not just another "marmite - love it or hate it" thread.

However, what I want to know is where is yours kept in your local supermarkets?

For years now my local Asda constantly keep it on the same aisle as gravy etc, next to the Bovril.

However, the only use of it that I have ever known has been to spread it upon toast, although the latest adverts say that it is nice on a cheese sandwich, it will still be spread on toast by 99% of the British public.

So WHY do they store it next to meat products and not on the jams & spreads aisle?

I asked my local Asda's food manager & he says that head office have decided this.
So before I complain to Asda head office with a national campaign of "Please put my marmite with the rest of the spreads", where does your local store keep thiers?

(I am serious about this you know!)

Our local Tesco keep it with the jams and marmalades! I suppose because you spread it on toast etc. :shrug:

Re: Marmite: Where do they store yours?
 

Mines the same.

Although on another note, i store mine in a lockable telecoms cabinet i aquired some years ago.. Stops the housemates munching on it... (i go a little strange if I cant have my marmite).

Hmm, yes a liittle strange maybe :D

I can openly keep mihjne in the kitchen cuboard as noone else likes it. :D

But I'm glad that Tesco's have some sense.

Ithink shops like to store it in different places just to disorientate you....

Re: Marmite: Where do they store yours?
 

I agree! So you go in to buy your loaf of bread and jar of Marmite - and come out an hour later having spent £60! :Yikes:

It should be kept in the poisons section.

Marmite is w00t.

Re: Marmite: Where do they store yours?

Re: Marmite: Where do they store yours?
 

what, w00t? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W00t

Re: Marmite: Where do they store yours?
 

Hmm, that wiki article doesn't mention w00t as being an obfuscation of 'root', signifying that you've owned someone's computer, and thus the obvious extension to 'owning' them while playing a game. That's where I thought it was from.

Back on topic - you lot spend far too long in supermarkets, or eat too much marmite - round here the jar lasts years. and all three of us eat the stuff. I have to hunt it down for hours when we run out cos I've forgotten where it is.

Here's an idea - I'd like to see Sainsburys or someone allow you to put your shopping list and local store into a website and it'll tell you the shortest route round the supermarket (I got this idea after spending 50 minutes in Tesco last Friday looking for humous). Don't think they will though - they probably like people getting lost on the way to fresh fruit and impulse-buying a widescreen TV, or something.
