Love it or Hate it
Denmark has banned Marmite and i love this quote;
and the government says;
Obviously Soren does not love it....

"They don't like it because it's foreign," she said, adding that she already planned to send off for supplies from abroad. "But if they want to take my Marmite off me they'll have to wrench it from my cold dead hands."
Recent comments from the Danish immigration minister, Søren Pind, that foreigners should "assimilate" or leave, coupled with the country's recent unilateral decision to reinstate border checks, have left some residents questioning the motivation behind the crackdown.

Re: Love it or Hate it
I've just been reading that and was about to post, but you beat me to it.
Ridiculous law. It's good for you and it's not as if anyone is forced to eat it. Time to ban Danish bacon I think.
I LOVE MARMITE

I hate it.
Marmite is actually made by packing dog turds, vomit, burning hair and tangled pubes into a machine. Pulverising it, adding some washing up liquid and sticking it into a jar.
Label on, yellow lid, to the shops.
The stuff is rancid.

I am indifferent to Marmite though and can take it or leave it...but it's dumb to ban it. Some jobsworth somewhere in Denmark's government should be sent to Norway and forced to pay their prices for booze as punishment
I can't retaliate though - we only have British bacon in the house these days...am going through a buy British phase

I don't have a tattoo either. I am beginning to feel like an outcast. I fear there will soon be concentration camps opened for croc-wearing Marmite-haters...
