Not sure? This might call for a "Recce".

We have a dualit toaster & I love marmite - so good news for me :)

But hubby hates marmite, but i've seen the perfect toaster for him - the toast even pops up with the KTM logo on it :lol:

Yes Safeways sell it, but don't look in the sandwich filler section, check out the spice section.....;)

Bless you far answering...but it was really an "in joke";)

Here its in the baking section of the IGA...yeast innit:) Truth is no one in Canada has any idea what its for. I only bought a jar cos my canadian wife had to taste it to believe my description of it.

The Real Canadian Superstore near us has figured it out, they have it in with the peanut butter and spreads. :thumbsup:

Who'd a thunk it.:confused:

Everytime I go back to UK I get loaded up on marmite by well meaning relatives and friends. I do like the stuff, as does the Mrs but we have a significant inventory on hand. So I'm afraid I couldn't tell you which aisle in either Dominion or Sobeys it can be found in.;)

If I plug my girly hair straighteners into a block heater whilst drinking PG tips, and eating marmite, can I play my UK DVD's on my snowtires or do I need prawn cocktail crisps to watch Sky TV?

My daughter (I blame the nursery she went to), and Robski both seem to like it?
Stand up Robski and be counted!;)
