The Marmite Thread

m.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-25867613

Those crazy Canucks across the pond have banned the stuff. An outrageous infringement on our rights to eat yeast based muck for breakfast or saving children from a lifetime of gagging on the Devil's work?

  • Seal clubbing and now this. I'm boycotting maple syrup now in protest.
  • Mmm...maple syrup. Might have to have a drizzle on my porridge this week now you've brought it up. Love the stuff.

    Does this apply to Twiglets?

    If anybody can think of anything, at all, that Canada manufactures (except as some sort of outpost for the US) I'll go for some reciprocity. (Celine Dion and Justin Bieber are already banned from my house.)

  • CAFC fan, how about canadaian cheddar?
  • Seabrook Canadian ham crisps. All the way from, er, Bradford.

    Steady on @cafcfan banning Celine Dion in person would be like cutting off your nose to spite your face :0)

  • Canadian work colleague just returned and brought in Maple Moose Crisps and they should definitely be banned

    My Humphreys for a bet, not sure whose the battery was though
  • always loved it, was brought up on it, regularly bathe in it and have recently started up an internet business selling batteries covered with dog shit to allow non-believers to experience the taste.
  • Thought this would be a Danny Green thread.
