marmite... urgh

I think it is a disgrace that a national treasure (Paddington) should be exploited in this way. Everyone knows that his favourite food is Marmalade, and what better way to have it than in a bacon and marmalade sandwich.

p.s. Steve... how did you know that Paddington has his own website

I know he's a national treasure and he was always my favourite. But like Scubee says, how did you KNOW he had his own website.

(Now I know, it's been added to my favourites!!!! )

And as much as I love Marmite, I do agree with Scubee. He's a marmalade bear through and through and it is wrong that he's going to be advertising Marmite. What IS the world coming to!

If anyone advertises Marmite it should be someone like Oscar from Sesame Street or Animal from the Muppets??

Nah!! I liked the last lot of adverts - especially the one with the girlfriend throwing up after a marmite snog.

Unless I've missed it, it was the blurke gagging after kissing the gorgeous blonde

Safe diving,
Steve

P.S. as much as I'd like to say I have the Paddington site as my homepage, I heard it on the news then googled

Well, I've just walked in from work and Mini-Me was watching TV. What came on?? The Paddington Bear Marmite Advert!

He should stick to Marmalade!

OMG Marmite is nothing but the scrapings of sewer pipes by the famous Marmite recipe creator, Ol' 'stinky' McCrusty, who wondered one day what to do with this noxious, sticky brown mess, so stuck it in a jar and is currently laughing at us all from his private retreat in Jamaica

Exactly...in the cupboard. The manufacturers of this stuff know that thier product is going to be bought, tried once and when the yacking is over, live in the back of a cupboard until it's 23 years out of date and changed colour to green...

As YDs resident doctor/counselor/priest I have to tell you all that marmite is the most rancid foulage from satans colon after he's had 15 pints of guiness and a 3 year old kebab he found in a rat infested skip in Bagdad. If you eat it you will condemn your eternal soul to be boiled in a vat of Hitlers excrement and Bernard Mannings soiled undergarments for all eternity. I trust that's cleared that up.

I'm confused, does that mean you love it on toast or not?

Safe diving,
Steve
