Don’t get me wrong. I’m a big fan of marmite. But I’m not an animal. I have it on toast, or a bagel, or maybe a toastie if I’m feeling reckless.

But my son wants marmite sandwiches. Sandwiches! How is it possible to spread marmite on bread without the bread disintegrating? Is there a technique that in my five decades on this earth I have not been able to master?

    The technique it to buy own brand yeast extract. Tastes identical but a lot more spreadable.

      For now I shall ignore the blasphemy, but I will say I must have been unlucky the only time I’ve tried this. Because the own brand yeast extract I tried was much thicker, and much less salty. Disappointing all round.

        I’ve tried both Morrison’s and Asda and they’re both great.

          Good to know. We live a couple of minutes walk from a 24 hour Asda, so next time I loose my rag with his marmite sandwiches I know what to do!
