    I have a brilliant true story about Marmite that actually happened to me. I live in England, but was studying in Israel for a year. During a holiday I'd come back to the UK for a week, and decided to stock up on some English staples to take back to Israel with me - including a jar of Marmite. Back in Israel, I put the Marmite on my desk in the study hall to see people's reactions: loads of English people went past and offered up a "wey!" or "ughhh". The guy sitting next to me was American and had no idea what it was. He asked if he could try it. I have to stress, I didn't try to fool him at all; he asked if it was like chocolate spread and I very clearly said no, that it was NOTHING like chocolate spread, that it was seriously strong and very different to anything he'd likely had before, and that in England there are probably as many people who hate it as love it. He was undeterred and wanted to try it, so I opened it and let him take the tiniest little bit just from the lid to taste. He put it in his mouth. I swear to you, this is exactly what happened:
    His eyes immediately bulged and he literally turned red; he was like, "OMG what the actual F is that?!". He ran out of the room to find some water. There was a bathroom outside the room with a washing basin outside, so he went straight to the sink and turned the tap, but in his haste he turned it way too much and the water shot out and went all over him, soaking his trousers. There was a paper towel dispenser above it so he quickly tried to take some towels but, again, in his rush, he didn't realise there was a jagged edge to tear the towel, and as he tried to do it quickly he cut his finger. He's now got wet trousers and a bloody finger and, in his annoyance, he hits the towel dispenser... not realising that someone had left a glass plate sitting on top of it, which duly fell off and smashed all over the floor.
    I kid you not, I stood and watched this all happen because of the *tiniest* taste of Marmite, and all I could think, through my stunned amusement, was that this would make the most perfect Marmite advert - but that no one would believe it had actually happened.

The spread was originally made in and sold in earthenware pots of a similar shape to the French cooking pot, which is a stock pot or a casserole-like pot with a lid and two finger grips on each side.

    My grandparents lived across the river in Burton-upon-Trent where the marmite factory used to be and they took the hot hops from the brewery to the marmite factory, after they made a batch of marmite the wastewater used to be discharged into the river where it created a heat mist and all you could smell was marmite. If the mist got on your clothes you smelled of marmite and I've loved it ever since.

    The skill in eating Marmite IMO is to not spread too much on whatever you are eating, I hated it for years until someone made a toasted English muffin and spread the bare minimum of Marmite on it, I loved it, you could only just taste it, I think a slightly Marmite flavoured HP sauce would be the ultimate condiment!

    thinking of wet behind the ears, you're obviously aware of what the most advantageous effects of Vegemite that was found in Australia was, in the UK we have a similar old trick with Marmite, if you mix some with hot water in a bucket and paint it around your crumpet bush, it stops the Haggi from nesting in them and ruining your crop (although most clockwise domesticated Haggi are now immune,)
    EDIT: I have also found it helps against seasonal Bap infestations, although it seems to attract Barms and Stotties

    Dean Gaffney was a very well known actor in the 90s/early 2000s in Eastenders, but his career kind of fell of a cliff after he was written out. He was so iconic as ricky in eastenders i think he struggled to get any other job tbh. I think he might have ended up as a labourer or something at one point. He appears to be a really nice guy, and used his press reported "downfall" to help a career comeback of sorts, making fun of himself in a nice way on ads like this. He definitely had more work now, done reality TV and been back in Eastenders a few times.
