You know Guys I too like tartar sauce and even sea food sauce, even though it's basically coloured mayonnaise. And I love that good old favourite, Heinz Tomato ketchup. UK Bob |
haha .. haven't tried marmite for a few years. Melted butter on the toast might help. Obviously need to use a very thin scoop to spread delicately. I guess you could always have toast in one hand, a teaspoon of marmite in the other & taste each after each other. :p :rofl: Likewise UKBob .. that is about what it is .. but tastes great. We had a locally made version only findable at special food outlets .. is even better. Heinz over here also, I buy both/either Heinz tomato & ketchup .. depending on my mood at the time, alternating. Ketchup is not quite as sharp in flavor as tomato sauce, but both very very similar. |

Bovril TheFakeSheikh It's "Bovril" that's made from beef extract, I got Bovril and Marmite mixed up because they use the same shaped jar as packaging. UK Bob |
LOL! This is a great thread! |
Vegemite is a product made in the US and sold throughout Australia. I am told it can be found in virtualy every home there. I think they spread it on bread or crackers. I don't know if it is sold anywhere in the US. (Unlike Spam, which seems to sell in the US almost as well as it does in the UK. We even have a Spam museum.) British-style fish and chips never caught on in the US. I guess our newsprint doesn't have the same flavor. What the Brits put into pies is almost as disgusting as what the Scots eat (I'm of the Craig clan). "Apple pie", an american food, sounds yummy. "Steak & kidney pie"... And I don't even want to think of the possibilities of "beef extract". Anyone for Velveeta "cheese product"? It's made from cow extract and I think something from Dupont. |
Vegemite was originally a product from Australia but a USA company bought the rights to produce it. Had to say that. :p lol :D We used to have fish n chips wrapped in newspaper also once upon a time. Now it's just a plain white'ish paper (lack of so many chemicals I guess.) A slightly different type of pie here. Meat pies; which are about 4 inches (9-10 cm) in diameter, an inch (2.5 cm deep) which make a small handy meal usually for lunch. Traditionally they were a beef gravy. Nowadays they might be a mixture with lamb or kangaroo meat depending on brand. There's also other meat flavors such as chicken or chicken with vegetables. Or curry flavored or meat with mushrooms, etc. Traditionally pies have a dipping of tomato sauce on top, whether the person wants sauce or not. Then there's 'Party Pies' which are miniature versions of the above meat pies (about 1/2 size, perhaps 1/3 of weight). |
LOTR I tried kangeroo meat once and I liked it, I wish I could get it in my local supermarket. UK Bob |
Kangaroo meat is nice. Similar to beef except minimal fat. It's much better for you than beef. I've only bought actual kangaroo meat a couple of times. It's usually rather expensive. |
I've had kangaroo tail (no, not that way!). It was canned, and tasted like a canned lean beef. Had alligator tail a few years ago. Made me feel like a cave man. I learned that people in Hawaii consume more Spam per capita than anywhere else in the US (according to Cash Cab). They obviously have a cattle shortage. |
