    Don't have an Aldi...wink

    I do like marmite and peanut butter, though not together, ever! Peanut butter on toast with blackcurrant jam is comfort food for me. 

    I hear others rely on these for similar effects...🥟🥟🥟  laughing

    Off limits for me I'm sorry to say.

    We used to use it for the base of a good gravy and Mrs WN used to eat it quite a bit in various guises including crisps. Says it reminds her of the Bovril hot drinks she used to get in her childhood.

    Yes, I spotted it tonight in our local Aldi. I like both, but didn’t bother buying tonight. I like a scrape of marmite topped with Philadelphia cream cheese on nice bread.........or, from my childhood days, crunchy peanut butter, topped with golden syrup!😱 The calorie count is off the scale, but the combination is simply divine. Haven’t dared try it for years.😥

    We often do what we call Gourmet Beans on Toast.......poach mushrooms, drain. Add baked beans, extra tomato purée, meanwhile toast some nice thick sliced bread, scrape with marmite, load bean mixture on top, grate some decent Parmesan on top, lots of black pepper, yummy. Staple MH picnic lunch in Winter, while bird watching from comfort of MH😁

    Real comfort food, but gives you three veggie hits as well. We don’t always add the cheese, depends how the diet is going! 

    Mentioning it has just prompted our day out for next week. We need to take MH for a run, so might do RSPB Blacktoft Sands. Walk the five or six hides, have a warm by the stove in the main centre, then back to MH for..........Gourmet Beans😂

    Peanut butter and a tangy marmalade is another good combination.

    Cheddar cheese slices and marmite sandwiches sounds good.

    I love Marmite, Tesco's own version and Vegemite and I also love cheese.   I've just had Marmite on home made fresh bread with a cup of teas.  Heaven.

    Years ago, I found a Marmite flavoured cheddar cheese and ate loads of it.  Just as quickly as it appeared, it disappeared never to be seen again but I often put cheese and Marmite together.  I definitely don't like peanut butter though.

    Trouble is, at our house, my hubby detests Marmite and won't even use the same knife to butter his toast.  If I made this, even in half the quantity, I'd have to eat it all myself.  Such a trauma. lol

    Love peanuts but peanut butter I do not. Why, when it tastes so nice? It's purely the feel of the stuff in my mouth, it makes me shudder as it sticks to the 'roof'! I'm suddering as I'm thinking about it.👅
