    Ah Bovril, it's the best on toast with butter or with boiling water.
    Do you love/hate Bovril? If so, reasons would be nice.

    Screw vegemite/marmite/other yeast based spreads:D
    Any Bovril fans out there, or am I the only one?

    Love the stuff with boiling water.

    My friends call me old fashioned for drinking the stuff.

    My sister used to be addicted to it all through school....sometimes dipping the spoon in the jar to eat it neat :( I was more of an oxo girl myself.

    Ah well, they probably drink tea.
    Surely older than Bovril?

    Lovely stuff all the same.

    Hate!

    Even the smell is just sickening!

    We had some struggle at home trying get the lid off as well! Not worth the sweat and tears.:p

    There was a year or two back when Bovril was meat-free, then they reverted back to Beef, when it was meat free it was actually fairly nice. Marmite for me all day long.
