Oh dear...... :(

It makes Iceland (the shop, not the country :wink: ) look like a one stop shop for fine dining :shock:

The stand-out thing for me was the minced beef, it turned orange in the pan before any kind of tomato or bolognese sauce was added. Not that I'm suggesting any of these things should be orange, but you get my drift :wink:

Yuck! :(

I beg to differ. Nothing wrong with these cheapo supermarkets, you snob! They're very handy for people on a budget..or tight gets like me. Obviously you'd think twice about buying meat and stuff from there though :wink:


Sorry if I offended the non aspirational in you Freddie....... :lol:

Marmite is a vegetable yeast extract. I believe it's most common form globally is Vegemite, as popularised by Australians......

It's great, it tastes like what you might call 'meat flavoured potato chips'

Over here, we call them 'beef crisps' :wink:

So it has a beefy flavour but has in fact nothing to do with beef at all :?
