är inte det där egentligen ett krypdödarmedel? HUR kan du äta det =)
Jaa, jag gillar ju chokladglass också.
Delvis är det kanske för omständigheterna under vilka jag introducerades till Marmite, en intensiv helg i Nottingham när jag och en kollega satt i en lokal professors garderob och programmerade järnet i 48 timmar för att bli klara i tid till en konsert. Ibland när man klev ut för att gå på muggen upptäckte man att det var fest i vardagsrummet, men det var bara att dyka in i hackarrummet igen. Nyfiket provade värden att utsätta mig för Marmite till frukost och smaken passade väl ihop med hela situationen. Det sitter tydligen i.
