Following the recent heated discussion re: Marmite, I saw this today. I'd seen pictures, but look, it really exists and half price no less. I wonder why that might be. Reader: I did not buy it. I wouldn't even know what to do with it. They suggest over ice cream, or churros. Or popcorn or savoury veg?? But, even as a superfan, I couldn't bring myself to buy. I might regret that: I doubt they're making more... #Marmite #UKFood #MarksAndSpencer

Plastic squeezy containers of "Caramel Sauce with Marmite" on M&S shelves advertised with a red sticker as half price. £1.50 instead of the original £3. Next to some classic, elixir of life, Marmite.
