I'm after some too. Tesco sold out. It's all over eBay, but I ain't going down like that.

Good things come to those who hate.

both marmite and guiness are not only the cause of the skits but actually are the skits.

I've found none either. But I now know where marmite is kept in most supermarkets.
lots on ebay:
http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/…if you're willing to pay abaout £7 incl P&P. Personally I'm not bothered enough to fund these opportunist bastards who go around buying loads of stuff to shift on ebay.

It's probably not as easy to find in Dublin as Polish sausage is, but hold on, I'll investigate the issue..

Yep, seen it for about the last three weekends in advertisment-features in all the sunday papers but not a sign of it in any of the shops...

I just spent half of my lunchtime looking for marmite in Dublin's stores, including one official Guinness store. They have Guinness clocks, calendars, aprons, St. Paddy's figurines, glasses, towels, openers, postcards, magnets, tshirts, posters, mirrors, keychains, toffi/caramel sweets, but nobody there ever saw marmite, despite having been constantly asked about it by customers. One manager told me she was sure it wasn't in the Gunness catalog. The closest thing they had in stores was Guinness marinade
One shop assistant though, wearing green polo and a 'Patrick' name tag said marmite was a very English thing, quite unlikely to be seen in Ireland.Now that would make perfect sense to me.. I imagine, some 200 years ago a drunken Irishman managed to sell residue from stout brewing to a drunken English snob who started the fashion.
No wonder Irish don't eat it as it's a brewing byproduct, which sounds like a perfect euphemism for rubbish..But then if you're after some delicious kielbasa krakowska, my quest might be more successful.

I've just seen a load at the Waitrose on Holloway Road.
Pure evil stuff, by the sounds of it - 2 of my least favourite things, combined.

Yum.
Finally got it.

when I asked locals about it, they told me it must have been one of the really disgusting things I had missed in my childhood, alongside bovril..
