Guest Stoppit Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Why does Bovril make you think of coffee? I need to know to properly understand your Bovril-hatred Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/43021-bovril/#findComment-961728 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abusivegeorge Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 For some reason I've always thought it was a hot drink, and then one day someone told me it was brown, this is literally the only conclusion I can come to.

Guest Stoppit Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Well, it can be a hot drink, but you can also spread it on bread or toast, like marmite. and it's full of beefy goodness.

Guest Stoppit Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Of course I'm being serious, Bovril is no laughing matter. It's beef extract.

Guest boo Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 at some point in my childhood i realised bovril was supposed to be a drink (there's steam on the label) and i've felt weird about it ever since, actually the last time i had bovril was about 15 years ago, when i tried it as a drink. i actually had marmite on toast today and didn't really enjoy it.

Guest boo Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 oh yea, vegemite has a lot less protein in it than marmite, like 20% less or something Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/43021-bovril/#findComment-961775 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abusivegeorge Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 So like you can spread this stuff on toast and what do you do for the drink, put a dollop in mug and pour over boiling water?

Guest Stoppit Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 tauboo said: but it's so long ago... can you describe what makes bovril better? To me, its just got a slightly 'warmer' taste and is thicker...it's like the difference between butter and margerine (well, it's probably nothing like that, but that's the best I can do). And it's beefier, of course. Its all a matter of personal preference, of course... But if you think marmite is better, you're wrong.

Guest Stoppit Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 xxx said: rendering a cow into salty poo lol this is where it gets complicated... they swapped it from beef to yeast extract for a while (it tasted pretty much the same though) in order to make it suitable for vegetarians. I think some people complained, and they started using beef again the 'Bovrilgate' scandal was a dark time for Bovril-lovers...

Guest bitroast Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 saw a poster for bovril and had no idea what it was. someone thought it was a cross dresser, someone else thought type of medicine. beef extract you spread on toast and make drinks with?? sounds filthy. what's wrong with vegemite.
