As the title indicates, it reveals an extraordinary range of information - from serious to silly, with lots of tasty nuggets in between - about the iconic British spread. From its beginnings as yeast-waste from the brewing industry to its use today in the finest restaurants, this book reveals the grip Marmite has on palates - and minds. The tales it tells amount to a social-history, covering over 100 years. It’s crammed with insights into: how it all began, old-time recipes, new culinary tips, its place in medicine, its role in education and wars, its uses apart from eating it, and much more. All of which add up to an amazing feat for a humble food product. To find out more go to: Mish-Mash-Marmite.blogspot and for you Aussies out there, Vegemite is mentioned 40 times! Not bad for a book about the mighty-M. And for you Kiwis, the book tells the fascinating back-story to the "Marmite" you love. Thanks, Maggie Hall - and thanks Michele, terrific piece! Meanwhile, 'am going to have to find out what a 'Dubliner' is? Sounds like something I need to try!
