Marmite cereal bars out 2nd November, that’s tomorrow!

If you are a Marmite fan, head to Morrison’s to bag yourself some Marmite cereal bars as they come out tomorrow – 2nd November.

On the back of my previous post, I was lucky enough to get a sneak preview ahead of the launch, and I have to admit, I was unsure at first.

They kind of taste like Flapjacks, only not sweet, but also not overly ‘marmity’; either way something worked because I kept coming back for more.  A strange combination of oats, wheat and rice smothered in yeasty yumminess – they totally work, I am just not sure why.  Having said that, there is never going to be any substitute for a hot buttery crumpit or slice of toast smothered in Marmite now is there?

When I opened them in the office and offered them around, I got completely mixed comments. One girl immediately hit Twitter singing its praises “Verdict YUMM!”; others were not sure: “Eugh, they taste stale”; “Wierd, but strangely good”; I don’t think I should like them, but I do, are there any more?”; “Nope, wrong consistency”; “Oh my God, they are AMAZING!”

Whether you are a Marmite fan or not, give them a try. You might be pleasantly surprised, and hey at only 93 calories/ bar and £1.99 for six bars, what have you got to lose?

The only issue for me (until they roll out in other stores in the New Year) is finding a Morrisson’s nearby…

So, a bonkers idea or an ideal mishmash of loveliness? Verdict: ideal mishmash of loveliness of course!
