vanessan Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 We’ve been out for 3weeks now and no problems anywhere so far. I’ve shopped in Morrison’s in Norwich, Tesco’s in Beccles and the Coop in Loddon. The Coop did seem to have a shortage of green veg and the meat shelves were a bit sparse so they may have been experiencing delivery difficulties. Of course I may have just picked the wrong time to shop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulN Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 I've changed to Bovril when once I couldn't get Marmite. I've stayed with Bovril, as so much easier to spread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CambridgeCabby Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Much prefer the Marmite XO they did warn of a shortage of Marmite on Look East a few weeks ago due to the breweries reducing the amount of beer being brewed due to covid 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bytheriver Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 The village independents seem OK too ( as they were in the first lockdown) ! Lathams & the other QD Stores around the area & the other cut price sheds never ran out of Loo Rolls either - most made a feature of them as they started to re-open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwanR Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 The farm shop close to Wayford Bridge has remained open but the tearoom there, Vera’s, had to close for a week because too many of their staff were pinged. They assured customers that it was not likely to have affected them. I think they reopen today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Try this! Mix Marmite with cream cheese and spread it on whatever you want to. Really scrummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meantime Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 The one I really don't get is Marmite peanut butter. It's expensive and for me the two just don't work, but if you like it then your better of just using your peanut butter of choice and adding as much Marmite as you want on top.
