fastbob Posted January 8, 2022 Posted January 8, 2022 Back to Marmite . I absolutely love the stuff but as a drink ? Well I've never tried it so I'll give it a go .

Therefore the extracted essence of meat in the form of Beef Tea was a convenient way of administering it . If the truth be told it was more likely a way of extracting the last few shillings worth of profit from the very worst slaughterhouse waste by marketing it to the TB riddled lower classes . Quote
