I've always hated that stuff. I can't imagine why people would want to eat orange peel in any form.

I just bought a nice jar of it at Tuesday Morning. The real thing, too, not the American swill.

The orange peel has to be packed in sea water ftw.

Yes, you have to get the good stuff. Life is too short for cheap marmalade.

I should also note that since this is the Daily Fail marmalade sales in Britain are probably really going up.

It's probably due to change in taste (consumer taste). Marmalade is popular with a somewhat older set who didn't have soda on tap everywhere, and sweets were a treat, not a staple. It takes some sophistication of palate to appreciate sweet/bitter.

/Loves me some Bonne Maman marmalade

Marmalade on whole wheat toast with a cup of coffee = good breakfast.

Is the Cajun marmalade served at the Border Cafe restaurants around Boston anything like the allegedly delicious British stuff?

crimsin23: Marmalade on whole wheat toast with a cup of coffee = good breakfast.

Hell yes.

Bucky Katt: Yes, you have to get the good stuff. Life is too short for cheap marmalade.

Oh please--whether it's fancy-shmancy marmalade or the cheap stuff, it's all good.

Nothing better than a peanut butter and orange marmalade sandwich. Beats grape jelly by a longshot.

More for me, then. The rest of you can eat Wonder bread covered in Welch Grape Jelly and topped with syrup and brown sugar to get it sweet enough for you.

Marmalade like marmalade
Marmalade like marmalade

There's only one thing that can save marmalade right now...



... and he loves pancakes...

Orange Marmalade on toast is a damn fine breakfast.

But... but... marmalade is good food!

marmalade sucks, born in the 50s.

I like it, but I hardly have a chance to eat breakfast, and wouldn't eat it every day.

In short, it spoils too fast for me to bother stocking it.

I didn't even know what marmalade was until i read this.

Marmalade sucks, but other than that every single food I've eaten with orange peel has been delicious.

I made a vanilla fudge with an orange peel flavoring for christmas this year, it was farking awesome.

inconsolable

Rose's lime marmalade w- peenut butter. oooh aaah, that's good eatin'

When I first traveled overseas, I was introduced to the wonders of orange marmalade and ginger spread from Tiptree. Omigod good.

WTF is marmalade? Isn't it a song?

What sort of numpty doesn't like marmalade?

Bastards.

After reading the thread, I'll admit I only tried marmalade once, and it was probably a crappy american brand. Seeing it described as somewhat bitter makes me want to try the real thing. I just remember it as basically a poor consistency jam made of oranges.

"It's news that will leave Paddington Bear choking on his sandwiches"

... in related news Pedo Bear is still enjoying his sandwiches very much

Doesn't marmalade have sugar added? Is that not a processed food?

Good stuff is better, Rose's is best.

orange you glad i didn't say banana?

rcain: ... in related news Pedo Bear is still enjoying his sandwiches very much

I heard he was found dead in Durango, Mexico, a victim of the recent upswing in drug-related violence. Maybe that's just wishful thinking.

Came for Paddington, leaving happy

My dad loves marmalade. I can't get into the stuff. I'm not much of an orange person in general, though.

Subby sounds bitter.

As someone who frequently goes out for brunch on Sundays, I'll say this is accurate in Southern CA. The marmalade/jelly/preserves at most establishments usually seems to have been raided for grape and strawberry, with 90% of what's left being marmalade.

bobbette: crimsin23: Marmalade on whole wheat toast with a cup of coffee = good breakfast.

Hell yes.

this! a good marmalade in the morning on toast is a feast. of course, most limeys are far too busy gumming bubble and squeek with pulpy teeth after having slathered vegemite all over their banger-soaked crumpets to bother with anything as sophisticated as marmalade.

Fine, thats more for those of us who appreciate it then!

If you were meant to eat the peel, it would be inside the orange.

Since when did today's snot-nosed, ungrateful little punks eat breakfast at all?

/grew up with cereal bars, myself
//Cream of Wheat on snow days
///with cinnamon, biatches

I have several jars of my dad's best homemade marmalade...mmm...

Marmalade is best when slathered on chicken/pork ribs, grilled to perfection & enjoyed with cooooldddd beer. Only.

No, it's just one more way that your Baby Boomer parents failed you.

\Has better opinion of 18 year old punks than Baby Boomers.

Oh, dear. Bought marmalade. I call that very feeble.

Spread it on the beaches, spread it in the streets FTW!

what is wrong with marmalade? there is nothing wrong with it... if you have a problem with marmalade you've got problems dude!

That's like saying you got problems with ice cream.

Farking ungrateful kids today!

Fail brit pop culture is fail. We dont have vegemite here. Thats for the aussies. We have Marmite. Crumpets is good to go tough (mmm crumpets, yes they can be found in any shop and they are a superior cake indeed.)

I blame Ren and Stimpy, they led us to believe that marmalade and caviar were the grossest things possible.

/I wish i hadn't rewatched that show when i was older...

Tuesday Morning, the place that sells off old crappy shiat inventoryp?

Q: What's the difference between jam and marmalade?

A: I can't marmalade my dick in your ass.
