Oh I don't know about that - I just noticed in the supermarket, it was the same red label so I assumed they just changed it.

I could quite well be wrong, Liz. I don't buy the stuff ... veggie or not! Blech! Gimme Marmite any day of the week! Sheril, you are depriving yourself of one of life's pleasures! ;)

yeah stick to Marmite....it makes good carburetor lubricant... :P ;D
But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

I can't TELL you how anxious I am to taste this stuff!  :D

Seriously, since it seems that I'm going to have to taste and determine for myself (these fake-beef-like and salty-poo tasting products  :D) would anyone mind another question?

If you could have your local grocery carry four American items not currently available to you, what would they be?

I'd be happy if my local grocery stocked:

1.  corn tortillas
2.  proper Mexican sauces/ingredients (not Old El Paso or Discovery)
3.  roast garlic Triscuits
4.  Nutter Butters

On second thought, im GLAD they dont stock 3. & 4., cos i'd be gorging on them all the time.
I can get 1. & 2. if i go through to Edinburgh, but not in my local grocery.
