I like to stir it into gravy to thicken it - it's awesome on teh chips :D
(marmite is a good substitute in an emergency though)

What do you think? Too long?
Meat based drink, is that bovril?! It sounds disquisting
Not really... think of it like instant soup, or stock. Only it's better than the powdered soups.

I like Marmite, there pretty similar so I've heard. Never actually had Bovril myself

Perfect in every way...
...although I shall no longer be putting bovril into my gravy on ethical grounds.
Hmmmm Bovril, it's great when you have come in from a cold and wet out doors.
Love the stuff, can't get enough of it. Plus Marmite is my favorite toast spread.
Yeast extract is awesome.
Never tried it, but I'm why Bobafet, seems disgusting :chin:
But I could give it a try someday, since some of you seem to like it :)

I used to be given drinks of Bovril by my lovely Gran and Grandad, when they were still with us.
It tasted really nice. I wouldn't say it tastes anything like Marmite though, as I hate that stuff. It's absolutely disgusting.
Anyway, I guess I miss having Bovril, so maybe I'll get some at some point soon, too. ;)
It's good stuff!

Used to have this at half-time when I used to play football.
It was disgusting.
