Marmalade
From Wikipedia:
Marmalade is a sweet conserve with a bitter tang made from citrus fruit, sugar, water, and (in some commercial brands) a gelling agent. In English-speaking usage "marmalade" invariably refers to a conserve derived from a citrus fruit, most commonly from oranges. The recipe includes sliced or chopped fruit peel, which is simmered in fruit juice and water until soft; indeed marmalade is sometimes described as jam with fruit peel. Such marmalade is most often consumed on toasted bread as part of a full English breakfast. The favoured citrus fruit for marmalade production in the UK is the "Seville orange", thus called because it was originally imported from Seville in Spain; it is higher in pectin than sweet oranges, and therefore gives a good set. Marmalade can also be made from lemons, limes, grapefruits, or a combination of citrus fruits. Do you love it? Do you hate it? Do you even care? Personally the only marmalade I can stand is the shredless type, as I hate any type of peel. |
One of those things that disgust me since i was born.So sweet it makes me puke....
|
with bits, extra chunky. lovely stuff.
|
Definitely shredless. Like marmite, something I really have to be in the mood for.
Oh, and...what a stupid thread. Have you got nothing better to do. I've had at least 5 old people in today muttering about the poor quality of pension providers in the Woking area. |
And you voted for not caring less about it. You care enough to start another bleedin' poll.

Didn't like it so much as a child, but like it now.
I also like dark chocolate with orange peel in it. |

I've seen this tramp getting told off by the new zero-tolerance warriors that wander in Westiminster the other night.His crime?He looked like a tramp so he's been warned not to look like that in the future.How do you spot a whore who approaches a bar?Under british law you can't serve them at the bar but what do you really say to someone you think might be a hooker?

Why would somebody phone Pensions R Us to say that? At least my joke had a grain of realism. I'm feeling feisty today. |

Start a poll. "How can you tell if somebody's a hooker?" Or, "What's the best way to tell somebody they look like a hooker?" |
Ok.
|
Don't you think there have been enough frivolous polls already today?

I hear that a lot. |
I haven't made you cry have I?
|
No, I was crying anyway.
|
Awwww. Poor poor Pookie.
|
Proud now?
|
I often cry while I'm on this board. Can't think why.
|
Pookie's sweetest dreams are of his own death.
|
"I'm replying to a Marmalade thread" is all I have to think, and the tears come.

Your whole lifetime has led up to THIS. |

Why do people keep referring to my death on here. Have my doctor's notes been leaked? |
I have to go now. My bosses are starting to wonder why I'm laughing so much.
|
Laughing at work=poor productivity.

Of course Paddington was right. He's Paddington. You used to be able to buy 'Paddington's Special Marmalade', with no bits in, but I haven't seen it for sale for a few years. THe Traidcraft marmalade is nice, and Sainsbury's do a nice one too.
I especially like lime marmalade. |

Hip, like the old song goes.... "have i told you lately that i love you?" oh to have a taste of lime marmalade..... bread and drippin is all we get in ireland. |
Sainsbury's sell both their own and Rose's lime marmalade. Lovely.

One of the worst i have tasted has to be chestnut marmalade.
|
Hi porkmarras. Chestnut marmalade? I've never tried that. Don't think I ever will, either, but I applaud you heartily for braving it.
Roses is the brand for lime stuff. |
Hello Hip Priest!My grandmother had such odd culinary taste,she thought that chestnut marmalade was a treat for her nephew.Arrrghhh!Disgusting!
|
Quote:
ewww, that sounds ikky. |
It doesn't appeal to me, I have to say. But then, I don't like chestnuts too much either. What are you supposed to do with chestnut marmalade? Is there a traditional use?
|
Marmalade's ok.
