Would a peanut butter and olive sandwich appeal to you?

LOL, I am still trying to imagine that one.

What is it with Marmite sandwiches? Or Marmite on toast. Who eats that stuff? It's the skid marks on the devil's underpants.

My hubby eats raw onions and jelly on white bread.

I go for olives but the peanut butter would stop me.

It wouldn't be my first choice either but an eyeball sandwich might be fun for a Halloween party with a bunch of tweenie boppers.

Anyone that says we are all the same should look in to what we eat. Jelly & onions. Peanut butter & olives. Same? Not.

Worth a try. Might also be worth trying to stuff an olive with PB instead of pimento. Might make for an interesting hors dāoeuvre, as does celery with peanut butter.

Not much different than peanut butter and pickles

I've never heard of Marmite. Is it also known as vegemite?

I had lettuce and tomato in my mayo-ketchup sandwich.
I wouldn't be able to do it, Deb.
My baby brother used to make ketchup and mayonnaise sandwiches. Mom and I would heave watching him eat them. LOL!

It's very similar, but different. Marmite--UK, Vegemite--Australia. Both are an extracted yeast product and to my "Yank" tastes I prefer Marmite. I have tasted both straight, but don't consume it that way. I've used it as an ingredient like one would use Kitchen Bouquet. Just to give you hint what the Vegemite is like eat a really cheap beef bouillon cube--with a salt chaser. The texture is not quite as smooth as wheel packing grease. I would rate Marmite a more palatable version.

Neither one sounds very palatable to me, but it sounds like something one would use in cooking. I'm going to look into it, just out of curiosity.

A combination of equal parts of ketchup and mayo (with seasonings) was a very popular old timey recipe for salad dressing. Used to be served on a wedge of iceberg lettuce with a strip of pimento draped over top. It's also the basis for some fast food hamburger sauces.

I'm unsure if you can still find Vegemite in a store, but lots of regular stores have Marmite.
I can see how it would make for an excellent hamburger sauce with a few goodies to kick it up.
Oddly enough, a few Asian supermarkets here carry Vegemite .. and Milo - 2 things that I got used to when I lived in Australia.

I should have specified in US stores. For a time it wasn't being imported, I don't recall why.
@ Pinky: On a related , about 25 years ago I stopped in a regular drug store to buy a paper and in the candy display across from the register were 2 packages of Violet Crumbles--one and only time I've ever seen them in a regular retail setting. Though years later I was able to find them through specialty shops on occasion.
