Does anyone know where I can buy big jars of Bovril spread - I can only seem to get it in VERY small jars now from the supermarkets.
Kids and I love it on toast (much better than Marmite IMHO)

You either love it or hate it, i'm a Marmite person every time
Tried a local Cash'n'Carry or similar?:A Luke 6:38 :AThe above post is either from personal experience or is my opinion based on the person God has made me and the way I understand things.

Costco sell it but in really big plastic tubs and that gets very messy with 3 kids dipping into it!!!
Why have the supermarkets taken it off their shelves - anyone know?0 -
It can only be supply a nd demand I guess?
My local S'burys still do massive Marmite jars (we buy them!), but only ever see the tiny Bovril ones

Think I might have just found the answer on Unilever Website:-
13/08/2008 : Unilever UK has decided to take the precaution of issuing a product recall on Bovril Beef Extract 250g glass jars and 600g plastic tubs after routine internal quality checks identified traces of salmonella in a small number of products.
Still doesn't solve my problem but at least now I know why0 -
Switch to Marmite then

Too salty for my liking. And I also read the other day that LEA's have withdrawn it from school dinners / breakfast clubs for high salt content.
Not sure about buying the plastic tubs of Bovril in Costco now either.0
