I'd eat it....when you need marmite on toast, you NEED marmite on toast.
My main concern is how the poor jar has been sat unloved for over 3 years???If my words are missing letters then please excuse me....my keyboard is a tad dodgy!!0 -
I felt really sick when I ate a slice of toast then saw that the Marmite expiry date was 2 years ago!!!! However I think this was psychological as I'd been eating it for ages with no ill effects. I acquired mine when I was slimmer of the week at slimming world (someone had put it in the basket- cheeky sod).0

OK... I've just checked the date on my marmite (purely for the purposes of this thread)
May 2005:o
but its still perfectly edible... and I'm nearly at the end of a vast jar, so I expect it'll be finished in early 2011...0 -
Thanks for that edifying input Penny
I don't think I've ever checked the date on marmite... I assumed it was like tar and lasted forever. But I'd eat it... and cook with it... actually mostly I eat it on it's own, probably when I need salt (I do the same with gentleman's relish - Penny probably doesn't like that either:D)
Actually, I do like Gent's relish and Worcs sauceI like Twiglets too

I've just bought a jar of 'special edition' Marmite which promises to be extra strong. I expect I'll eat it just as fast as every other jar I buy - it never gets a chance to become that old round here !0
