**Shortage of Marmite**

Am thankful I have 2-3 month supply left, but after that what?

South African or British source?

Plenty in Oz still, I think... (we're apostate Vegemite-eaters at our place)

I'm suggesting this change to the church manual committee GC in 2015.

10. Do you believe that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and that you are to honor God by caring for your body, avoiding the use of that which is harmful, abstaining from all unclean foods, from the use, manufacture, or sale of alcoholic beverages, the use, manufacture, or sale of tobacco in any of its forms for human consumption, from the misuse of, or trafficking in, narcotics or other drugs and from the use, manufacture, or sale of Marmite, in all forms?,

As Brit I guess I'm not that qualified to talk about taste but Marmite? ...... Yeast extract?

Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.

Stan,

I have a special supply of Vegemite coming in from Oz in August...I can probably get a few extra jars for you.....at a good price, of course [he says rubbing his hands together].....

Does the church subsidize the production of Marmite?

Look at what levels church workers stoop to. Trading, in what should be, illegal substances.

If they run out of slime in NZ - we have lots of it here in the States with our beef industry.

Swear I've told this story here before, but one of my Dad's jobs used to be driving a truck for Sanitarium, the church-owned health food company in Australia and New Zealand. I still remember going with him one evening as he drove a tanker truck to the local brewery to fill it with a load of exhausted beer yeast, to be taken back to the Sanitarium factory and turned into Marmite. Good thing I don't believe in guilt by association. ;-)

Yeah well - some of us here do and now we will have to keep our eyes out for you. Bringing beer to an Adventist institution - for shame.

a load of exhausted beer yeast,

Aha! I knew it. I knew the problem was more than just the taste. Case closed.

PINK SLIME is not the same as brown slime...
