Never had it, but it sounds to me like it's an English Poi vs Hawaiian Poi  

for fear of sounding retarded... no, scratch that, I don't care, what the hell is Poi?!! 

Funny. That's how I feel about vegemarmite.
By the way, I've had Poi and it's not high on my list.

Marmite is undigestible by all humans except for the British.

They actually sell Marmite online by the case for homesick expat Brits.

They, and Anglophiles, are probably the only pruchasers!

Hawaiian Poi

thanks JB, you can keep ya poi... it looks like pink wallpaper paste!  
I'm sure some people find it delicous though

MagmaBabe - Poi taste like pink wallpaper paste to.  You just got to be Hawaiian to love it, just like SPAM in the can... they love the stuff.

There are license plate holders that say "Got Poi?" or "Got Spam?"  I was thinking that you could make up one called "Got Marimite?"

Something like these:


But if you do, you got to have the British Jack all the way around the plate frame.

I'm an Anglophile but Marmite is one of the things I don't like.  Give me a cup of PG Tips and a McVities chocolate digestive biscuit and I'm good to go.

Spam is another oddity that the Brits seem to like.  I know we can't blame them for introducing it -- the US Army was the culprit behind that particular eh delicacy     but I've only known a few people would actually admit to eating and liking the stuff and they were all Brits.

Another "delicacy" I saw in the UK was the "Olive - Pimento - Cheese" loaf.  It seemed to appear at every breakfast.

OMG!! I used to LOVE spam fritters when I was twee and in junior school! wouldn't touch 'em now though.
Come to think of it... I remember seeing spam in the film '50 first dates', I'm sure of it...
they probably really appreciate Monty Pythons ode to spam over there in Hawaii then! 

yeah, I can totally visualise that licence plate holder, it would rock!
