This came to me while I was eating dinner and musing over expat life. In the style of Dr Seuss. I hope you enjoy!
'Marmite! Marmite? What is that?'
Shriek the girls in my Italian flat.
'How do you eat it? What do you do?
It looks untrustworthy through and through!'
'Well now I'll tell you,' and their heads I pat,
'It's good with eggs, on toast that's flat.
It's good with cheese, and on its own.
Even on a ricecake - one mustn't moan!
It's good with beans for a flavoursome lunch -
Relax, my dear, that face you scrunch.
It's good in soups, chillies, stews - all kinds of fayre!
In truth wherever love is, you'll find Marmite there.'
