Sat Jul 04 18:14:06 -0700 2009 1090911 jnorton 1 4830809 Maybe the British Import shop in WEM? I got Paxo there. Their # is 780.443.3465 Sun Jul 05 08:59:38 -0700 2009 4830098 164007 Bryn 2 4834708 If you are in the east end, there is a butcher shop in Sherwood Park who carries many British products (Butcher Block beside the Home Depot on Baseline road). If he does not have it, I suspect he can get it. Mon Jul 06 16:52:20 -0700 2009 4830809 74367 foodiesnorth 3 4863687 Thanks. The British shop in WEM doesn't carry it, but I will try the Sherwood Park option. Thu Jul 16 07:43:25 -0700 2009 4834708 1090911 jnorton 1 4887658 try chinatown grocery store. Most Chinese grocery store will carry those.

They always have Marmite in stock, too, and Lyle's golden syrup.

The one we're looking for has a molasses consistency. A picture of it is posted below.

Bovril & its counterpart Marmite can be found at: Jacaranda Imports 3018A - 106 Street Edmonton, AB http://www.jimports.ca/ It says right on their website that they sell Bovril & Marmite when you check out the "Spreads" section description under the site map link. Definitely call before heading in, because they have the weirdest store hours I've ever seen; only open 3 days a week from 11am to 5pm on Wed, Fri & Sat. I'll be going there this weekend, I'll report back! Wed Aug 19 21:01:37 -0700 2009 4830098 230173 dingmah 2 4966742 Update: No Frills in Leduc sells Marmite. I just bought a few jars of it. Fri Aug 21 15:31:07 -0700 2009 4961182 230173 dingmah 3 4973301 Marmite is easy to get around here. Most Save-Ons have it (they stock it with the peanut butter). I grew up using Bovril as a broth base but would never put it on toast. That's what Marmite's for! We used to get English relatives to bring us big cans of Bovril when they came to visit. Jacaranda sounds kind of fun, but man, what a crap website. Mon Aug 24 12:16:50 -0700 2009 4966742 268953 Canadawg1 1 4970780 Call the Italian Centre.
