What a pathetic country we have become with people worried about the loss of a few products , if there isn't any Marmite you eat something else .
Heaven knows how many of the present day population would have coped with the rationing during and just after the war when I was born.
The choice is this, am I prepared to go without a few things and pay more for others in order to extricate the country from a corrupt club, an easy yes for me.
And before anyone says 'think of the poor' I am technically one of them . However I have learned to live on very little, most people could if they made the effort.

Tesco do their own brand of yeast extract anyway. I haven't tried it but read it's just about impossible to tell the difference between that and Marmite:http://www.tesco.com/groceries/produ.../?id=276976038
