Alice, not liking something doesn't make you an oddball, it makes you an individual. I doubt there is anyone who likes every food. I know it makes life difficult for you at times. As clumsy says, the Spanish habit of spreading bread with olive oil is a great alternative.
Now people who like Marmite, they really are oddballs.

When my son was born he was rushed off to an isolation hospital in Sheffield at just 1 day old, complete with flashing lights ambulance and police escort. It transpired that he was born without the enzyme that deals with lactose. He was put on a food called Velactin, which was vile, it looked and smelt like water that potatoes had boiled into. For the next two years it was in and out of Sheffield childrens hospital, he couldn´t have milk or anything that contained milk. It got better as he got older and now, like me, the worst it does is cause bloating and upset stomach if too much food containing lactose is eaten or drunk. In my case I dislike butter and margarine and never put either on my toast or sandwich, the only milk I use is fully skimmed and that only on cereals or for cooking. If, as I do on occasion, have a little cream or ice cream it is only when in quick and easy reach of a toilet, believe me it really does work that fast. However this past couple of years our supermarkets have a really good range of lactose free milk, cheese and other products. The only cream I ever buy is Elm Lea which is none dairy and for me it is wonderful.

A nice way of making sandwiches without dairy is the Spanish way, a little olive oil with tomato rubbed over, it´s really very nice.

Clumsy, sorry to hear of the experience you had with your son. We don't realise how fortunate we are when lots of us can eat most foods without any after effect.

I just hate the taste of butter.

The olive oil and tomato sounds good. I love them both, so will give it a try

I love Marmite, as you know

Nothing like toast with marmite soldiers, dipped in a boiled egg - ahhhhh bliss

Lard. That stuff will stick to your ribs nicely.

What is vegemite, marmite & marmite soldiers please?
