O.K. so I know this is really a sad expat thing- There is nothing about British (Welsh!!) food that I miss but I really need to get my hands on some of the brown stuff! Anyone out there seen or heard of its existance here or got a jar they don't need?? Thanks!!

Scraping the rim of the toilet seat can often produce marmite like substances
