Today’s generation are probably much more likely to indulge in the frivolous pastime of Marmite Beating, like fan Peter Kingsland, who told John Peel hosting a BBC Radio 4’s Home Truths programme that what you have to do is place a small dollop of marmite on the side of your breakfast plate and gently beat it with a knife until it turns from brown to light brown and eventually to white. ‘Oh yes it does,’ he assured him, in case he thought it was a hoax.

However, he warned that ‘this is an activity only to be undertaken as a student or if you are detained at Her Majesty's Pleasure for some considerable time, as it literally takes hours to reach the ultimate goal of turning your marmite white!’ Apparently, there is also a Marmite Beaters Club for people who had achieved the requisite shade of white.

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 25 November 2004 10:29 (twenty-one years ago)

er, Han Solo action figure, of course.

― jel, Thursday, 25 November 2004 10:37 (twenty-one years ago)

22. Tobacco

(PS Considering putting my wife's electric toothbrush in the Marmite jar later, see if I can get The Whiteness. This has captured my imagination - it's like some modern day alchemical quest.)

― NickB (NickB), Thursday, 25 November 2004 10:47 (twenty-one years ago)

That candy substance that pops in your mouth - make it a real taste explosion!

― He's allergic to lettuce (Mark C), Thursday, 25 November 2004 10:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Space Dust. My friend tried sniffing that once and almost blew his brains out.

― NickB (NickB), Thursday, 25 November 2004 10:50 (twenty-one years ago)

This Marmite racism must be investigated.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 25 November 2004 11:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I wonder what would happen if you beat Matt DC for a few hours?

― He's allergic to lettuce (Mark C), Thursday, 25 November 2004 11:46 (twenty-one years ago)

that's an odd thing to wonder

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 25 November 2004 11:49 (twenty-one years ago)

25. Whiskey

― Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Thursday, 25 November 2004 13:53 (twenty-one years ago)

I would carbonate EVERYTHING! Is that why I'm called to thread?

First up, though:

29. Gin and lime juice (I know gin was said, but not "and lime juice").
30. Melted Breyer's vanilla ice cream for a real cream soda.

In the world where this is not a little soda making machine but a wand of fizzabulation which will work on solids etc:

31. Dark chocolate
32. Ginger Altoids
33. Bacon
34. Grapes. I mean, you pop a grape in your mouth, you get that skin-popping juice explosion and all, BUT WITH BUBBLES
35. Likewise clementines
36. And pineapple chunks, although I actually have pineapple chunks in my fridge, soaked in tequila, that already do this. You have not had fermented pineapple juice until you've had fermented pineapple juice still in the fruit, let me tell you.
37. Black currants + fizzabulation = VIMTOIDS.
38. Panna cotta.

― Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 25 November 2004 14:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Tep in #29 you figured out how to carbonate a gimlet, Philip Marlowe's favorite drink. Therefore you must be kissed again and again and again while the red winds of the Santa Ana swoop down and remind you that humanity is a flawed thing, a wrong thing, and if you didn't have the L.A. desert to remind you of that then maybe the bloody tattoo being inscribed on your face by the fat brush-cut cop's white knuckles would do all the reminding you need, but he's just a cop and all cops are the same, ugly and brutal and sad like all of us, we're all the same, what's with you tonight anyway, are you remembering that people are just people and why should it be you and I and the cop and the Santa Ana winds and the taste of gimlet in my wrecked mouth and Terry and everybody should get along so awfully

― Haibun (Begs2Differ), Thursday, 25 November 2004 14:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Them's some fine ass bubbles.

I'd like rto second tomato juice

also, there is a company marketing (or trying to) carbonated vodka at the moment.

gravy would be nice with a little fizz, as would the white of a fried egg

This is apropos of nothing but the comment above on grapes. Storing grapes in the freezer makes for great grapes. Try it!

Ha! I beat ya with the pasties!

(I do actually have one of those Sodastream machines somewhere at the back of a cupboard, maybe I should dig it out and try some of these suggestions? I rather like the sound of Tep's fizzed-up gin + lime one)

― C J (C J), Thursday, 25 November 2004 18:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Apparently Heston Blumenthal has made fizzy fruit. Mmmmmmm . . . . wierd.

― Bernard the Butler (Lynskey), Thursday, 25 November 2004 18:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Isn't fizzy fruit just another description for fruit which has gone off and is fermenting? I've eaten peaches like that before, and it wasn't pleasant I can tell you.

― C J (C J), Thursday, 25 November 2004 18:05 (twenty-one years ago)

54. tea

― cis (cis), Thursday, 25 November 2004 18:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I think he injects the fruit with carbon dioxide or something. Then he probably serves it with a jam made of granite and human cheese.

Human cheese? You mean smegma? ew ew ew!

55. Minty mouthwash

63. Ham.
(I've been laughing about Carbonated Ham since I clicked on this thread. Tep's bacon idea comes in a close 2nd for pork-related carbonation humour though.)
