Do you know your Bovril history?
In 1871, a Scot named John Lawson Johnston won a 'canned beef' contract to feed Napoleon's troops with his invention "Johnston's Fluid Beef", the original name for his famous beef extract. Renamed Bovril in 1886, the Great British drink we know and love was born.
On Christmas Day in 1902, Captain Scott and Ernest Shackleton supped on a warming cup of Bovril after a chilling four-hour march across the South Pole.
In 1968, the year Bovril production moved from London to Burton on Trent, Burton Football Club was saved from relegation when Stevenage Town left the Southern League.
In 1994, enough Bovril drink was made to fill 90 million match day mugs!

Makes a nice savoury drink
I love this satisfying beefy drink Always bought a cup of this after goin swimming Dunking bread in I liked to use the cubes in cooking but cant find them in shops nowadays?
Love It
Soooo much nicer than marmite. Rich beefy flavour, great spreadable texture. Not to be beaten generously spread on a toasted English muffin with lashings of melted butter.
Yummy!!
I know a lot of people use this in cooking but I have it on toast with butter. Salty and rich, a little goes long way .
Started to use this a lot more now
This adds great flavour to many dishes and is very versatile. trying to eat less red meat so using chicken or turkey mince and adding a spoonful of Bovril gives it way more flavour.
Its no marmite
Taste is subjective I guess, but after trying this as an alternative to my regular Marmite on toast I was a bit disappointed - its thinner/runnier in consistency so doesn't lend itself to spreading on toast without dripping/running, and the flavour is a lot milder and more bland to my palate at least than Marmite. I'll stick to Marmite in future for toast topping and see if this is any better used in gravy, stock etc instead.
LOVE
Just love this on hot buttered toast. More flavourful and much less sharp than marmite.
