Apparently there’s a shortage of Marmite and it’s causing concern for fans of the stuff.
But well played, The British Grocer! They have a Marmite lovers page where you can sign up to be informed when it’s back, so you can get your fix.
(Marmite haters will be turned away …)
We work hard at Brits in Toronto to scour the city and find the best curry so when we saw that Chunky — a pretty good brand — had deemed it necessary … some would say essential … to put Butter Chicken and vegetables into a soup version, we just had to try it.
The colour was on point, the kind of orangey-yellow you would expect and the consistency wasn’t too bad, but a little thick. Usually that works but not really in this case.
There was a decent amount of chicken pieces in there and the vegetables were OK too. Absolutely no spicy heat as to be expected on a Butter Chicken dish.
The consensus was that Chunky was trying to tick a “curry in a soup” box here but didn’t really pull it off. Kind of blah.
We give it a Brits in Toronto 1/5 stars.
Update November 1, 2020
The horror! Forgot we already reviewed this once already back in October 2018. Gave it the same score then too.
