What's the British beef extract? I've never heard of such a thing. I know Marmite, though..

Bovril, often consumed in liquid form at football matches, because this country's food food culture has come a long way, but still needs to remember it's roots

Interesting. I've heard of drinking buillon, it used to be a thing around these parts.

Is that part of their "brown sauce" or whatever it is? I'm fairly inexperienced in British cuisine.

During the BSE scare, Bovril temporarily switched to a beef-free product. It was Marmite in a Bovril jar.
