If I ever have an upset stomach and can't face food, I
resort to drinking weak black tea and eating thin crackers with a smear of Marmite
on them.I'm not sure if it makes any
medical sense but it seems to work.What
do you do?
PSWe Kiwis (New Zealanders) love our
Marmite.In Australia their favourite
spread is Vegemite – which is similar but different.Both are very strong tasting spreads and need
to be used sparingly!
When I went to Uni and lived in digs, my Mum said to my landlady "If she is ever upset, give her tea, toast and Marmite" Forty years on, this remedy still works!! I tried Vegemite, but don't really get on with it.
Growing up my mother always used to make me cream of chicken soup and with it I used to have a packet of ready salted crisps. I don't know if it really makes me feel better or if its just nostalgia but I get it myself when I feel ill now.

Drink mint or ginger tea to settle tummy aches... Ginger is great for relieving nausea and motion sickness too.
ReplyDeleteUpset tummy? I like to drink Peppermint tea or nibble on crystallized ginger (in lieu of that, I sip on ginger ale.)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up, Carole!
ReplyDeleteHave a great Christmas!
