Family Find Jesus Living In Marmite Jar
JESUS has been in Claire Allen’s marmite. He’s been living in her Marmite jar.
Claire Allen: Waiter
Waiter: Modom
CA: What’s this Jesus doing in my Marmite?
Waiter: Waiting for some toast, modom…
Says Claire Allen’s husband, of Ystrad, Rhondda:
“The kids are still eating it, but we kept the lid… Claire saw it first and called her dad to come and take a photo of it.
“When I first looked at it I wasn’t sure, but when I moved it away from me it started coming out. I thought yeah, she’s right - that’s the image of Jesus.”
Mrs Allen says her 14-year-old son Jamie also has Jesus in his Marmite:
“Straight away Jamie said ‘that looks like God’, and my other boys (Robbie, four, and Tomas, 11) even said they could see a face. People might think I’m nuts, but I like to think it’s Jesus looking out for us.
“We’ve had a tough couple of months; my mum’s been really ill and it’s comforting to think that if he is there, he’s watching over us.”
Not that you can see that much from inside a lid of Marmite, especially when it’s screwed atop a jar of the black stuff…
But hold on a mom! It might not be Jesus… It might be… Oooer! It’s… him!

It’s not well known but Marmite did originally feature in the New Testament. At the famed feeding of the 5000. The original version said that the only food they had was 5 loaves, two fishes and a family jar of marmite. This was left out of the King James version by someone who couldn’t believe that any of the 5000 would have eaten it.
From the Apocrypha Tobit 5:2
2:The day would have passed without rancour
As the sermon unfolded to plan
But then Jesus brought out the marmite
And all of the trouble began.
3: ‘It’s the food of the gods’ said some Philistine sods
And the Israelites started to split.
For half of them thought it was manna
And the other half thought it was sh*t!
