Numbers count. And they show that a lot of what we write about in TGIFood touches a nerve with our loyal reader base. Here’s what you all read the most in 2022.
A hundred thousand views is a lot for any sector of Daily Maverick and for my modest little corner of it to produce those numbers, well, it was a feel-good moment when our Marmite stories became among the top reads across all platforms.
Bianca wrote: Peck’s Anchovette and Redro fish paste are the latest casualties of product discontinuations or shortages, following the great Marmite debacle of 2021 and the earlier disappearance of Nestlé’s Chocolate Log. As a consolation, TGIFood brings you a recipe for making your own fish paste. But not your own Marmite.
My colleague Anna Trapido always delivers a good story, always thorough in content and depth, and always on the money. This piece amassed 49,258 reads and was the July edition of her regular Scoff column for TGIFood. I wrote: We think of the Karoo as koppie-punctuated Platteland and endless scrubby veld. But there’s a vast swathe of it that hugs the coastline. It even stretches well into the Sperrgebiet and the arid strangeness of southern Namibia. The Karoo I called home. My birthright Karoo.Near the Brinsmead piano in a corridor at the Royal Hotel in Willowmore hangs this painting of the inn.
I wrote: The tar-black paste that we smear on toast has its roots, not in vegetables, but in beef. Even though there’s none in it. It’s no coincidence that Marmite tastes beefy, even though it is made entirely of vegetable matter. It owes its invention to a German scientist who formulated a way to manufacture beef extracts, which led to the development of the Oxo brand of beef court bouillon cube.
