doctormann Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 My moo of a wife has just thrown out my last jar of Frank Cooper's Oxford Marmalade - and it was only about 10% used and in perfect condition! For this unforgivable sin she will have to be terminated with extreme prejudice but that is not really the point. Has anyone seen Frank Cooper's Marmalade - of whatever cut - in any of the shops in the Pattaya/Jompthien area? I've seen some poor imitations from time to time but I crave the real stuff. I know it's going to be expensive but it's a must-have item! Thanks, DM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulbrun Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 (edited) My wife threw out a bottle of expensive Paul Mitchell Tea Tree oil shampoo, that I have been using sparingly, because I have no idea where to buy more..? I was/am furious about it. I shudder to think what else has been binned in my absence, that I have not yet noticed..! PS. I also have two jars of Frank Cooper's marmalade, that are hidden at the back of a cupboard in the kitchen. I just went to check that they are still there..!

JohnOX4 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I've never seen Frank Cooper's marmalade anywhere in Thailand. Even the biggest and supposedly best supermarkets in Bangkok don't choose to stock it ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we see some of their products in Thailand, there is hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theoldgit Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Whilst it's not Frank Coopers marmalde, Tesco have started selling an imported own label "Thick Cut Orange Shred" marmalade for 99 Baht, and it's pretty good. Somebody mentioned it on TV a couple of months back, I found some in their Rama IV on Saturday, they only had a couple jars left - at least they did until I got there.

I'll certainly check that out next time I'm in Tesco. Can't go wrong at that price, if they actually have any. We have two large Tescos in Pattaya, as well as the usual plethora of Tesco Express shops, which sell very little, so I could be in with a chance.
