When you said you kept it next to your marmite, I was wondering if you spread this on toast as well...lol.
I have never known anyone to make stock from Bovril. It would be too overpowering, I think. It has a very strong flavour. Nothing like you get from a stock cube.
Both Bovril and Marmite are used in the same ways. They are both spread on toast and used to make a drink. Drinks are more common with the Bovril; on toast more common with Marmite. Bovril drink are de rigeur at football (what you might call 'soccer') grounds.
Bovril even mentions the drink on the label by saying "Simply add one good teaspoon [to boiling water]", while Marmite also suggests adding it to hot water, surprisingly for soup. I've only known people to drink it as a hot drink.
