<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 118188, member: 44"]Agree Vitamin B supplement. Googling I found a pic of a Bemax jar, but it didn't take me to whatever it was. Supposely it was once on one of the European eBay sites. I did find Bemax mentioned in a 2004 comment on a UK Telegraph webpage saying it was a wheatgerm. Some used it porridge and stews. Seems it isn't made anymore with some finding "Jordans Natural Wheatgerm is just as good."</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/3313431/In-a-stew-Bemax.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/3313431/In-a-stew-Bemax.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/3313431/In-a-stew-Bemax.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here's a 1930s poster in the Musuem of London for Bemax.
