Anyone else like Marmite?

I'm just sitting here reading these posts and eating cream cheese and Marmite

on crackers and I was wondering if folks here liked this vile stuff as much as I do.

Brings back memories - haven't eaten marmite for years - but I used to quite like it when I was a kid.

Never liked the stuff. No wiser words spoken than Marmite and vile

You didn't get some for Valentine's Day? Nothing says I love you like Marmite. I haven't tried it in years.

Stolen picture from another site where the same thing popped up almost as if by some evil plot.

I prefer Vegemite, but Marmite will do if I can get any. Luckily there is an English store nearby that sells both. Marmite is a bit more liquid than Vegemite which is more like soft butter. It is dark brown, and some think it's a chocolate spread - hance the shock with the salty cheesy beefy taste.

It's actually a Yeast extract, made from -get this- the residue scrapings inside the barrell of either Beer, Ale, or Stout(?) I really can't remember. Loaded with Iron, Niacin, all kinds of Vitamins. Tastes slightly like a Boullion cube. "Newbies" usually hate it. An American friend once pronounced; "It looks like cat sh** and tastes like it! A female friend started screaming something about "being violated"! after I gave her some.....

Being raised with it, served on buttered toast is the next best thing to heaven! I love it!

My niecephew loves the stuff, and also Vegemite. She's very picky about what she eats too. It's not bad... I eat orange peals and brush my teeth with baking soda and dish soap, so what do I know...
