Basically, the other day I was at my friend's house and we was making lunch and I asked him what he had to put in sandwiches. He said "jam..peanut butter, pickle, cheese, marmite...I was like eww marmite and he couldn't believe I didn't like it...so i decided I would post a thread seeing whether most people like marmite or if they don't.  (pretty random eh?)

3,101   | I don't have Marmite, I have Vegemite. It was owned by Australia but for some odd reason the Americans bought it. The funny thing is that the Americans hate the stuff.  I have loved Vegemite since I was only small. It has a very strong taste but I rather like it. It's not a good idea to have a big spoon full of it though, that might be a bit gross. I don't have it as much as I used to but I still think it's great. It doesn't melt like butter and the toast stays nice and crunchy unlike butter. Butter makes my toast go all soggy and I can't stand that.  | ||||||||

I always spread on a lot aswell so there is no chance of the toast going soggy. Peanut Butter is quite thick and it tastes better than Vegemite or Marmite

183 | I love Marmite. I've tasted Vegemite before, it's not much different. Little thicker maybe. It gets my vote.

3,090 | I grew up on both, the odd thing was I preferred Marmite over Vegemite for the most part until recently I tried it for a change to remember what it tastes like and its not that differant, not quite as "tangy" though. Also I love it when my toast is soggy, I hate burnt and crusty toast.

1,536 | I go into withdrawl symptoms without Marmite. I was raised on the stuff, and love it. I don't like Vegemite at all, however. It's just not Marmite. It's far more solid, and doesn't taste as good. There is a difference between the two. We had to eat Vegemite when we were in Spain; toast just isn't the same without Marmite. Seriously. Import it or something.

7,687 | I apparently loved Marmite as a baby. Funny, considering I now abhor the stuff. I guess I'm one of few Marmite cases, but yeah... I really just hate the stuff now. It's like pickle, mixed with shit. In my opinion. Man, I just... don't have anything else to say. I feel like I'm spamming... I need to wash myself clean of this short post!!

629 | I knew my grandma would agree with me!  I didn't think there was much of a difference between Marmite and vegemite but it looks like there is. Wow I've learned something I didn't expect to learn from this thread.

727  | I see it all the time at the grocery store, but I've yet to get the nerve up to try it. I hear it's really salty. I like salt, but not alot of it. I also hate when the margerine turns the toast soggy. Although, if you use the right kind of it, it won't make it go like that. I find that the best one is the original Becel, in the yellow tub. Yummy yummy. Has anyone tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter? My friend says it's to die for.
