The other day, I made some Marmite-on-bread (with butter, of course) for Jason, out of one of the otherwise-useless bread-ends (not that all bread-ends are useless, but this one was particularly puny). Being an American, Jason didn't like it (not surprisingly). I believe "gross" was the word he used ;). Marmite is quite popular in Britain, but most Americans are appalled by it, for some reason.
Marmite is definitely a love-it-or-hate-it type of food. I fall into the former category while Jason falls into the latter. But, come on, it's a by-product of beer sludge — what's not to like? <g>
You’re gross, Alex.
Eating marmite is something akin to making a paste out of a (very salty) dead rodent and spreading it on your bread.
Not to offend you or your parents, of course, but that stuff is all kinds of gross.
That’s disgusting! *eck….retch….puuuuuuuuuke*
Pay no attention to those comments. I’m American, born and raised, and I think Marmite is wonderful! I love it on buttered toast, bagels, sandwiches. I love Vegemite, too. My local grocery store has Marmite, and I can find Vegemite at the local World Market.
