[Food] Do you like Marmite and Vegemite?

[Bozza]

I'm a big Marmite fan. Love the stuff.

A jar of Vegemite appeared in the house last week. I recall not liking it, but the last time I tried it was years ago, so I thought I'd give it a go. "How dissimilar could it be?" I thought to myself.

Very is the answer. It's vile.

Where do you stand on this one?

 

[TomandJerry]

A no in both camps

 

[Mellotron]

Marmite is glorious. Been developing an addiction as I need a little bit more each time.

I love Marmite... but have never tried Vegemite. How do I vote?

 

[PWA]

Love Marmite.

Agreed. Pisspoor imitation of the real thing.

Can't stand either of them, find them too sweet - has to be Bovril for me.

 

[MattBackHome]

Thank you for adding that option... vote cast.

From the looks of your post, I may be best advised to give Vegemite a swerve.

I do like a bit of Bovril on toast occasionally too.

Never tried vegemite. Marmite essential here to make flavourless cheese taste like cheese

Yep This!
Tried Vegemite once about 20 years ago. Never again. Disgusting stuff.

Marmite on the other hand, just gets better and better.

Totally agree. I remember when Vegemite first appeared in this country and my Mum got some because her Aussie mate had been raving about it. It was rank and I've never tried it again since. Marmite is amazingly good though.

 

[daveinprague]

Marmite, is a very British thing though. Foreigners are horrified by it.
My GF opened a jar and smelled it, looked at me with wide eyes, and just said... you barbarian

Love Bovril

 

[GT49er]

Vegemite's OK, quite eatable, just not as good as Marmite.

 

[chaileyjem]

What about Bovril ? I love Bovril.

 

[Notters]

Same as you Bozza.

I seem to remember vegemite having a weird texture as well?

I used to not like Marmite (as a child), but now do. I've never tried Vegemite. Is it similar?
