Marmite: Love It or Hate It?

I have been a fan of Marmite for years, mostly having it on toast.

I like Marmite, but the one thing I don't like is Marmite on toast, because it reminds me of when I was a child and had gastroenteritis. There was a limit to what I could eat when I was sick, and Marmite on toast was one of the things my mother used to give me.

I use Marmite to round off a cheese sauce when cooking. I also like it on Matzos.

Or I eat it neat, on a spoon. My brother and I had a ritual around that as children. He'd have to tell a whole long story before we could take the first lick.

PS: FWIW, I am a member of the Marmite fan page at Facebook.

me too!

I loooove Marmite, on toast with cheese, mmmm... it's the best meal in the world.

I add it to tomato sauce too sometimes. I sometimes eat it raw with a spoon like some people do with nutella

I only like it on toast, and only a very thin layer of it because I don't like it too strong. I eat vegemite usually but marmite it always an option.

On occasion.

uh I hate the stuff

It's called Vegemite here, I like it on toast

Hate it, horrible stuff.

yeah but Vegemite is solid, Marmite is runny

..... o.O You guys do know what Marmite means in french, do you? <.<

Yes thanks, it's a cooking pot.

The food itself? It's nice but nasty. I neither love it nor hate it.

When I was a tot, one of my favorite pastimes was to sniff what was in every container on my grandmother's spicerack. The one that was totally foul was a jar of marmite. I often invited other people to partake in this.

Myself, I prefer jalapenos and cheese on toast.

is this the stuff that's leftover from making beer? Never tried it, but it's on the list of haggis, cracklins, and sheeps' eyes of things I want not to try before I die...

Haven't tried marmite but I like vegemite, recently bought two jars when I found a store that sold it
