New Zealand - Sanitarium Marmite Spread 250g.

Tastes good, lasts forever, and a damn good replacement for vegimite

Love some marmite!

Love it !!!!

I only recently started using yeast spreads, and I'll offer one of the more impartial opinions. So what is Marmite like and how does it compare to Vegemite? The first thing I noticed about Marmite is like a grease while Vegemite is like a solid fudge. Marmite is thick enough that you could turn the jar upside down and it wouldn't fall out, but eventually it would eventually submit to gravity. This makes it easier to spread on toast compared to Vegemite.Taste:Of the two, Marmite is far more palatable to your average person. It's sweeter than Vegemite, and it's more neutral. I like Vegemite too, but if I were to introduce a person to a yeast spread, I'd use this stuff because it's easier to enjoy.Vegemite has a strong salty taste, you can easily overpower what you use it on if you add too much. Marmite is not as potent.My verdict is that if you want to try a yeast spread, start out with this stuff. It's much more forgiving if you use too much, and the plastic jar means you wont have to worry about it breaking in shipping (I prefer vegemite glass jar, but I've had jars break). If you like vegemite you'll be fine with Marmite (you might have preferences, but this stuff wont disgust you). If you hate Marmite, you'll hate Vegemite for sure.

Very good ! Otherwise unavailable to me .

This product has an awful chemical like taste that is nothing like the original marmite which I am huge fan of. It lacks the distinctive umami flavor and saltiness that makes marmite so addictive. Fans of the original will know what I mean.

Slightly sweeter than the original British version. This one is easy to spread and absolutely packed with yummy umami flavor. My favorite way to eat it is on buttered toast with eggs. I also use it in any beefy soup or stew as well. Of course, it takes a grilled cheese sandwich to excellence too.

As far as I can recall, this does taste exactly like authentic New Zealand Marmite just like my New Zealand friend brought with him from home when he came to visit recently. It's very salty and makes for a good light snack over some crackers, although the taste is a bit of an acquired one.
