I've never had it , but have wanted to try it.

From what I've read, marmite is more palatable though.

I've heard of it and it sounds ok, but have never tried it.

Are you talking about the NZ version of the UK version of marmite though. Otherwise said the UK marmite is pretty much exactly the same as Vegemite except maybe more spreadable and a slightly stronger flavour.

UK-Marmite is a little more bitter, in my experience.

Vegemite's okay, but a little strong for its flavor.

What does vegemite taste like?

 

[guyver01]

sometimes me glad me live in america... no wacky food spreads..



Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Why is it impossible to find it in the USA? I want to try it.

 

[Colt45]

they sell vegemite and marmite at safeway here (canada), so maybe they do in the states too?
