    Sure! In fact, forget the toast. I'll just put the marmite on the malteaser's and curly wurly's. (It'll save on packaging).

    marmite is so evil that Hitler used to worship it... he had a little yeasty shrine that he would kneel before and sacrifice nuns in honour of it's evilness...

    Marmite rocks! I might go and make me some marmite on toast...

    As for the marmite Vs vegemite thing:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmite

    "The British version is a sticky, dark brown paste with a distinctive, powerful taste. Being both extremely salty and extremely umami, the taste of Marmite is comparable to soy sauce. This distinctive taste is reflected in the British company's marketing slogan: "Love it or hate it". It is similar to the Australian Vegemite, Swiss Cenovis. Bovril is a similar looking spread made from beef.

    This distinctive product was originally British, but a version with a noticeably different taste has been manufactured in New Zealand since 1919, and this is the dominant version in New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands."

    So, the marmite we're talking about is essentially your vegemite. Wikipedia says it, therefore, it's true! :D

    weirdly enough a man came up to me last night... he said to me:-

    "if you dont eat this jar of marmite then i'm going to rip of all your face skin and then rub your face in a basin of salt and then i'll poke 2833 cocktail sticks into each eye and each cocktail stick will have been rolled in salty poo beforehand" ok my eyes hurt today and i look weatherbeaten... but it was the best choice on offer.



    that is how disgusting this product is... my wife loves it as well :confused:

    No. I was just thinking I'd do the same thing.

    It's like if you drop food on the floor. You just blow off the fluff and cat hair and serve it up. ;)
