If vegemite was served in prisons, the ACLU would be filing lawsuits faster than a 2+2'er holding quad aces calling an all in re-raise.

Vegemite is gross on many levels. Not the least of which the label:

I've had it once, spread on hot buttered toast like I was told. Disgusting.

Is that true? Damn. Then which aussies eat that stuff? And is it the same for Marmite in the UK? Those Marmite commercials Ive seen online seem to try to take advantage of that fact that you either hate it, or love it.

I love marmite but I also like Bovril which is simiar type of thing but have it in drink, was brought up on that nighttime soccer matches with my dad we always had a flask of bovril for half time warming up. Marmite on toast is fantastic as are marmite crisps (chips). People say vegemite is the same as marmite but it isnt is completely horrible disgusting stuff.

Can get vegemite in most stores in the uk though so must be a market for it here.

BUt marmite is a love hate thing it seems.

Im in the UK, and i like peanut butter, but not many people seem to, certainly not as many as in the US, where, as i seem to remember, they were always making reference to peanut butter sandwiches on sesamee street. But yeah i've grown up with the stuff. I also like marmite, and i've grown up with that.
Not too sure bout vegemite though, what is it? Whats the difference between it and marmite?

I do like peanut butter as well but havent tried it with jam.

Vegemite I think is hard to describe but its a bitter and different consistency to marmite.
