| | |  | Gifts | | Home » » | | | | | | | Description: | | The basic production method has changed little since Marmite was first invented. Basically, the used brewer's yeast is broken down to release soluble amino acids and proteins. This soluble material is then concentrated and filtered a few times before going through a unique (and top secret) process for flavour development. At the end of all this, we end up with yeast extract paste - nearly Marmite but not quite. The finishing touches make all the difference. We add an extra blend of vitamins, vegetable and spice extracts to create the taste your mouth adores! | | | Features: | |
• Marmite 500g

Marmite is the best - but watch for the shipping costsNov 30, 2009
The 500g bottle has a $10+ shipping and handling tag, making it simpler and possibly cheaper to pick it up at a local grocery store. We have a number of stores in the (SF) bay area that carry Marmite.

 Keep an open mindOct 08, 2009
When you open your jar, you won't get too far by just digging in. You will wear a grin by spreading it thin. On toast you will get the most out of your expenditure; this culinary adventure is quite tasty, I can boast. IF you please, you can eat it with cheese, it really doesn't taste gross.
Marmite Yum Yum (Vegemite too)Sep 25, 2009
I have never been outside the U.S. and I don't think I have a drop of British or Australian blood, but I love both Marmite and Vegemite, and get both at World Market (formerly Cost Plus World Market) for about $5 a jar. Marmite is more syrupy and salty than Vegemite / Vegemite is more solid and less salty (but still quite salty) than Marmite. VEGANS TAKE NOTE : both are good sources of vegan B vitamins, but Vegemite lacks the crucial B12 and Marmite HAS B12.

I love marmiteAug 07, 2009
I'm American and have never been to the UK. I don't even remember how or why I first tried Marmite. Years ago anyway. I love it. Loooooooooove it. If you like salty flavors and like chips over sweets, then you'll probably like this. Very salty and slightly meaty flavored. And it is vegan. My dad says it tastes like an old barn smells. He may be right. I guess I like the taste of an old barn.

Best spread thin with butterJul 16, 2009
Admittedly Marmite is an acquired taste, but many Americans who dislike it are just trying it wrongly. You spread it really thin, over butter (bread can be toast or bread - both are good), not thick, like peanut butter (it is a strong flavour). Our house is never without a jar and it's a staple of lunchbox sandwiches. The 500g jar is the best - fewer corners to try & scrape out.
