Where can I get the Australian version: Vegemite? I know marmite well, but truly Vegemite beats it hands down. Technically the same product, but you must try Vegemite it's so much better.

I just wanted to start by responding to some of the claims made here. Firstly, you do not need to be a particular nationality or type of person to like Marmite. That's just ridiculous. Secondly, it is not a "cultural thing" to enjoy savory or "umami" foods, any more than it is cultural to like sweet, sour, bitter, or salty flavors. You either like it or you don't. Does everyone like double fudge ice cream? Incredibly, no. I find Marmite delicious, but potent. I think many times people don't enjoy it because they've eaten a gob straight from the jar or they spread it like jam. That's too much! Try it spread very thinly or add a SMALL dollop to your savory sauces and stocks. I highly recommend trying it. You may love it. If not, at least admit it's a matter of preference rather than rant like a xenophobic donkey's rump.

I am told that if you are from England (or Australia) then you will LOVE this product. However, if you are from America, you will NOT like this, so don't even bother. If your curiosity happens to get the better of you (as mine did), its definitely fun to buy something so international and my kids had a blast laughing at how gross it looked, smelled, and tasted. Once the novelty wore off, the jar was stored with other little used items and will probably be thrown away very soon. Happy tasting!

Although not for everyone (many people seem almost allergic to the stuff), I'm very fond of it - having been raised eating it. For those who can appreciate the strange flavor, it's a very good spread (preferrable to vegemite in my opinion). But definitely approach with caution, as it's something of an acquired taste.

I was first given this treat on a trip through England when the B&B owner offered me some for my breakfast. She had a sly grin on her face, and now I know she was expecting me to react like most Yanks do, but she and I were both surprised. A tiny dab of this stuff on the corner of a piece of toast was sheer heaven to me. I felt a sense of wellbeing spreading from my mouth throughout my body. I know that sounds a bit extreme, but that's really how it felt!
All my life I've craved savory flavors and have been drawn to foods such as red meat (preferably scorched on the outside), tomatoes, mushrooms, and dark green vegetables - I'll take one saltine cracker over a handful of cookies any day of the week. Well, come to find out, Marmite is high in the "fifth flavor" umami, and that's what I'm always trying to find in my food. It's "that flavor I'm looking for" distilled down into a little brown jar. Mind you, it's strong stuff; a little dab will satisfy all your red meat cravings (though it contains not one spec of any animal product) but more than a dab is really just 'way too strong, even for a savory-food-lover like me. Spread it THIN! It's great spread nearly transparently over toast or crackers, and a couple of drops will make any insipid canned broth lot more hearty.
Caution: if you own a cat, make sure to wash your hands after eating Marmite. Apparently they go for it, too, and will try very enthusiastically to remove your fingers and run away with them if any trace is remaining on your hands!
