Marmite, which is similar to vegemite & yeast extract, is one of those things that you either love or hate; I have yet to come across anyone who says “marmite’s ok I suppose”. You have folk like me who love the stuff, and then everyone else who’re very vociferous in their dislike of the black gooey stuffReactions range from “yuch”, through “you couldn’t pay me enough”, and on to other statements that are not printable

    I am amazed about how Marmite supports such strong feelings! And now, Marmite Rice cakes …. yummy?

    Love your Stormtrooper plate; and the Prince song. I feel very retro this morning!

    Well, Jez, I hadn’t had marmite for years but since starting a plant-based diet, have returned to it as a good source of B12. No day passes without a blackened knife.

    Okay- you asked. My answer: Marmite is okay, I guess. 🙂 I really am sitting on the fence here. I eat it and quite enjoy it occasionally but when I buy a glass (which is not easy in Germany) it wanders to the back of the cupboard and I rediscover it months later … Meanwhile, in my corner of the wood: https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2020/08/24/im-a-fan-of-emmer/
