The Devil Made Me Do It

I sent out for marmite. That’s vegemite to you Aussies but with a better name and a better image:

Anyway, I admit that my taste buds might have started out German but have mutated.

    1. Oh! I was always told that Vegemite was the same as Marmite. I’ve never had Vegemite. Teaches me to check my sources before I comment! – I’m also told that there was a yeast spread in German (which I’ve never tried either) but it didn’t catch on. Very probably it tasted differently as well.

      1. Nooo. I think they have very similar ingredients, but the taste is quite different. If you get the chance, try it and see what you think. I don’t think Marmite-related products would catch on anywhere without a large British presence.

      2. It’s a staple, I guess, in South Africa. That’s how I got to know it. Vegemite is about double the price in Germany than Marmite but it is available.

    1. I’ll have a look out. In Darmstadt (about 35km to the north from here) there used to be an Australian pub which dabbles a bit in Australian wares. Maybe it’s still there when I pass there next.

    1. Maybe you should count yourself lucky. Marmite used to advertise with “You either hate or you love it” and many people feel that if you are on the love side, you’re corrupted. 😉
