Love it. Have it every day.

TulipsDaffsAndSunshine · 25/03/2026 14:25

On seedy bread with avocado on top.
Or on a crumpet with butter.
Yum!

Love it with butter on toast/crumpets.

Love a Marmite and tomato sandwich, too. Fabulous.

Drinking it/putting it sauces or pasta: no from me.

Vegemite is VILE. An Aussie in law kindly gave us some when she visited. We all wanted to like it. We all loathed it. Dh won't throw it away as it was a gift, so it lurks in the cupboard. One day it may unfortunately fall out into the bin.

LOVE! Our local bakery does a cheese and marmite sourdough, with swirls of marmite running through it and big globs of cheese that melt when you toast it. It is DIVINE.

LOVE marmite, I have it on toast at least 5 days a week. Yum 😋

chellewillnotbebeaten · 25/03/2026 15:04

Love! I can eat it off the spoon 🤣

Big Marmite fan here, but it's only fair to say that the Aldi and Tesco own brand versions are just as good. And I agree that Vegemite is awful. Sorry to all the Aussie Mumsnetters, but you don't know what you're missing.

Ooh sounds nice with avocado

Absolutely love it, especially on toast with cheese, but sadly I can’t eat it any more because it’s too salty (health problems).

I love it too , like pp I think it goes really well with eggs , so my weekend breakfast is poach eggs on buttered and marmite toast.
I buy standard jars about once a month but a couple of times a year buy a jar of XO 😋

I know this goes against their whole advertising message, but I think it’s….fine. Take it or leave it. Don’t love it or hate it.

I’m the same and know others who think it’s ok and neither love it or hate it. I eat it for the vitamins as I don’t mind the taste.

diamondsandbluejeans · 25/03/2026 15:42

Hate it. 🤢 But not as much as I hate when people say ‘I’m like Marmite, you either love me or you hate me,’ thinking they’re being dead original. 🙄

twilightcafe · 25/03/2026 15:43

With peanut butter on hot toast. Halo

LostThestral · 25/03/2026 15:52

Absolutely adore it & would eat it every day if I could (low salt diet)

favourite is marmite with Philadelphia or marmite on toast with poached egg

Love Marmite and this recipe is delicious.

Have you tied the ruffle marmite? Goes great with pasta

Marmite is ok but Vegemite is better.

I love Marmite, I eat it straight out of the jar.
I love gherkins, olives etc. strong flavours.

I thought I must surely love Vegemite, must be lovely.
Bought a jar when it was on offer, it was horrible!
The consistency is very strange, it doesn't break down in your mouth. I don't think you can compare the two.

No! Thanks for the suggestion. Sounds delicious 😋

Laiste · 25/03/2026 16:43

God damn you now i want marmite!

Not eating bread at the mo (😭) what can i have it on ? my fingers ?!

ginasevern · 25/03/2026 16:49

I wouldn't eat it every day, or even every month but I do like it. I particularly like it on roasted cauliflower.

CheddarCheeseAndCrispSandwich · 25/03/2026 16:51

Love Marmite, but my family hate it!

For years, I’ve kept my ‘Mum’s Legendary Roast Potato’ recipe a secret…everyone loves them and nobody can replicate them.

Of course, my ‘Secret Ingredient’ is Marmite! They’ve been eating them forever, without knowing that the delicious flavour, colour and texture is due to Marmite ☺️🤭

NicPapr25 · 25/03/2026 17:11

Marmite in beef gravy with sausage and mash, mmmmm
