Please help me test my marmite theory!

[CocSoc]

My theory is that liking the taste of marmite is a dominant trait.

I like marmite, my dh likes marmite… therefore our dc like marmite. Which is correct!

So… if neither parents like it, then their dc won’t like it.

But I also think that dc will like marmite if only one parent does. Because liking it is the dominant.

Please help me test my theory and tell me how it is in your family

(clause!!…. Just for fun, not to be taken too seriously. I won’t flounce if I’m wrong)

Absolutely love Marmite , have it on toast , on crispbreads , on cucumber ( try it ) and even a half teaspoon of it .
Dh hates it , both dc love it.

Oh and another thing
cats love marmite

Mine didn't , and as it's quite salty , surely it's not good for them ?

We all love marmite except Ds1 who can take it or leave it.
He doesn’t seek it out but will enjoy it if it’s offered to him.
I never thought this was possible.

My mum likes it, my dad doesn't, I hate it.
My DH loves it
Our DS age 16 hates it.

Definitely not true in our family

Thanks. I’ve added it to my shopping list 😊

I love it. DH hates it. One DC loves it, the other hates it.

Wonder if it is like the coriander genetic mutation, where some people think it tastes like soap?

Maybe it’s a marmite genetic mutation ;)

For what it’s worth both my kids and their dad love marmite.

And to throw in another curve ball, garlic makes me extremely thirsty. Not sure if it does that to my kids too. So an extremely unhelpful post! Hahah

I quite like coriander but sometimes it tastes like soap.

I love marmite. Their dad doesn’t & neither do the children. Disappointing 🤣

@Flintstonerubble , you can use it in recipes, or drink it (like you might Bovril).

I keep meaning to try Spaghetti With Marmite | Nigella's Recipes | Nigella Lawson .

I love it as does DS, DH thinks it’s ok and DD hates it.

This is the weirdest part of all.

You don't "tolerate " Marmite. It's the food of the gods or can get in the bin.

Oh, it appears DS2 belongs to the milkman then..

I cant stand marmite, DH would eat it if given, but would never choose it (he would eat anything you put in front of him, however horrific, as he's just too polite)
DS1 doesn't like it. DS2 adores it.

Everyone in my family mildly enjoys Marmite, without loving it or hating it. Probably some sort of genetic mutation, accidentally shared by both me and DH.

If my children have children they will be at risk of severe marmite-indifference, unless they take care to mate with a lover or a hater

I love it
DH doesn’t mind it
DS doesn’t mind it
DD hates it
