Marmite.... just wondering....

[CupcakesHay]

Hi

This is all a long way off for me (22wks pg at mo!) but just pondering.... what age can you give children Marmite???

My DD just had some yesterday at 13 mo. Mixed with cream cheese on a cracker. Spat it out and pulled a face! I'm horrified - DH and I love the stuff.

i have mixed a tiny little dab of Vegemite into DD's pumpkin puree to liven the taste up a bit and she loves it. She is 22 weeks.

by dab i mean about a fingernails worth. Unfortunately the salt in it means it is not suitable for little ones in any great amount. We are Australian though so it is compulsory that she has some as soon as possible.

My son is age three and really likes it, he doesn't have it often at all, but sometimes he'll ask for it. I spread it on really really thinly.
