How would you describe the taste of the marmite if you have to pick something to compare it with?

I’ve absolutely no reference to offer 🤷♂️ Vegemite 😂

I see.. Yah it's quite a particular taste. That's exactly why I was curious. 😁

Audrey if you’ve not tried it, get some! Even the advert says you either love or hate it.
Half a teaspoon in gravy or bolognese sauce is great seasoning 👍

Audrey I would compare it to a savoury dark chocolate. that same rich sting that dark chocolate has, but without the sweet after taste

I was gonna say savoury salt taste but simjim2 sounds better.😀

Salty, earthy a bit meaty. Delicious 😋

I've been tempted to try Marmite, but I'm not sure what I'd do with the rest of the jar if I can't stomach. I remember years ago smelling vegemite, but not being brave enough to try it. My taste horizons have expanded since then, though

vegemite is disgusting. marmite on toast is my comfort food

Jim you’re probably as close as you can get 👍 Stacey I’ve never actually tried Vegemite just heard it was supposed to be similar? Toasted ciabatta with marmite and grilled cheese is wonderful but I dare say not the healthiest option 🤷♂️

Writingwyo try it! It’s a 50/50 gamble, it’ll either be the best thing ever and be one of those must haves in the cupboard or the total opposite? £3 gamble is definitely worth it 👍👍👍

I'll see if I can find a small jar! It's not as common here in the States, and I live in a smaller market, so I'm not sure I'll actually find it where I live. There's always online. Plus, our Natural Grocers health food store is moving to a larger location, so I'm hoping that'll mean more selections. Maybe they'll have it. Thanks!

Damn simjim! That's quite of a comparison! Thanks.
Yeah I think it's like coriander, they say that one is actually written in your genetics whether you're gonna love it or hate it.
I hate it. 🙈🙈
