Marmite

[Carolia]

Our Whole Foods store has Marmite. It just looks kind of scary to me (not like frightening scary, just why would I eat that scary). Of course, that could be the jar. I haven't gotten any yet, but I just might someday.

I can see why it doesn't appeal to American's tastes. It's not bad. It's unique. It was also a little pricey for the little jar.
I did get bananas at the store this afternoon so I can have banana and marmite sammies for breakfast tomorrow. I think that's going to be interesting.
I noticed that the Giant doesn't carry Vegemite. I'll have to check my international store the next time I'm down that way.

Vegemite is definitely the way to go.

The thing with Vegemite though, is it is one of those foods you have to start eating at a young enough age to not know any better. I love it, but I don't think you could pay me to try it if it was only introduced to me as an adult.

I first tried it when I was 30. Sometimes you just get a craving that only Vegemite can satisfy.
