        I've had Marmite which I believe is similar, and it's salty salty salty :^D

        It's good in small doses, and I sometimes get in the mood for it. Here's some Marmite commercials for your viewing pleasure :^D

              This reminds me of when Coke came out with NewCoke.

                    It reminded me of the new coke too.

                    this I think is different. it sounds to me like the new product was in addition to the old product and people objected to the stupid name they went with initially.

                    I've never tried vegemite, but I do like marmite and will have to try it with cream cheese now.

                    Awesome videos lx. Thanks for bringing back traumatic memories for me of the paddington bear. :shock:

                    Him and the velveteen rabbit always freaked me out as a child.
