Advantages: Tastes so good

Disadvantages: probably VERY high salt content

Marmite is a thick savoury, salty spread that contains yeast. It is meant to be quite good for you because of the yeast, but probably VERY bad for you because of the salt content!

You've all seen the adverts - you either love it or you hate it! I love it. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! It is great on toast. put a small amount of butter on warm toast so that it completely melts and then add a tiny scraping of marmite. If you put too much on it ruins it. You just need a hint of it for flavour. My husband detests the stuff so when he makes me marmite on toast (I know! What a gentleman!) he always puts on too much because he thinks of it as any other spread. But it isn't any other spread! It's marmite and deserves respect for goodness sake!

Also really good on crumpets - you can afford to be a little more generous with the serving but not too much - think of it as a seasoning!!

they've started doing limited edition versions and my romantic man bought me champagne marmite for valentine's day. It's quite nice but you can't beat good old original marmite. they should never mess with the recipe.

Even Paddington Bear has it in his sandwiches!

Summary: Delicious - if you like it! Minging if you don't!
