Vegemite is stunning. Pure, concentrated unami.
Marmite seems to have something sweet mixed in as well - a disgusting combination.

Depends on what you were brought up on.
In the UK It was Marmite from birth, so that's what we are used to, even though it is still an acquired taste.
Over here it is Vegemite for the same reasons.
If I have one slice of toast with Marmite on everyday then mosquitoes tend to avoid me, could be something to do with the yeast component build up.

Marmite is far superior to Vegemite but I will eat Vege if I can't get Marm.

Yes, partial to a bit of both, mainly Marmite on toast or a cheese and Marmite sandwich.
Similarly, I hate the taste of marmite but love the smell. Been 25 years since I tried Vegimite in Oz so it would be unfair to judge it.
I also hate the taste of gin but love the smell. As a barman I used to smell the empty gin bottles .... yes, yes, I know !

Why does Bovril keep getting mentioned ? Is it because they are sold in similar shaped jars ?
Totally different product to Marmite and Vegemite, might as well say you prefer chocolate.

This. Both utterly vile.
If I was Prime Minister I would pass a law banning their existence.

I thought it was only kids who didn't like Marmite as it's quite a strong taste. Just like most of them don't like really spicy food until they get older and develope a taste for it.
Yeah, I'm saying that if you don't like Marmite then you're like a small child with no appreciation of real food. You probably have your steak well done and demand ketchup with it. Like Donald Trump.
I bet Trump HATES Marmite. But he'd cope with Vegemite as it's a bit more child friendly, being the kiddy version of the proper product.....

Marmite is Satans spunk, vegemite is his muesli eating, sandal wearing, community service rather than eternal damnation nephew demons phlegm. (apologies if your eating while reading this)
