Marmite vs Vegemite ... what & # 039; Your choice?

British favorite, Marmite is a rich, dark brown yeast spread on hot toast, waffles and a hot drink or a snack. Marmite lovers will tell you that is good or not! The spread has a dense salty flavor and should be used sparingly. Marmite is made from yeast extract (a by-product of the brewing industry) and is a rich source of vitamin B complex statistics say that 25% of Britons take Marmite with them when they travel. Marmite also launched a new extension, Marmite XO, is an age difference of origin and according to some version of Marmite taste of childhood.

Vegemite is otherwise of Australia (but can be bought in the UK) and is also a yeast extract spread.

In view, therefore, are both yeast extracts that have the same taste should definitely, but apparently there is a clear difference in taste like Vegemite has added flavors, colors and more natural additives Marmite this is a hitter that other?

Marmite vs Vegemite, the taste test

A trip to Australia was my first encounter with Vegemite on their own ground, so I decided it was time to see if I tossed and the new XO into the mix to make the difference between Marmite and Vegemite not only, but.

I'm not sure that the "blind" tasting scientific review, only three pieces of toast hot with brown butter, each card with an equal amount of propagation. One bite of each and the differences are immediately obvious (to me).

• XO was easy to recognize because they closer not only a richer flavor, darker than I in the texture and thick and sticky.
• Original Marmite simply because it's a taste I'm used to. Salinity is offset by a slightly sweet flavor with a silky smooth texture.
• Vegemite, I am sorry to say that I did not like to try though. Found something, something unpleasant odor, but could not put my finger on why, and the flavor was weak and soft, with a bitter aftertaste, which I found uncomfortable.

My (Australia) friend, a lover of Marmite had the same reaction.

I was really surprised that the two products are completely different, and for me, "Mite is Marmite is good and I could care less if XO or traditional, I like both.

So I think that roles of discussion and an answer to Marmite is better than Vegemite remain unclear. It is simply a matter of personal taste, I think.

Have fun, and this book smorgasbord of Marmite Dictionary. All you on the famous Tar "in a pot." Great gift when you. A lover of Marmite in their community
