This is one of our “French toast” recipes, using sliced bread from a packet, simply fried bread in batter, topped with all sorts of sweet ingredients. I don’t make them, I’m not one to eat fried food first thing in the morning.

I’ve never tasted Marmite, I was always a bit skeptical, what’s in it? What does it taste of?
Marmite is delicious with a flavour impossible to describe … other than salty.
It’s basically a by product from beer-brewing.

Thanks for the info, sounds intriguing, probably a cousin of the American Vegemite.
I’ve read that you “love it or hate it”.

HaHa I must tell my Aussie friends
It’s now an official word for love/hate:
“it’s marmite” means, it’s not to everyone’s taste, it’s an acquired taste.

despite my comments above, I used to love it, but now I can’t eat it as it has barley I believe.
But Dood’s post is against the grain! You cannot spread marmite onto bread with no butter, the bread should be white and it has to be toasted, the butter should be melting under the marmite. Any other way to eat marmite is an abomination!

I’ve only tasted “Vegemite” once. It was in Rottenburg in Germany. There was 3 Americans 5 Brits and 5 Aussies and an Aussie let me try it. It was way to salty tasting for me. And a few hours later, around 2 or 3 in the morning, and all of us got escorted out of town by the Politzie.

Neither would I. 
Actually as Annie said it would be heart attack on a plate.
Bruce was right when he said that French toast originally had nothing to do with fried bread soaked in butter or sirop,but was a way to deal with stale bread.
The origin of French toast is what we call " pain perdu" in order to avoid wasting stale bread deemed too hard to eat, we soak it gently in a mix of milk and egg to soften it and grill it gently with a bit of butter ( no deep fry), then we may sprinkle it a bit on the top with iced sugar especially for kids as a special treat .

One day I decided to be brave and buy one to try so I did , I opened it and smelled it but this is as far as I went, I was not brave enough I guess.

I thought it looked like a snails jelly…
But the smell wasn’t my thing either but I envy people for which marmite/vegemite toast are comfort food as it is probably much healthier than a nutella toast.
