My parents used to buy it when we were kids. 
Sorry butterscotch. I know a lot of people who love it. It’s definitely healthy stuff if you can handle it

Is this an online store? I found this
It has crunchy peanut butter marmite, but the prices are in pounds. Does peanut butter go with marmite?
Does anything go with marmite?
….
Just teasing.

Step away from the peanut butter. Don’t mess with perfection and add marmite

I used to get given it on toast as a kid … awful stuff. It’s dead salty and that gooey it’s as tenacious as treacle.
It used to be nicer as a hot low calorie beefy drink.
I’ve never ever made gravy with it.
If memory serves me right … it was banned in Canada once, quite a few years back.

Awful, awful stuff! Smells yucky too.
But hey, if it floats your boat then go right ahead

Just had marmite with warmed up pitta bread.
Secret is to smother the pitta with the butter then spread the marmite on top.

Love it, love it, love it. Daughter loves it, even my dog used to love it too. 
Just a little story about Marmite…
When it was my daughter’s 18th I did a ‘whacky kids’ party for her and her mates. One of the game was Guess the Parcels.
Two parcels - One good. One bad.
Anyway if you were unlucky to get the bad one, one of the ‘prizes’ was to eat a teaspoon of Marmite.
One of her mates hated Marmite. Even the smell used to make her feel queasy.
As you might guess, she got a ‘bad parcel’ and it was the Marmite one. 
To give her her due, she put it straight in her mouth. She wasn’t sick but… boy did she keep wretching.
She still remembers that and she’s 32 now

It’s extremely ‘processed’ and the amount of salt and additives… no thank you. That’s cancer on a plate

I wish I could eat marmite. Used to love it on a piece of toast smothered with butter and then spread with a thin coating of marmite. Thanks to this thread I have found out that tesco have a gluten free yeast extract. Marmite was famously a by product of beer making. Has lots of B vitamins and there is a reduced salt version. To me it was comfort food. Sort of thing you eat as a child or as a uni student. Probably helps the brain work better.
