WHAT? You can't be SERIOUS! vegemite is CRAP, and you're CRAP for liking it! God, it's just so contrived and boring - it tastes just like any other imported yeast extract! You should be supporting ORIGINAL KIWI spreads!
As for the "why" I think everyone only likes what they've been brought up with. While I was in London there were ads that played on the whole 'you either love it or you hate it' angle - for example, a guy brings a girl home and before they get comfy he nips into the kitchen. He comes back out, sits down with her and they kiss - then she pushes him away in disgust and leaves; camera pans over to kitchen where there's a half-eaten piece of toast with marmite.
Yeah, I think there were a couple of other ads like that and all. Of course, genuine british marmite tastes more like tar than the stuff we're used to.
i'm a marmite girl. have eaten some portion of marmite almost every day for my entire life. but then and again i want to slum it and take up with that vegemite hussy. love it at first, but come running back home to marmite.
I eat marmite daily, but will eat vegemite if there is not marmite around (just doesn't have the same kick). Apparently, I also eat an enormous amount of marmite on my toast. Other people balk when they see me smearing it on.
Also, as an amusing digression, when I was flatting with random Americans, it was always amusing when they mistook marmite for some nutella-type spread.
They're coming to take you away, HA HA
They're coming to take you away, HO HO HEE HEE HA HA

its a scientific fact that people who like vegemite over marmite are 24% less sexy, 50% less intelligent and have 821% more chance of being hospitalized for attempting to swallow a pool ball...
Now your in big trouble acting controlling and dominating is not going to help the situation I am not impressed at all I might even throw my toys over that one, and here I was thinking you were a nice boy once again tricked by a boy damn scorpio walls need to go back up
The walls are beginning to build back up Sam sorry buddy, even this buttercup sweet talk won't work on me, if you read towards the start of this topic you will see Aka has taste and therefore is a vegemite girl
//I am very stubborn Heather might need a bit more greasing on his behalf
Fair dos.
//but doesn't marmite contain animal products?
Not the Sanitarium stuff - they were started up by the Seventh Day Adventists. All sanitarium products are vegan.
You don’t need a best man if you don’t have a wedding coz you make stupid dominating comments and your fiancé overreacts in a mega huge way to the situation?? Grease away and use something better this time generally the best way to grease is to play on something the girl likes just a tip
er, thanks, so this is life eh - talking about marmite on the internet. Lovin' it.
My tub of nz marmit in the fridge at home says "may contain animal products.." or something like that.
Vegemite tastes saltier and not so heavy going.

I really like Bovril, pity it's ~$20 a jar
at the same time I wouldn't eat marmite/vegemite by itself, only if it was with cheese on toast
maybe someone should start up a smooth peanut butter vs crunchy thread, better yet blue milk vs green milk, the important issues
