Am just wondering how many people love or hate the taste of marmite.
I have always loved it but was unable to eat it for many years as it triggered off my migraines...lately though I have been eating it with no problems.
My kids were brought up eating marmite but as adults they can't stand it.
So......do you love it or hate it?

Nooooo....never did like bovril.
But saying that isn't bovril now made from yeast extract too and not beef like it used to be?

I love it and it is one of the first things that I ask for if anyone I know is going over to the UK.
As a child my Mum used to make me marmite "soldiers" ....ooo happy memories.
My OH's nephew spent one term in a University in Scotland and he fell in love with it as well,and now eats it on toast with a fried egg on top.

I love marmite on toast, used as stock in soup too. But the best is putting marmite on mashed potato. yummy
