*please distinguish between Marmite and Vegemite - in my experience
Antipodeans do not like Marmite (and of course conversely neither do we
like Vegemite)*

*Or is Shani the exception that tests the rule?*

Thanks Johnny, you are right. Marmite is hideous but Vegemite is delicious
when eaten on hot toast with lots of butter. They are both eaten here and I
think people's preferences depends on what they had as a child.

It's the curse of copy and paste! I'll eat some Marmite as a penance - no,
that wouldn't be a penance, so we'd better make it Vegemite.

Actually Shani,

/Marmite is hideous but Vegemite is delicious/ is sort of exactly the
reverse of what I said.

They are (or were) made from different things and taste very different
(I suspect that nowadays they are made from exactly the same ingredients
except for distorting the taste one way or another)
