How's your Mandarin, Kyle? ;-)
I have two kids learning it at school and I can't read a single character.
True believers down-under eat Vegemite, not Marmite. It's all axle grease to

p.s. i've heard that some of those nutty brits will just mix marmite and 
water. and drink it. or put it on ice cream. the coalition
