Only bugs I eat are crustaceans like lobster tails without the big claws out front. By way of peace offering, I figure that both the Marmite and Vegemite arose out of considerable brewing industries.

Ha!

Nick, considering you drink your beer warm, I'd be considering your opinion on Vegemite with some reservations.

No, Marmite is nothing like the disgusting muck that is Vegemite - although not everyone loves it. In fact they advertise it by portraying people who hate it!

Is this like that great Australian practical joke known as Vegemite that they keep around and eat while strangers come to visit, never once grimmacing or wretching where one can see them but otherwise keep locked away on a top shelf somewhere? Darned Aussies 'll do anything for a laugh. If it IS like Vegemite then I understand why it would be great for dieters and soup: YOU WON'T WANT ANY.
