    They taste very different. Imagine like they’re both jams/jellies or something of the same family of spreads, but one is apricot and the other strawberry.

    Make sure you only use a bit! Both have powerful flavour—like a ramen broth. Also use proper bread for Vegemite, not a sugar bread. The strong saltiness with sugar bread clashes terribly which, combine with putting way too much on, seems to be the two main reasons why Americans regret trying it—just doing it all wrong.

      I’ll have to give marmite a go once more. If you don’t have them side by side they mostly taste like a yeasty salt lick (In a good way).

        For some reason, Marmite tastes “sweeter” to me with an aftertaste that lingers for ages. It’s hard to explain. I’ve spent a lot of years in Australia, though, so I’m probably just victim to the Vegemite cult. Hell, I probably don’t even like it but wouldn’t know anymore.

      As an American is there a way to get not sugar bread without having to bake it myself? No seriously someone please just sell cheap bread without sweetening it here
