withnail Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Marmite is far superior although in most aussies defence the 'marmite' that you get in Australia is not the genuine article and is indeed even worse than the vegemite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter991 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 My personal preference is Promite as it's not as salty as either Vegemite or Marmite. I found that you can get Vegemite and Promite at Friendship Supermarket if you are in Pattaya. I have breakfast at Monty's Cafe and Pool Bar and I can always get Vegemite on toast there. For some reason, Thais don't seem to like the saltiness of Vegemite / Marmite / Promite. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I have never tried these products. How do they taste? Are you spreading them on sandwiches or what? Sorry for my ignorance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter991 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 George: You have led a sheltered life Vegemite, Marmite and Promite are 'yeast extracts,' rich in vitamin B and niacin, riboflavin and other things that are good for you. A rich, dark (almost black) spread, which is slightly salty to taste and great on buttered toast. I remember the actor who played Quincey, MD being introduced to Vegemite when he was in Australia ... he admitted he hated it and promised to look for an antidote. Maybe you have too much of a sweet tooth ... Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever your preference, because of the high vitamin B content, they are all reputed to be very good at helpting getting over a hangover...

I quote health consultant Dr Martin Schweiger "Marmite gives off an odour through the skin that insects find off-putting but human beings cannot smell" Great for repelling mossies!! assume you eat it on toast rather than smearing it on the bod!!!

englishoak Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 First time I came to thailand I had some Marmite with me. Now there may be the occasional exeption but from my survey most Thai's hate it However if you can get a Thai to try some the face they pull is a picture The kids are the best as they will try anything BTW there is only one Marmite all the rest are bad copies ... same same but different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
