Do people actually eat yeast extract on a regular basis or is it just a meme food?

[Anonymous No.6495290]

Brits and Aussies love that stuff... Vegemite and Marmite. It's really disgusting IMHO.

[Anonymous No.6495306]

>>6495282
I'm pretty sure they drink it straight from the jar every day for breakfast.

[Anonymous No.6495334]

>>6495306
Believe me mate, it would be impossible to drink from the jar. The stuff has the viscosity of tar and it sticks to everything.
It is however fucking delicious.

[Anonymous No.6495396]

>>6495282
I always start and end the day with a spoon full of marmite.

[Anonymous No.6495434]

There's a trick to eating it. You make a sandwich with plenty of butter, add just a TINY BIT amount of it (something like the tip of your knife), and rub it into the butter. Then it gives the butter just the right amount of salt and bitterness that is not absolutely disgusting.

That's the gayest fucking thing I've ever read.

Spread generously on toast as it was intended to be eaten, or use it as a delicious meat glaze. Don't be a faggot and dilute it like some stupid faggot.

I eat it virtually every morning and have done for years. Sometimes on toast, sometimes on crumpets or muffins

I'm Canadian and I eat it frequently; I get little jars of the Kraft vegemite It's actually really good and it's just a meme that it's bad perpetuated by people who have never even tried it.

[Anonymous No.6496183]

I mix it with buttered noodles

[Anonymous No.6496197]

Damn I miss vegemite singles

[Anonymous No.6496231]

>>6495306
a bloke i used to work with always had a spoon of vegemite in hot water instead of a coffee

[Anonymous No.6496680]

>>6495282
Marmite is delicious, thinly spread on hot buttered toast. Never tried vegemite, because I'm bonglish.

[Anonymous No.6496983]

>>6495282
I did when I was a kid. But then I grew out of all spreads except peanut butter, and even that is the 100% peanuts peanut butter that would have made me gag when I was a kid.

I guess I also enjoy marmalade sometimes, come to think of it.

[Anonymous No.6496997]

Americans eat plenty of yeast extract without realizing it. Its in cheese crackers and other prepackaged goods that want a cheesy taste.

I used to work for a brewer that sold it by the tanker car to companies like frito-lay.

If you are too lazy to google it then I can't be bothered to explain it to you.

on phone and have gone thru monthly google rations already

[Anonymous No.6499228]

Marmite and butter sandwiches on brown bread, applied thick.

Tastes like heaven. Was brought up on it.

I can't stomach Vegemite though. It tasted more like chemicals. The 'kick' is there but no intense beefy aftertaste.

[Anonymous No.6499232]

>>6495282
Anything similar that is sold in US stores? I really want to try it.

[Anonymous No.6499235]

i used to eat it every day when i was a student. haven't since then.

it's still great, i just don't eat toast very much anymore.

what the fuck does 'meme food' even mean in this context. marmite is over a century old you shitter.

[Anonymous No.6499269]

>>6496231

>Spread generously

Utterly and without question always entirely wrong.

>or use it as a delicious meat glaze

Are you from the 80's and think microwaving chicken is a pretty neat idea or something?

[Anonymous No.6499286]

Just go beast mode.

You are now intensely craving a Marmite stuffed crust cheese pizza

I'm an American and I love that shit, Vegemite too. Spread like a 1/4 cm of it onto a cheeseburger and enter heaven.

Black guy based reminder that you're not supposed to eat spoonfuls of it

[Anonymous No.6499423]

>>6495282
You need to have cultured taste to appreciate the flavor. Go have some jam or some other sweet tasting crap.

[Anonymous No.6499434]

my country run out of marmite recently because of an earthquake, shit sucked

but it's back now, I literally eat it everyday on toast or I add it to hot water with a caffeine pill instead of coffee (regional thing)

[Anonymous No.6499462]

>>6495282
People who say they don't like it are doing it wrong.

[Anonymous No.6499480]

>>6499423
Yeah they should totally stop hating what you like. You sure showed them with your cultured maturity.

[Anonymous No.6499543]

boo fuckin' hoo

[Anonymous No.6499772]

>>6499279
I want it.

[Anonymous No.6499807]

>>6496183
that sounds like it would work well, i do the same with soy sauce and it's got the same sort of flavour kind of

[Anonymous No.6499932]

>>6495282
It's pretty good. It has a nice umami flavor to it.

[Anonymous No.6500054]

Vegemite a shit.
Marmite a best.

Try adding to stocks and sauces fora huge, instant umami kick

[Anonymous No.6500077]

>>6500054

from what i remember, vegemite in aus is pretty much the same as marmite in the uk, but marmite in aus is shitty.

[Anonymous No.6500087]

>>6495282
I put it in scrambled eggs.

[Anonymous No.6500091]

I can't believe Kraft tricked so many people into eating brewing waste.

[Anonymous No.6500122]

Why would people eat anything that Wasps make?

Also it's OK. I used to have Marmite sandwiches some days when I was at school ;-;
