Colorado based lover of marmite here. Vegemite is off, maybe tangy enough. Anyhow, I was looking in to this a while back and there are many competitors and some people lump “beef spreads” in with them. Bovrite is one, Bovril is another that is illegal in the US (not sure if it’s illegal dangerous or illegal like fireworks) Promite, MightyMite, AussieMite, OzMite are some of the popular ones and there seem to be “organic” kind of more artisanal *mites in parts of the world.
The illegality of Bovril spooked me some and so I haven’t forked out the cash to do the grand taste test challenge as I am happy with marmite and actually able to procure it; it’d be terrible to find a better one that is unobtainable. Hearing about these others makes me think I should do it though.
