I have to give a shoutout to New Zealand Marmite which is totally different to British Marmite (I think that NZ marmite has some sweetness as well).
Somehow i grew up in a mixed household that had both because my mum preferred Vegemite and I prefer Marmite.
In NYC it’s fairly easy to get Australian Vegemite but sadly impossible to find NZ Marmite, instead I do a bulk order every couple of years so that I have a stockpile :)
- julianz 2y agoNZ Marmite includes sugar, which I find horrible, but my family likes it so we have both in the house. I am Vegemite for life.

- RowanH 2y agoThis. Imagine my suprise growing up on NZ Marmite, to open a jar of British Marmite and go 'wtf is that slightly gooey stuff'. There's 3 very distinct camps in NZ. Love Marmite - what's wrong with you Vegemite people Love Vegemite - what's wrong with you Marmite people None of the above - what's wrong with the lot of you :)
- veb 2y agoNZ Marmite ftw! I had to tell my mum off for having Vegemite in her pantry the other day, but she had a decent enough excuse that made me giggle. "I buy vegemite because it comes in glass jars and I can reuse them!" oh... I guess that's... practical, Mum!
- caf 2y agoIn the 80s Vegemite used to come in small glass jars with a press-on lid that were designed to be reused as drinking tumblers. It was common to see kitchen cupboards full of those tumblers.
