You should try the other flavour of Vegemite it's called cheesymite which is Vegemite and cream cheese mixed together. It's divine and hello from Australia
OMG! That sounds fantastic. Sounds like something that should be a national food of Switzerland. Now I just need to get one of my Aussie friends to bring me one of those. Fortunately, some go back to Aus for Christmas. Thanks for the heads up.
I recently tried them both for the first time -- both on buttered toast. I thought the flavor of Marmite was slightly more to my liking, and I didn't particularly like the smell of either one, but I liked them both enough on toast with butter to have either one again sometime.
Great. My first intro to Marmite was when I went to South Africa. The smell is different (nice way of saying weird) but I ended up having it on toast most mornings.
You have me hooked. I tried Marmite many years ago when I did a semester in Scotland, and did not like it, but will now look for both Marmite and Vegemite to give them another chance.
Great. Do try the Vegemite. You may find it more to your taste because it's creamier.
Marmite is delish when spread thinly on buttered toast then cut into fingers and dipped in runny boiled eggs. Kiddy food I know but damned delicious :)
I so agree. Tasty. Not just for kids.
Marmite in Gravy or soups gives them a nice bite!
Oh, yes! Great idea.
Marmite+butter in toast bread and coffee= good morning 😁😋
Must agree. Esp. the coffee. Maybe a few coffees, then the toast with butter and marmite.
Nice video! I'm a big fan of Marmite. I don't like the bitter aftertaste of Vegemite.
Thank you. I'm one of those weird in-betweeners who likes both.
Even having lived most of my life in Australia I've always found the saltiness of Vegemite a little too overpowering. I actually prefer Promite which is similar, but not as intensely salty.
In any case all of these go pretty well with butter on toast, but even better when you have melted cheese on that toast.😁
Nothing beats melted cheese.
1ChilledDude Think I might just have to give Promite a go, that is if I can get hold of some in Canada. Cheers!
Always liked them both, but the new Vegemite had a recent recipe change and it tastes so much nicer than Marmite. It's fabulous now.
Ohh. I've not had the new Vegemite.
Vegemite is better in my opinion, it has a better texture and flavour
I'm still divided. I like both.
Interesting, I know vegemite made its way to Canada, not sure about marmite though.
If I find the other one my method is to make a sandwich with them both, yeah I’m pretty crazy when comes to food, lol.
I really want to try these.
🤜🏻🤛🏻
I don't remember if I ever had Marmite in Canada. I first had it on a visit to South Africa in 1979. Ended up eating it on toast every morning.
I tried marmite for the first time today. I'm Canadian so ordered from Amazon. It's really good! Can't eat it straight out the jar but in my sandwich it was heavenly..also the B vitamins it has is a big plus
I love Marmite. So I got excited when i saw vegemite in the supermarket. I thought: 'yes, I get to try the Aussie one - I bet it's as good but different." ... I hated it. Tried it few times in different ways to give it a chance and just couldn't acquire a taste for it. Yet I eat Marmite almost daily. You're lucky you like both.
I first had marmite in my twenties and vegemite in my 40s, but I like both.
I spread peanut butter and Marmite on rice cakes...it's really good! I still haven't tried Vegemite, but I plan to buy some.
Hmm? I can see where p'nut butter and marmite could complement each other.
Awesome Review! Thank you greatly!
Which one do you like?
I don't know! Thats how I found your great video! Im from California but I have been living in Japan for about 18 years. Over the years, I've had many friends and students share Vegemite with me but I have never had the opportunity to try some Marmite! I really like Vegemite as a flavor enhancer for many dishes but got a little curious about marmite, a flavor I have yet to try! Thank you for the great video!
@@hiroyopoetker Yeah, Vegemite is often available in import stores, but I don't see Marmite as much.
Too much Marmite - less is more
This is true.
Vegemite costs far less than marmite. All else being equal, that’s my deciding factor.
This I did not know.
Ohayo Kevin!!! Yum! I used to love sprinkling brewers yeast all over my popcorn. I’m thinking that I would like Vegemite. I’m going to order some on Amazon and try it out with my family. Thank you for educating us on the origin of marmite and vegemite.
Sounds like it would be great. I recommend softening up the vegemite first. Then adding it while popcorn is very hot and mixing well. It takes a bit to melt the vegemite. Another option might be to melt the vegemite with some butter in a small sauce pan - I bet that'd be tasty.
Kuma's Kitchen....I like your way of thinking!! 😋
LOL. My way of thinking is: When in doubt, add more butter or cheese.
Kuma's Kitchen.....Right On Brother!!
I always wanted to try it but never got a chance.
If you ever get to Santa Barbara, there's a little motel just back from the beach, called Inn at East Beach. The owner puts out both Marmite and Vegemite for breakfast.
They sell both on Amazon now too.
Marmite - Never heard!!! I have to google it. I think I should test both because I have never had Marmite nor Vegemite...
Yeah, never heard of either when living in die Schweitz.
@@KumasKitchen Marmite should be good against mosquitos (found on wikipedia).....
I'm sure if you smeared Marmite all over yourself, mosquitos would stay away.
I’ve never tried either. Have you ever tried Poi? It’s like the vegimite of Hawaii. Very bitter paste like consistency.
I've never had Poi. Actually, never heard of it.
Poi is is light purple gloopy like food. Hawaiians eat it alone, or in smoothies, on bread, etc. It’s made from taro root that is pounded with a stone and mortar until it turns into a paste like texture. Served at traditional luaus. Usually won’t find it in touristy areas because the tourists won’t eat it and just throw it away. Tastes amazing freshly pounded. 🙌🏽
If I ever get over to Hawaii again, I shall definitely try some.
This morning I put some Vegemite on my Cream of Wheat breakfast. It was good!
Ohh, adventurous. I like it!
@@KumasKitchen Haha.
I'll reserve judgement until your next video to be sure you're still alive and kicking. ;=)
Hahahahaha :')
LOL. Hasn't killed me yet. Er, wait, arghhhhhhhhhhhhh
Branston Pickle for cheese.
Oh, yes! Definitely. OMG, not had that for a very long time.
so vegemite has a different texture, but does it taste any different than marmite? I've tried marmite and I want to try vegemite but I don't want to spend the money to order it on amazon if it's not going to taste any different than marmite.
It's a little different. Australians and British will say it's very different, but I find I like them both.
I'm an American who never tried either until I was an adult. I LOVE vegemite, but I only tolerate marmite. I still buy marmite sometimes because I can get it at the local grocery store, and I've gotten to like the taste better over time, but absolutely cannot wait to order some more vegemite. It's at least worth ordering once!
i like them both as well, i tried Marmite first and now Vegemite. i think the latter has a pretty notable "mushroomy" taste and reminds me more of vegetable broth. it's been a while since i had Marmite but i think it was more "roasty" and reminded me more of soy sauce. i could probably give a better comparison if i tried them side by side. i'm also curious about salt-reduced Marmite, which may make the other flavors stand out more.
if you're gonna try it first make sure you use it sparingly, just browning the surface of the bread. the big wallops that Kuma had on his seem pretty unusual. also if you use less it lasts longer. ;)
In Singapore, I used marmite on plain white porridge 😅
Great idea. I'm going to try that. I love salty/savoury on my porridge.
Great video!
Thank you, Alpha.
Marmite cheese toasties 😋
Delicious.
Oh yeah baby 👍
Both are good but Vegemite has a bit more punch to it
mwl079 yes but I prefer marmite
Agreed. I also like both.
I have both in my cupboard and I definitely favor the Marmite which has a more concentrated savory flavor and more of a Guinness beer flavor. I like to have it on a buttered Ryvita cracker with sharp cheddar cheese on it. But it is a must on buttered toast served with eggs, cheese and baked beans. I often crave it this way.
I sometimes spread just on a thick slice of cheddar.
I use Vegemite with peanut butter. .... Australian.
Wow! Never tried that. Now I'm intrigued. Gonna try.
I never had one :(
See if you can find a small jar in an import store. Or, get a friend to bring you one (that's how I got mine).
vegemite my preference...
Thank you for your vote.
I’ve never tried both but by judging the name I would prefer vegemite
LOL. The first one does sound much like an animal we have in Switzerland.
In the absence of either the other will do.
I agree.
Vastly prefer Marmite. Can’t stand Vegemite for some reason.
Many of my friends have a strong stance for one of them. Myself, I like both.
bc ur weak
Give me more vegemyte
Very good. I've got a large jar of it for next time you visit Osaka.
don t tell me you are Swiss and didn't even mention our own version which is Cenovis. I am truly disappointed. Cenovis is so tasty. Eating some right now with bread and butter. You don't have French, German or Italien accent neither so I suspect you are a spy lol
LOL. I spent much of my life in Canada and Japan, so my Swiss accent is gone, even my Canadian accent has faded. My Swiss accent used to come back whenever we visited my hometown, and when I returned to Canada my friends would say "You're talking funny." Now, it only comes back when I'm speaking German in my hometown.
I've never heard of Cenovis. Is it from French side? When I was a child living in Switzerland, I never heard much about Swiss-French products. Wasn't until decades later that I even heard of Raclette.
@@KumasKitchen I was teasing you lol but yeah I couldn't discern any accent so you must have been gone for a while. I am from Lausanne and everyone knows Cenovis so I was surprised you never heard of it. It might be a French part of Switzerland thing. Anyway, give it a try when you come back and do a new comparison if you could. it would be interesting. Happy new year and greetings from Vietnam!
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cenovis
@@Swiss-Yoghurt Thanks for the info. I've never seen Cenovis, but maybe I'll find it in the Konsum on my next visit home.
@@KumasKitchen I immediately thought "this guy sounds Canadian, but something's a bit off". Guess I have my answer now lol.
Marmite is the best, no contest vegemite is gross!
I'm going to guess you're from the UK.
now try Promite.
Tell me more. I've never heard of it.
@@KumasKitchen invented by an Australian company in the 1950's, Promite is another yeast extract with a sweeter flavor then Marmite and Vegemite.
Hey dude your using way to much Vegemite just smear it over do not use it like peanut butter.
Ooops. My non-Australianism is showing?
Too much Marmite too. But if he likes it then he just has a super salty palette.
Marmite and bacon sandwich
You had me at bacon.
I'd kill for Marmite. So good!!
My friend brought me a jar of the Marmite Extra. Yum!
Marmite is the winner for sure!
Are you British?
Kuma's Kitchen aha British & proud marmite fan 👍
Mmm. Marmite. My lucky taste buds.
😁
Smile.
Avocado on Vegemite toast!
That sounds tasty.
You added too much, its supposed to be a tiny amount.
I'm not that subtle. I like a lot on my toast.
Marmite all the way! Vegemite is just a poor third cousin twice removed in comparison!
LOL. I'm guessing you're from the British Isles?
@willienelsongonzalez4609: You obviously have not tried the new Vegemite. I have always liked them both, but the new Vegemite is now my favourite.
#TeamMarmite
LOL. The Marmiters are happy to get your vote.
That makes too of us! #TeamMarmite
Vegemite Rulessssssssssssssssss 😀😀😀😀
LOL. The Aussies weighing in.
Vegemite is better.
Duck! The British are coming to fight back.
No I’m from Britain lmao
Sorry but Vegemite is nasty it has a strange bitter taste
Yes, Vegemite has a bitter aftertaste. Marmite is better.
Great! Now you've angered the Aussies.
Kuma's Kitchen lol!
