    Too much Marmite and no butter? No wonder he hated it. My first Marmite experience had the best conditions and I loved that stuff right from the beginning.

    I've been in the UK for 10 years now, and it was love at first taste with Marmite. Apparently, after reading the comments down below, I will love it even more, as it's supposed to taste better with butter, which is something I didn't know or was ever told, to be honest. I do put it in some sandwiches here and there, just a smidge, as it adds a peculiar flavor, a hint of goodness in there.
    I also just recently discovered the joys of Bovril. I like it hot and strong, with a pinch of salt. With the weather getting cold now, it's just the greatest thing ever, I'm in love with it. Thanks, Britain, jolly good show! I never tried Vegemite, but my brother lives in Australia, I'll ask him if he ever tried next time we talk. I also like Supermalt and Branston pickles, among many other good things I only tried here, and the ales are also just great, Old Speckled Hen is my favorite.

    Bovril doesn’t belong in that comparison because it’s first of all, a beef extract so the flavour comes from meat not yeast, and secondly, it’s a liquid stock for soups and stews so you’re meant to drink it hot in a mug. Vegemite and Marmite contain no meat or meat extracts.

    you should have had more butter on the toast to distribute it evenly . and used it more spareingly

    While having breakfast on vacation in South Africa, I spread Bovil on my bread. After I ate it, I thought that there was no way I could test anything worse than this in my life, so I took a new bread and tried the Hot English Mustard. That's when I made peace with Bovil.

    I've had all 3. Bovril is the superior toast spread and better than either Marmite or Vegemite. It's less salty, and has a better flavour/heat balance.

    Vegimite is absolutely better, but both are amazing options that I wish I learned about earlier as an American.

    Bread should be thickly buttered and just a thin layer of marmite should be added

    Love marmite on toast that’s soaked with butter and Bovril’s a perfect little warm me up with a pie at football. Less is more. Anybody who likes salty butter popcorn would love marmite on toast how we really eat it.
