Default My Mate Marmite

Marmite is a yeast extract...you either love it or loathe it (like cheesecake?). Years ago we had a trip around a brewery and there was a tanker waiting up outside a building. Turned out it was sucking up the excess yeast from the brewery vats and was then destined for the Marmite factory. I just wish it had some alcohol in it!

I looked at the back of a Vegimite bottle the other day to see which Kraft company owned up to making it...seems as though it is Australian-sourced and then imported. Does that make sense?
