The yeast extract. What is its texture, powder, granular?

Oh, it's like a thick, smooth paste.

I suppose it's like a rich beefy taste? It spreads like peanut butter so you have to use sparingly because its too strong a flavour. Most people either love or hate it. No inbetween.

Use it sparingly? Never, it's lashings of marmite or nothing at all!

Sparingly? What a strange concept.






Ah! So that's what it means. How boring. About to head into Wendy's for a major sized burger and chili.

Got it now! When I heard yeast extract, I thought powder for some reason.

Thanks, Guys for the explanation. I may have to go and look to see if our International Market has it or not!

Wow, when I posted the photo of the bottle of Marmite, I never expected to get this much mileage out of it! I may have to try some myself.

Now you should get hold of a jar easily enough, Sci.

BTW a mug of hot water mixed with a able spoonful of Marmite makes a great drink!

There is an alternative to Marmite; Bovril. I'm used to using Bovril as a base for gravy, but haven't tried it as a drink or a spread.

These images were thrown up when I Googled Bovril.

I've seen it at CostPlus and at least one of my neighborhood chain supermarkets, which has a small British foods section. I've never tried it, though, because it never sounded appealing.

Here's a larger display of Marmite.



for some strange reason, my store puts it in the baking section.

Yes, I've had hot bovril and hot marmite drink. Lovely beefy drink in winter evenings. I've used both in stews, curries, soups etc... Use it like a stock cube.
