NO, IT’S NOT THE SAME AS VEGEMITE.
Marmite. Salty manna from Heaven. And so, so easy to get wrong.
When people spread it an inch thick on toast, and your throat gets all clagged up with yeasty treacle.
If you're unfamiliar with the rites of Marmite, halve the amount on your knife. Then halve it again. Then spread it (on top of plenty of butter). There you go. Perfect.

When people spread it too thinly.
Marmite is a tricky beast to get right, and if someone's Marmiteing for you it's hard to nitpick without seeming, well, nitpicky. On the other hand - I don't mean to cast aspersions here - but it it seems to be a rule of thumb that those who spread Marmite too thinly are inevitably also purveyors of cold toast.
