Kraft Vegemite (220g)

Nice specialty product for an OK price in India.

I tried it for the first time...it was a totally new experience and I would buy it again...it was value for money...has a strong smell....it's original product and quality is good...

I like the taste and spreadeblity of Vegimite.

Excellent product (if that's what you are looking for). Very similar to marmite.

The expiration date is a few weeks away from the date it has been delivered. Shelf life of product is an important factor for the price we pay . Please look into this.

Good stuff but 4 months to expiry date

Good value.

What I expected

A simply delicious product! Especially if you’re a Aussie!!!

I impulse-purchased a jar of Marmite at World Market some time back and I loved it, but it's been gone for a while. After hearing Men at Work singing about a vegemite sandwich in "Land Down Under" the other day, I decided I should order some Vegemite to compare the two. My jar arrived in perfect condition, with seven months to go on the best-by date. This stuff is one of those things that's fine in the cupboard for a long time after that date, no refrigeration needed (but I suppose it can't hurt). It's genuine made-in-Australia Vegemite. imported and distributed by an Irish company, and made by a company with the address of "1 Vegemite Way" in Melbourne, Australia. I'm going to have to also order a new jar of Marmite, because it's been long enough since I've had it that I can't make a final decision on the age-old question of which is the better, Marmite or Vegemite. I think they're so close that it really doesn't matter. No offense to my British or Aussie friends who have stronger opinions in this subject. Vegemite is darker in color (very dark brown) and has a texture like super creamy peanut butter, where Marmite is more gooey (imagine the thickest honey ever) and a slight bit lighter in color (very dark amber). The flavor of Vegemite holds it own easily compared to my experience with Marmite. It hits like a ton of bricks, just like Marmite did. The aftertaste is epic and mellows on the palate over time, making you want another taste. It's so good, and it just feels, tastes, and seems pure and good for you, which it is in moderation, due to sodium content. The best way I can describe the flavor to someone who's never had either one is rich, savory, salty, and meaty, like the best beef bouillon ever, even though both products are fully vegan as far as I know. For now I'm just going to say that Vegemite and Marmite are very close to each other in flavor and overall experience. If you like either one, you'll like both. Either one will be great on toast, bread, crackers, sandwiches, just a tiny dab (don't dip) on fresh veggies, or by adding a slight (!) spoonful to soups, stews, gravy, pasta sauces, during the pasta boil, stroganoff, alfredo sauce, sparingly in salads (mix it with the dressing), or pretty much any other savory or umami dish. No matter how you enjoy it, a little goes a long way. Always remember that. This stuff is pure flavor. It's good straight out of the jar too. Just a pea-sized amount (no more than that because it's powerful) on the tip of a spoon and you're in Flavor Town, baby. (Copyright Guy Fieri) Vegemite, Marmite, or preferably both, are something everyone should try, and should always have in the cupboard for cooking and general use. Try it, you'll like it. Most people seem to. It's the flavor. UPDATE/EDIT: So I got a new jar of Marmite so I could compare. The Vegemite wins the overall competition, and that surprises me. Flavor, texture, smell, all go to Veg over Marm. Marmite has a tanginess that Vegemite doesn't, and I like the flavor of Vegemite better. It's deeper and more intense. As far as texture, the peanut butter texture of Vegemite is easier and less messy to handle than the gooey, honey-like texture of Marmite. The Vegemite also feels better on the tongue when tasted off a spoon. Smell: Vegemite has a deeper, "meatier" aroma than Marmite. Marmite carries the tanginess of its flavor over into the aroma, and its aroma is not as prominent as Vegemite's. Overall, Marmite is good but Vegemite is better, in my opinion. Your mileage may vary. I won't turn down either one, but if you have both, I'll have the Vegemite.

I am so happy, I thought I'd wait for a month. It took literally 4 days to be delivered. Thank you Amazon.

It's yeast extract, that's for sure. It is distinctly different than Marmite, flavor, texture, and consistency. They are similar product but Vegemite tastes like a beer brewing byproduct in a good way. I completely understand why some people hate the stuff, it's salty, a bit metallic but it's also malty and there is a green bitter resinous quality, I assume is a hop of some sort. It reminds be of what might happen if you reduced a pale ale and seasoned it with salt. The texture, I assume comes from fewer reductions, it has body to it and is easily spreadable like Peanut Butter, not that you would want to use that much but you get the point. It's like they literally scooped the bottom of the fermenter and blended it. Makes complete sense to me, that's where all the excess flavor is. What are we supposed to do with it? Just throw it away? Pour it down the drain? Vegemite said "No!" we cook it down further and I assume some sort of secondary anaerobic salt fermentation like with miso and soy sauce. Size is good - 220g I probably used a teaspoon on a 10 inch tortilla. This will probably last me well over a month even if I ate it everyday. Price is solid, name another product you can eat everyday for a month at this cost with a nutritional table like this. It could not be easier to use, plastic knife on a tortilla you want to see the tortilla through the grooves basically the bare minimum coverage. Versatility is a tough one, this seems like more of a spread then anything else, you may be able to add it to a stew for umami, it could work in the place of beer with added water.

食べたくて食べたくて仕方なかったベジマイト。 割高ですが、賞味期限もしっかりあるし、買ってよかったです。
