Marmite?

I saw a show (more of a documentary) where they showed problems encountered by the British. They mentioned Marmite. They said it is something people of Britain enjoyed that is not normally found elsewhere. It seemed very interesting.

I found a jar of it at a shop in Newburyport MA. They seem to have two sizes. I bought the smaller one. The smaller one cost $7.95.

The shop is called The Best of British. It is  small store with some really nice items relating to England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.  The people there are friendly. The shop is located in the historic town of Newburyport MA. The shop not only has food but also clothing and collectibles and books and other items related to the British isles.

I opened it. It smelled nice and unique. I tried some on plain toast and on toast with butter. It tasted nice either way. 

There seems to be a Facebook page on Marmite. One site indicated one could find recipes for it.

Here is a site on Marmite. It is an UK site. It seems to have some interesting information on it.
