As I said... it's not much of a cheese.  :palm: But we DO have crackers down... "Full-sodium" RITZ and Keebler Townhouse beat your skeevy Captain's Wafers all hollow and inside-out. Even our Nabisco Saltines are better.  :o

mnem
And don't even get me started on what you wankers call biscuits...  ::)

     Us Australians have Ritz plus others from the US and the pommie ones (thin captains SUCK  :P ) but we tend to prefer the Arnotts Savoy, Jatz or the Salada (shame they are currently owned by you Yanks ;) )

These options would have potential for double sided production as they come with vero holes as standard. Conductivity of the Savoy due to salt may cause issues depending on the application.
Nabisco makes an "unsalted Saltine" for those who have to watch their sodium intake.  :o  This might actually be something useful to do with them, other than torment pigeons; they are NOT fit for human consumption.

Well, got my fix, along with some bottled Peppadew halves, which went down well with a Marmite topping.

also saw the Avocado oil in the Nathaniel collection, but did not buy any.

Sadly neither the Marmite or the Peppadew survived long, though the Lord of The Ring will be around for a few days, as condiment for scrambled egg.

As well, just a pic of a cat, he is available as well as quite adorable. Growing up well socialised, despite his mother being a feral cat who has sort of been adopted as a shop cay by Russell, now all he has to do is get her fixed, along with this guy.

Vegemite, being diluted and sweetened, can be a little thicker.

Um. Perhaps it's different in the UK, but at least in Australia this is a straight-up lie.

Vegemite ingredients: Yeast Extract, Salt, Mineral Salt (508), Malt Extract (From Barley), Natural Colour (150d)(Contains Preservative 220), Vegetable Extract, Niacin, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Folate.
Marmite ingredients: Yeast, sugar, salt, mineral salt (potassium chloride), colour (caramel III), corn maltodextrin, mineral (iron), vitamins (niacin, thiamin, riboflavin, folate, B12), herbs, spices.

Vegemite: 2.4% sugars
Marmite: 11.2% sugars

Interesting. The sheet I pulled to compare the two came from Wikipedia (which of course is always correct  :-DD ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmite showed 0.6g of sugars in the Carbs, maybe they are hiding the Sugars under the Energy which is a chunk up on Vegemite/100g.

Truth in Labeling of food products not being truthful impossible surely  :palm:

The first thing you should know about using Vegemite - especially for newcomers:

Thoroughly mix marmite with some butter and then spread that. Much easier to evenly spread it this way.

Marmite: 11.2% sugars

Sorry, that's wrong.

From https://www.marmite.co.uk/nutrition-information 100g of marmite contains
Carbohydrate 30g
of which sugars 1.2g

Your reference appears to be from some form of "health food" company.  Did they simply insert an extra "1", i.e. 1.2% vs 11.2% in the marmite figure?

In addition, marmite contains three times more salt, so you will spread much less of it on the bread/toast.

So yes, vegemite is "twice as" sweet as marmite - and if you take the amount used into consideration, could be 6 "times as" sweet.

QED, I believe :)

It's a UK vs Australia thing then. If you go to an Australian supermarket and get "Marmite" off the shelf, it's Sanitarium-branded Marmite with 11.2% sugar (backed up by the supermarket too).

That link also has "Our Mate", which has packaging similar to marmite here.

Our Mate is 0.5% sugar, and ~11% salt - just like marmite here.

At a guess I would think the "marmite" name was inadequately protected, allowing another company to purlion it.

Nah. Sanitarium bought the rights for the Marmite name in Australia + New Zealand from the original Marmite company decades ago. When the UK company wanted to sell the UK recipe there, they had to rename it to Our Mate hence the same percentages.

Sanitarium sounds like a really sick name for food brand. Do they offer a lot of nuts?

"The Sanitarium Health and Wellbeing Company is the trading name of two sister food companies. Both are wholly owned by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Founded in Melbourne, Victoria, in 1898, Sanitarium has factories in Australia and New Zealand, producing a large range of breakfast cereals and vegetarian products."
                                                                                           ... Wiki

They also run a well renowned (and not small) private hospital in Sydney's northern suburbs - commonly known as "The San".
