Here in Britain it is commonly believed that you can divide people into those who love Marmite and those that hate it (for those abroad, Marmite is a brand of yeast extract that you spread thinly on bread or toast, its a tiny bit like vegemite, but has a much more developed flavour).
For those that know the flavour, which one are you, and have you tried the new Guinness Marmite?
I love it!

I live with a displaced Australian. They stopped importing Vegemite here so he has had to switch to Marmite. I used to hate the stuff but it has grown on me and I use it in my gravies and stews it adds a homey flavour to the foods. We only get the Kraft kind though hopefully we will get a chance to try Guinness's, unless they start importing Vegemite again...

Its a limited edition one, so it was next to the normal yellow topped jars in the shops, but look for a white topped one. Quite a different flavour, but I don't know if I'll be able to get more when this jar runs out
