Hhmmm, I've always told myself I hate Marmite, but havnt tried it in god knows how long, 25-20 years I guess.
I love savoury foods, olives, pickles, strong cheese etc, so based on this thread I guess I should give it another chance.
What would be the "optimum" tasting experiance?
Toasted white soft bread with lots of butter and a little marmite?

Marmite purchased (no point wasting ££ on a full tub if I don't like it!)
Pitta bread toasted, buttered and marmited, note the control
So then it was taste time, and I've got to be honest, at first I was like
However, I tried it a few more times, and after a few bites, you know what happened?
I still hate marmite!

It looks to me as if you spread it too thick — you only need the thinest of smears. More than that & it can be overpowering, unless you're a true addict ...................

sidekickdmr - it looks as though you made the same rookie mistake I did when I tried it a while ago, far too much Marmite for an introduction, it's potent stuff to us newcomers, you only need enough to cover the tip of a knife and then you spread this out really thin. Then as you get braver you can increase the amount, I doubt I'll ever get to the levels you have there though, that's pretty hardcore to me.
