Is Marmite addictive?

[Domo Kun]

It's iconic, it's more British than roast beef, and you ALL know the slogan.

I eat Marmite on toast at least once every other day. However, I have to admit, I don't actually like the taste of it, in fact, the only reason I like eating it is because it makes me feel a small amount of elevation.

Is that being addicted?
Does anyone else get Marmite craveings?

Oh and on another note, is it healthy?

[mike-zim]

ADDICTIVE: no you are a freak
DO I GET CRAVINGS: no you are a freak
IS MARMITE HEALTHY: dont be a freak ofcourse its not.

glad i could help

[Letty]

if you eat enough, your skin produces its own kind of mosquito reppellent.

[Domo Kun]

I hate my life.

hmm, I think there is somethign addictive in marmite. it may be that there is something in it that you lack in your diet? hence the craving..

[Nintendork]

Marmite is extremely good for you, it contains Yeast extract.. which is an exceptionally good source of many vitaimins and minerals including B vitamins.. great for vegetarians as meat is often the only sufficient source of B vitamins in the diet.

I like it.. in moderation though, I don't eat it every day.. but I am a vegetarian so I just take multivitamins as a top up instead.

i thought marmite was made from beef or is that bovrill?

[Pestneb]

so craving it could be sign of vitamin deficiency

[AshMat]

Give me bovril over this strong shite any day.

[kyletherobot]

marmite is disgusing and so is bovril spread. bovril drink on the other hand is rather nice.

[Infinete]

i honestly dont know how people can eat the stuff, it makes me feel sick :(

Nope, yeast. Think it was the waste from the beer brewing process originally, but I could be wrong.

Bovril used to be made from cows but they changed to a 100% veggie recipe during that whole BSE thing.

If it was they should have left it there.

I'd go see a doctor if your shit looks anything like marmite.

'The Marmite connoisseur Lesley Dusart suggests that marmite can be used as part of a gravy and also suggests a recipe for the perfect marmite on toast:

Toasted bread
Lots of butter
Thin layer of marmite
(This can also be applied to cheese and marmite sandwiches) '

Marmite's my binge food. Along with peanut butter/philidephia on toast. I suppose that makes toast my binge food.

im vegetarian too. and nintendork's right. its a really good source of vitamins. maybe you're not getting enough B vitamins from dairy sources or something? if you're seriously worried, see a doctor or something.

[KKOB]

marmite is just vile-if you like it you have poor taste-literally lol

[Cubechris]

Marmite is awesome.
