Not quite.

Vegemite is made from vegetables, while Marmite is made from yeast (a fungus). Perhaps "Fungamite" would more appropriate? 

Err.. Terry, I think you're not quite right there. I have some Aussie friends that kept on about Vegemite being the best thing on Earth. As I had no idea what it was back then, I consulted wiki. It said that vegemite was a yeast extract, from  leftover yeast after beer brewing. If I am to believe wiki, and I usually do, marmite and vegemite would be quite similar, albeit that Marmite has a far more intense flavour, so wiki says.

I cannot say anything about taste, as I haven't come across any Aussie cats yet...

Ah, OK. It was just that one Australian member quoted me the ingredients and they were different. No yeast at all.

And you have to remember that Wiki at one time carried a story about my death from alcoholic poisoning in a Tibetan Monastery. 

[Mad_Fred]

Haha... well if it was on wiki, then it must have been true...

I've always liked the word wiki.

Plus if you try really hard you can get the word Wii out of it.

  This has gone off topic

Again these yeast extract products took hold of a topic and made it drift of course...   

Oh well, the conversation mentioned in this topic was re-opened so I guess it's not too important to keep this one strictly on topic anymore.

I'm writing this from my grave outside a Tibetan Monastery. Nothing is off-topic. Marmite may be toxic but always topical.
