Posted: 12 February 2008 at 9:03am |
Which are you? What is your DH? and in what "faith" have you then raised your kids?
THankfully both DH and I are practicing vegemiters so marmite doesnt get a look in here but I was just wondering what everyone else is

DH is a vegemite kid,but will eat marmite. I am a very strong marmite fan, and there is no way I will eat vegemite! We alternate what we give Isla,...will be funny which one she decides she likes best in the future. She has no preferance at the mo!

Me and DH both can't stand vegemite or marmite. In the Uk they run adds about either loving or hating marmite and we are definitely haters. Funnily enough I love the smell though

both in our house  we all eat both of them depending on what its on- white bread or toast = vegemite, vogels = marmite
ETA- I find UK Marmite revolting!  its totally different to the NZ stuff.

DH is a definate BOVRIL fan! The old version was made from beef but because of mad cow disease, it's now a yeast extract. I must admit its nicer than vegemite or marmite. They do a chicken version in the UK too!

Well I was brought up in Oz so i'm a vegemite kid through and through, I even had a t shirt that said I'm a vegemite kid, and I can't stand the smell of marmite.
DH was brought up with Marmite so we do have both in our house but the boys do prefer vegemite - might have something to do with I make their breakfast so they get vegemite from me.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

I've never tried Vegemite  but judging from all the comments above it seems to be the favourite ...maybe I shall invest in a jar when I'm next at the supermarket!
We are all marmite fans here for the time being

We're all Marmite fans here. I grew up on Vegemite but switched when staying with a friend at about age 11. I never looked back!
