You don't understand.
	I am informed by a usually reliable source (who has lived in both
hemispheres) that the product sold as Marmite in the antipodes is NOT the
same as that produced in Britain and sold there and here.  It is a distorted
variant for those poor Australians who could not handle the real Marmite.
This explains any disparaging comparisons of Marmite against Vegemite.
It is not the real stuff.

and did not try antipodean Marmite.  But I did try antipodean Special K, and
found that it was much more like corn flakes than like real Special K.  Honest.
So I am inclined to believe that this is the truth.)
