As a kid back in South Africa, my mum always hauled out the jar of Marmite when anyone had an upset tummy or was spewing She said that Marmite on toast helps settle the tummy etc. So as a result, whilst I now eat Vegimite in Australia, for me, it still has that nasty association will gastro (thanks mum!!).

I am starting to get over it and I have to say that without it, I don't think I would have survived through my morning sickness! So I love it for a different reason, guess

DH (an Aussie) loves it and will have it on toast all the time if given the chance. For some reason, I will always reach for the jam / cheese etc. before thinking of Vegemite. I do, however, really enjoy it with cheese toast or scraped on the toast before I pop a fried egg on

So I suppose I disprove the theory that most non-Australians (though I am a citizen now) don't like it
