Vegemite Yeast Extract 220g is Australia's most iconic savory spread — a dark, intensely umami paste made from brewer's yeast extract that has been a breakfast staple Down Under for over a century. Packed with B vitamins, it delivers a bold, salty depth of flavor unlike anything else on the shelf.

Australia's Iconic Savory Spread

• 220g jar — the classic Vegemite quantity beloved worldwide
• Rich in B vitamins including B1, B2, B3, and folate
• Intensely savory umami flavor — a little goes a long way

How to Use

Spread very thinly on warm buttered toast for the classic Vegemite experience — use sparingly as its flavor is intense. Dissolve a small amount in hot water as a savory broth. Add to soups, stews, and gravies for a deep umami boost. Works beautifully as a flavoring agent in baked goods and savory sauces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Vegemite considered an acquired taste? Its intense saltiness and strong yeasty umami flavor is unlike familiar spreads. The key is to use a very thin scraping on well-buttered toast — most first-timers use far too much.

Is Vegemite the same as Marmite? Both are yeast extracts, but they have distinctly different flavor profiles. Vegemite is richer, saltier, and less sweet than British Marmite.

Is it suitable for vegans? Yes — Vegemite is vegan and vegetarian friendly with no animal-derived ingredients.
