(Australian PM) Albanese said: "I stand with the Aussie café owner."

"I can confirm here today that I am pro-Vegemite. I actually put a lot of Vegemite on my toast when I eat bread," he said.

"It's a good thing. I did hear the report. It's rather odd they're allowing Marmite, which frankly, is rubbish. Let's be clear: I'm pro-Vegemite, anti-Marmite. That's my position."

Pfffft Marmite is clearly superior ;)

The only thing Marmite is superior in is being sickenly sugary.

Sugary is the last word I would think of to describe Marmite but I am also English so my taste buds are probably the least refined in the known universe.....

For me they taste very similar but the Vegemite texture is just so wrong, give me goopy tar any day of the week :p

Marmite has the textured of blended diarrhoea.

If you are shitting out anything of that consistency then I think you should see a doctor.....
