Spread, 290g

Better thank Vegamite and Marmite. Promite is a more pleasant, milder on saltiness version. Like how you put butter first to kind of cut that flavor a bit, with Promite the flavor profile is already there.

This came well-packaged and secure in a sleeve, in a snug box within the Amazon box. I first tried it at the recommendation of a Tasmanian friend, and I started putting it on and in EVERYTHING. I use it in soup or with hot water AS soup for a lovely umami bomb. Bread and butter, of course. In ramen. With cookies or "biscuits" as a weird but tasty sweet-and-savory combo. I LOVE the smooth, spreadable, not-too-sticky texture and find it pleasanter than Vegemite and FAR better than Marmite in both flavor and texture. I'm definitely in a Where-Have-You-Been-All-My-Life relationship with Promite.

It's easily spreadable like Vegemite and has a slightly softer flavor. I'm American and I've had Marmite and Vegemite. I prefer Marmite but this is also very good. You could probably put this in your Ramen or miso. Good on toast. Probably good on a buttery cracker.

My personal preference is the for original Marmite: salty and yeasty flavor. When I opened the Promite lid there was already a difference in the appearance, I.e., less stiff and smoother, and some of the product was on the underside of the lid. I scooped the residue up and licked the spatula. Initially, I enjoyed the texture and flavor. But a few minutes later I sensed a strange feeling on my teeth and flavor (to me unpleasant) in my mouth. I have had those sensations before after consuming some high fructose corn syrup sweetened foods. So, I checked the label. Sugar = sucrose (covalent bond between fructose and glucose), which doesn’t bother me, but I was surprised that the glucose syrup was giving me a fructose corn syrup reaction. For me, Marmite is for plain toast with watercress or arugula. I will have to figure out how to use the Promite where other ingredients can “cover” for the syrup.

I used to enjoy Vegemite on occasion, but I'll never go back to it now. Promite is milder and less salty, and it has a creamier, smoother consistency (making it much easier to spread on toast). The only downside is that I use a lot more Promite on each slice of toast, because it's less concentrated – and Promite is pretty expensive. I never liked Marmite. So of the three yeast-based spreads, Promite is the best, in my view.

If you are Australian or just love promite then this product is for you. Good size jar to last my family a good amount of time. You either like it or you don’t. So my review is to say being that this product is difficult to get in the US so it is well worth the money.

Promite is milder than Vegemite in that it is less salty and a smoother flavor. You have to grow up in Australia to think Vegemite is King. I remember my mother putting Vegemite on our pacifiers during teething so yes, it's a hometown treat. Having said that, the secret for the newcomers, put it on bread or toast with butter and only a thin coat of Promite - you should be able to see the bread underneath through the spread. Don't have big goobies of it otherwise you will not return for a second taste. Hang in there folks and you will get to find that Promite is good with so many things and can be used in so many recipes.

I've been eating Marmite and Vegemite for a bit, and thought I'd try this. I like the taste of Marmite better than Vegemite, but this is the best of the three. It has much less of a bitter taste, and is less of an 'acquired taste' than the other two. My kids actually liked this one, but won't go near the other two. The texture is kind of between the texture of Marmite and Vegemite - Marmite being very sticky like very thick honey, Vegemite being much more firm, like spreadable butter. Overall, I really like Promite.
