In which country did the breakfast spread Marmite originate?

Marmite originated in England as a yeast-extract breakfast spread.

The product was developed in the late nineteenth century after German scientists showed that yeast could be used to make a nutritious extract. The Marmite Food Extract Company began producing it in Burton upon Trent, England, in 1902.

Marmite is made from yeast extract, a concentrated by-product of brewing, and is known for its dark color and intensely savory flavor. It is commonly spread thinly on toast, often with butter underneath.

Marmite is sometimes confused with Australia’s Vegemite because both are yeast-based spreads. They are separate products with different histories and recipes. Marmite’s distinctive branding and slogan helped make it an enduring part of British food culture.
