Marmite

Marmite is a British yeast extract with a very intense, salty, and savory umami flavor. It is produced as a by-product of beer brewing, made from leftover brewer's yeast. It is sold in its iconic dark jar and its flavor is so strong that only a small amount is needed. It can be spread on toast or bread, dissolved into soups, sauces, stews, or marinades. It is a rich source of B vitamins and a popular source of umami flavor in vegetarian cooking. Marmite is a cultural icon in Britain, its advertising slogan says you either love it or hate it.
