Hahaha olddude! I can imagine a children's book, 'The Hunting Of The Marmite'! Hiding behind a tree and shooting the jars as they gallop past.

When as a child I first looked at the ingredients listed on the jars, I was surprised to see it was entirely vegetarian. It doesn't contain any meat, just salt, yeast and vegetable extract. Probably not terribly good for the health.

Whereas Bovril HAS got meat in it, as well as the ubiquitous salt, yeast and additives.
