    Vegemite contains 100% dead yeast, you can’t use as a starter for brewing alcohol.

    Of course it could be used to promote yeast growth but you could do that with pretty much any food containing sugar.

      Can confirm. Have Brit mates that prefer Marmite to, what they call “the inferior copy”, Vegemite. We’re still friends only because I worry they might die next time the temperature hits 30 degrees.
