Marmite back on the menu!

I was Googling 'gluten free Marmite' when I came across this update - admittedly from 2014

coeliac.org.uk/about-us/new...

However, Meridian do a gluten free yeast extract if you want to play it safe:

Not having had any for about three years, and loving the stuff, I'm off to Holland and Barrett for the g.f. version.

Read the ingredients very carefully! I don't trust H&B. :)

Meridian is a different brand. H&B just stock it. I don't trust them either, although I do like their Dr. Organic toiletries.

Initially no .....though it's pretty close

But surprised how quickly I got use to it

I might be gluten free, but for me breakfast has to include toast and "marmite"

Actual marmite severely dries my throat out but Meridian Yeast Extract is absolutely fine, no issues whatsoever. I checked with Meridian direct who confirmed its gluten free. I'm so happy as gone without Marmite for 5 years!!
