Geoff:
Nothing. There is nothing questionable, unsavoury, rude or 
fattening about what I have commented on - except that 
Marmite could be called savoury.

Refer back to my last post and I gave a URL

www.marmite.co.uk 

I've since discovered that

www.marmite.com is also valid.

I think you must be using an AU version of Google designed for aliens. :-)

Go to Google. Just type "marmite" in, don't worry about drop-down
 options, hit "Search" and you'll get a whole screenful of links including 
an article in Wikipedia.

Take a long deep breath, go and make some hot chocolate and 
Marmite soldiers. Good therapy.
