Two great tastes that taste great together

Marmiteguinness First, there was peanut butter and chocolate. Now, we’ve got Guinness and Marmite, two acquired tastes that can only improve when mixed together. Marmite is making about 300,000 special-edition jars of this stuff in time for St. Patrick’s Day. Perhaps they can mash up the advertising, too. (“Good things come to those who either love it or hate it”?) And we thought Marmite’s squeezable bottle was cool. From Cool Hunting via YesButNoButYes.

Marmite and Guinness aren't being mixed together... Marmite (and it's cousin from down-under, Vegemite) is a yeast extract that's a by-product of beer production. This Marmite is made from by-product of Guinness production.

BTW, yeast extract is basically MSG paste. Yum!
