It’s not well known but Marmite did originally feature in the New Testament. At the famed feeding of the 5000. The original version said that the only food they had was 5 loaves, two fishes and a family jar of marmite. This was left out of the King James version by someone who couldn’t believe that any of the 5000 would have eaten it.

From the Apocrypha Tobit 5:2

2:The day would have passed without rancour
As the sermon unfolded to plan
But then Jesus brought out the marmite
And all of the trouble began.

3: ‘It’s the food of the gods’ said some Philistine sods
And the Israelites started to split.
For half of them thought it was manna
And the other half thought it was sh*t!
