Marmite Defence League raises concerns over Sajid Javid ‘marmite’ campaign video
The Marmite Defence League has raised serious concerns about a short campaign video posted on social media by one of the contenders for the Tory Party leadership Sajid Javid.
Around 10 seconds into the video Javid is shown squeezing some marmite from a plastic tub on to some toast.
The Marmite Defence League believes there is a serious danger of marmite being brought into disrepute if it becomes associated with a particular politician, perhaps particularly a Tory one.
MDL Spokeperson Keith Flett said, it’s true that marmite is a ‘which side are you on’ type product but not we think a which side are you on in the Tory leadership election.

Where we stand on Marmite
Marmite is a natural product deriving from brewer’s yeast. It is historically a by-product of brewing
It was ‘invented’ by a German scientist Justus von Liebig
Originally Marmite was derived from the Bass brewery in Burton on Trent.
Marmite is salty but also has some health enhancing elements to it including vitamins.
Its recent marketing focuses on a ‘love it or hate it’ element to Marmite, and it is a ‘which side are you on’ food.
