Marmite popcorn: the Joe & Seph's bag, what it tastes like, and how to make a better version at home
Joe & Seph's, the gourmet popcorn people based in north London, have done a deal with Unilever Food Solutions UK to produce the first officially licensed Marmite popcorn.
Marmite toasties are on the autumn menu boards
According to the latest Bakery Info roundup, Caffè Nero, Costa, M&S Café, Pret and Starbucks are all running Marmite-based toasties this autumn. Not as a fringe special at one branch, but as proper autumn menu items printed on the boards.

Tesco are now stocking Marmite-glazed roast potatoes, as a snack, in a 350g bag, for £3.50. Whatever next.
Marmite in the comfort-food repertoire, properly
