It will launch online at Ocado on March 25, before retailing in Sainsbury’s from April 7, then rolling out to all leading nationwide retailers. The RRP is £2.50.

“The British public asked, and we listened,” Camilla Williamson, Brand Manager at Marmite, said in a statement sent to Plant Based News.

“It’s the most exciting product launch since the conception of the brand in 1902, and we’re confident that the nation is going to love it. They ain’t tasted nuttin yet.”
