Comments on That's definitely not my Marmite
 
the concept may work for some other products , but here it totally alienates the family and also makes it seem as if its a male- biased product since it has no supporting ads to suggest otherwise.

Yip, strange little man! - Pinki
I fully agree, the new Marmite ad is positively weird, no one should be that obsessed with a pot of Marmite. What is even stranger is the new naked ads by Sanex and Vaseline? Same agency or a serious leak in confidentiality? And all those naked people are also positively weird, perhaps they also like their Marmite!!

my thoughts too - jmarketer
as an aside, i also hate the song playing in the back as the couple go about living their marmite lives...just really aweful and annoying. i also find the thought of a marmite cake disgusting. Just a thought...

It gets worse  by  zimtim
Now the silly prat, who puts his gorgeous girfriend in the back seat of his Mini so that the Marmite jar can ride next to him, takes a jar of Marmite to watch cricket with him.

Oh pah leeeze, will someone at the Marketing company get real and do something about this moronic advertising before we all stop buying your great product because of this stupid advertising
