Taupo seems to be short of Marmite. Is this just an us problem?

I heap scorn upon your Marmite troubles!

Bah!

The great Vegemite civilization welcomes refugees from the barbarian lands.

Your puritanical religion will not sway those who are dedicated to the glory and true path of Marmite.

Be gone opportunistic usurper.

Our household tends to worship a veritable pantheon.

UK Marmite, NZ Marmite, Vegemite, Promite & Bovril. All always in stock.

Steady on mate. I live the UK and because UK Marmite is All Wrong, I've been forced to fall back on Strayan Vegemite. Lately though that lifeline seems to be fraying - in my current jar the texture is a little sloppy, the flavour not quite up there.

So, what's going on in "the great Vegemite civilization"? Was this just a rogue jar? Or is this the start of enshitification?
