Do you love it, or hate it?
Marmite was invented in the late 19th century by German scientist Justus von Liebig.
The scientist discovered that brewer's yeast (a byproduct of the brewing process) could be concentrated, bottled and eaten.
The product is named after a 'marmite' - a French earthenware pot.
The pot is depicted on jars of British Marmite.
British Marmite was initially supplied in earthenware pots.
In the 1920s it changed to glass jars of approximately the same shape as the pots.
There are two versions of Marmite - a British version, and New Zealand version.
This is a tattoo of the New Zealand jar.
