Have you had Marmite or Bovril or Vegemite?  Or something similar?

Yes.  Every kid who ever grew up in the UK has had Marmite sandwiches.  I have tried Vegemite.  It is similar to Marmite, but don't ever say it is the same.  That would be like saying that Coke and Pepsi taste the same.

I know I have had Bovril as a kid, and I know I didn't like it.

Used to  like marmite until I had it every day  as a drink  while recovering  from  my op. I grew to  hate it . Tried it again and few years  later and still  couldn't  stand  it.
Liked bovril though. 
Never  seen  vegemite I hope it's better  than  Aussie beer and  tv shows!

Yes, I've had all three. No, I don't care for any of them. 

Of the three, Bovril is tolerable much like bullion for broths/soups.  As for the fermented/yeasty Marmite and Vegamite?  Double yuck!

I had Bovril a long time ago, I didn't care for it either.
