No, the average US citizen at least of my generation did not ever get marmite. i had to look up what the heck it was.
We got an abnormally large amt of shots as kids. But i vaguely remember some gave some potion to children to maintain health. Iron supplements? In an Irish household, of tradition, one got a shot of beer or whiskey if one were sick. Doctors are to be avoided.
I had to look it up, but kids of my generation and many others received Cod Liver Oil in the US. I was not one of em.
So, Marmite, to a born and bred US'er, You sir are an original.
I would hate to have to use Cod Liver Oil as my screen name. But, marmite seems to be a UK thing.
