LOVE IT OR HATE IT
Marmite is making a huge change to its recipe – but it’s for a good reason
Marmite has launched a reduced salt range for low-salt diet customers - but don't panic because you'll still be able to buy the original pots too
LOVE it or hate it, Marmite has been a classic spread for decades and it seems they are changing with the times.
Unilever, the Martmite maker, has released a reduced salt version of the cupboard staple, to cater for those who are on a low salt diet.

Containing 25 per cent less salt that it's original counterpart, the 250g jar is labelled slightly differently - with a light blue lid - to make customers aware of the difference.
The ''healthier'' Marmite costs £3.09 at all major supermarkets - including Tesco and Sainsbury's.
That's slightly more expensive than the normal £2.40 the original mix is.
Shannon Lennon-Smith, Marmite brand manager at Unilever, said: “Unilever knows that consumer tastes and a desire for wider choice, including lower salt variants, are constantly evolving.
