i know it's not really what your asking for but it's really easy to find in mallorca. they sell it at carrefour and in the corte ingles (as well as in every supermarket in the "english" areas)

post whether you find it or if not i could send some to you! (free of charge)

cheers!

swf, that's great info.

there are carrefour supermarkets in barcelona too.

carrefour has a section in their markets called "sabores del mundo" (tastes of the world) which is probably where swf saw the marmite.

jodancer, go to http://www.carrefour.es/hipermercados/guia_hipermercados and click on catalu�a. that will show you the ones in and near barcelona.

you should also check el corte ingl�s as swf suggested, they may have it there.

saludos,

Thanks everyone for replying. Unfortunately El Corte Ingles here does not sell it ( I shop there a lot and it's only recently that they sell ready made Coleman's Mustard and not the powder! Carrefour doesn't sell it here either. I saw it in a small shop years ago and I don't remember where. I will let you know when I track it down.
Thanks again
Jo

Do they have Vegemite? I know it goes against being British to say this, but I actually prefer Vegemite.

I saw this plea and done a search on the web �found the following sites. I have no connection with any of them nor have I ever used them but they seem to stock Marmite. This one charge a fee to join !
http://www.expatdirect.co.uk/home.asp
This next one shows Marmite on the home page http://www.britishop.com/default.asp
There are other on line shops offering there services.

You could also try the British Market in Gracia. It is on c. Verdi, 14 near the Verdi Cinema.
