Vegemite/Marmite: Not the same thing, but similar enough to not deserve separate entries. A thick brown paste made mostly from yeast extract, most commonly spread thinly on toast or sandwiches. The taste is mostly salt plus yeast. Despite the occasional rumor, neither contains any meat.

Viruses: Micro organisms that multiply inside living cells and cause illness.
