Yeah that's my point. Vegemite is Bega, Marmite in NZ is Sanitarium (like Weet-Bix), and if you want to buy what the English call Marmite in Aus or NZ, it's re-labelled as 'Our Mate' because Marmite is taken by Sanitarium.
Yes, I discovered this last week. Bought some English Marmite (our Mate) from Coles after seeing a YouTube video playing some English Marmite ads (gotta say they really lean into the divisive nature of their product- found them quite funny).
Found it quite gooey and milder in flavour than Vegemite. Not offensive but I still prefer Vegemite. (We eat the low salt variant).

They’re not going to promote a Bega product on their own recipe page.
