From boiled skin and bones to brewer's slurry, some of our most delicious ingredients come from ignoble places. What do marmite, gelatin, and molasses all have in common?

They're all foods that begin as byproducts of some other food - in this case, beer, meat, and sugar. You might not think of cattle while eating jelly or yeast while spreading Marmite on your toast, but rest assured, without one, you would not have the other.
