Well, the second syllable's vowel is a schwa--which means it can run

Marmite is a black tarry yeast extract used to encourage New Zealand children
to grow large and strong.  The usual method is to feed it to them on toast,
resulting in them growing very quickly, so that they might become big and
strong enough to stop their parents from doing this.      --Rupert Boleyn
