What is that weird stuff you British folks always eat--Marmite or something like that?
Australian's eat vegemite - a poor cousin of marmite.

@Grunty,
Don't you dis Vegemite. It is far and away superior to that 2nd rate Brit rubish.

I wouldn't sell them the copyright to my likeness. Big Company thinks they can give me a years supply of spam and a wooden nickel, who do they think they are...the owners of SPAM!!Originally posted by fable
Really, it says it all. Or nearly. I'm surprised they haven't got a statue made out of spam erected to Weasel.

Potted Meat, the survive food of bad camping trips. Throw it in water, run over it with a car, hit a bear with it, the stuff is bullet proof.
Taste wise........well if you are hungry and your camping partner is still breathing, it is food. (If your partner happens to die on the camping trip, I will leave it up to you to decide which way to go).
Eating instructions.......have bread are suffer from something worst than peanutbutter on the top of your mouth.

Vegemite, or rather it's absence, is just one of the many reasons why I find going on holiday to other countries so intensely satisfying.Originally posted by Jace

I was never prone to the taste of Vegemite, but a lot of Australians buy it. And I find that to be quite sickening, it tastes like its smells.Originally posted by Ode to a Grasshopper

We're happy little vegemites,
As bright as bright can be.
We all enjoy our vegemite
For Breakfast, Lunch and Tea.
Because we love our vegemite,
We all adore our vegemite,
It puts a rose on every cheek
Yea vegemite!

Our mummy thinks we're growing stronger every single day,
I'm with Tamerlane. I can't stand the stuff. *Yuk*

In a highly ironic twist of life, it now appears as though three out of four Australians actually dislike vegemite, and the only one who doesn't has been living overseas for the past few years.
The nays have it!

I was actually thinking of the Aeroplane Jelly song while reading your last post. Scary

So why does anybody eat Vegemite? Is it supposed to be incredibly healthy for you? Surely not the taste?
