Vegemite

[StevieJS]

This is vegemite, the greatest stuff on the planet.

22.7 million jars of Vegemite are manufactured in Australia every year - that's 235 jars per minute.

30 jars are sold in Australia for every one exported.

Vegemite is in nine out of ten pantries in Australia.

I love vegemite !!!!!

I didn't hate it ~ but I definetly didn't love it!! I wouldn't keep it in my pantry ~ unless you were planning on a visit ... then it would be there just for you !!

I heard all about how wonderful vegemite was before I went to Australia...
and OMG (I'm sorry Stevie...) but I thought that I would puke after I took a bite!!!
I had it on toast... is that typical? It just has a distinctively icky taste to me.
But... even though I didn't like it, I still had to bring a jar home to the states. Just because.

Ok, normally you just spread it on Toast or nice thick crusty fresh bread. (Don't overdo it though, you don't need much)

Here's a link to a couple of simple recipes

gotta tell ya stevie, it must be an acquired taste because i was not at all impressed with the stuff during my trip to Australia several years ago.

I think Susan's experience of almost puking seals the deal for me. I'll pass on the Vegemite

I dunno, I can think of a couple of things that made me gag the first time or two and I still "consume" them to this day.
