Vegemite is horrible ?

[rrich]

I thought that you might get a laugh about this.

Vegemite on agenda for Gillard and Obama (http://news.yahoo.com/video/us-15749625/vegemite-on-agenda-for-gillard-and-obama-24449012)

I don't know. It doesn't seem very appetizing from the description.

Rich,

It is very much an acquired taste, but being an Aussie, I think it now embedded in our dna.

If you every get a chance to try it don't lay it on thick, an very light smear (almost transparent for first time tasters) is all you will need.

Stuart J.Being a Brit by birth it is Marmite for me -- breakfast many mornings now going on for close to eighty years:

My American born family -- and friends -- think it is disgusting and the few who have actually tried it pronounced it "awful". Like Stuart said, it's in my DNA

Of oourse, as I point out to them, it is the only bad habit I have! :)

BTW, I swap off with Vegemite from time to time.

Oh good taste is its own reward.

Sorry to say I was raised on promite - so I am a weakling when it comes to vegemite.

I know... I'm a disgrace. :C

Some people love it, some people hate it. I for one absolutely HATE IT.

A liking for Vegemite should be part of the test for Oz citizenship

[cookie48]

Nothing beats a bloody good strong Veggie Broth on a cold day to warm your cockles

[fxst]

marmite is only slightly worse than vegimite both should be banned by the food authorities. the best way to deter people from coming to Oz.....make them eat a jar of it.

Vegemite = health food of the nation :2tsup:

Great taste for lunch = Vegemite and Cheese :2tsup:

If you don't like it then your taste would have to be in question :B

Geeeez next there will be an attack on Bundy rum :o

[The Bleeder]

If you haven't put two tablespoons full on a single slice of fresh bread then it's not worth it. :2tsup:

Babies first solid food was usually Farex with a teaspoon of vegemite. :o


Bugger off and leave Bundy alone.....:~:~:~

[Poppa]

I like my vegemite thickly spread. None of that thin scraping for me. When I was a kid I used to eat it out of the jar with a spoon - used to drive Mum spare.

Happy little vegemite me.

[rotten_66]

The only true food of the gods,

Oh I'm a happy little vegemite
As right as right can be...

Try Promite it,s sweeter than Vegemite and it,s great on fresh bread. :):D

[artme]

LOML is Brazillian. Couldn't stand vegemite for many years BUT will now eat straight from the jar. Does this as a demo for our frequent Japanese and French students.

[AlexHW]

I have to say even though i don't particularly like it, with crackers and cheese it's always delicious!

[HazzaB]

Hey you Lot,

If vegemite wasn't any good, why did the Yanks buy it out from under us ??

Most of the Aussies that I know grew up on Vegemite, some people of ethnic origins have also been converted to the flavour of Vegemite, ( I used to swap vegemite sandwiches for Salami and Sundried Tomato sandwiches at school, and they come to me to swap)

I love it when we have a loaf of fresh bread, and I get to have vegemite and Lettuce, or vegemite and cheese, or vegemite and mashed potato, or vegemite and peanut butter, and just plain vegemite. Also on a cold wet day there is nothing better than a big mug of Vegemite soup and a bread roll, Yum :2tsup:

GO VEGEMITE

It's salt laden rubbish.

Tomato and cucumber any day for a sandwich. With any or all of garlic, ginger and pepper. Can almost taste such a sanga as I write.

Gillard has disgraced the nation. Marks to Obama for being polite.

[acmegridley]

I'd agree with that anyone bothered to check the salt content of it!!
12 times daily intake

Bet you cut the crusts off as well!

No way. Gee I love good bread to.

It smells as good as it tastes. Absolute shyte.

Now Kraft crunchie peanut butter. Yummy.

I hate the stuff, and a problem with blood pressure means the salt content knocks it off the list anyway.
