Something I shudder at the thought of is peanut butter & jelly (is that jam??) sandwiches which I hear about.

Vegemite have had 25% reduced salt for a while now, and have just introduced 40% reduced salt. I prefer the standard Vegemite, and plenty of it!

A quote that I saved a while ago:
Jelly is basically fruit juice with gelatin or pectin used to make it solid. Jam is puréed fruit with maybe a bit of gelatin or pectin added for consistency or just relying on natural pectin.
Gelatin is a mix of proteins, generally in a powder that crosslink and make things have a stiffer or gummy texture. It is mostly collagen but definitely has other components.
Pectin is a plant derived polysaccharide that functions like gelatin but generally contains no protein.

OK,
P B & J or P B & Honey
My mother's philosophy was If she cooked it, I would eat it. Sit at the table until it is gone. When she wasn't looking I would scrape it into the garbage disposal. She wasn't the greatest cook in the world either.
About an hour later P B & J would save the day. Just on the bread not a sandwich. No sense in wasting the bread.
On Wednesday the school lunch was P B & Honey. Not great but ice cream for desert saved the day.

Ok, you've convinced me. I'll try it. Ordered from Amazon.
First test will be the on the recommended buttered toast in place of my usual granulated garlic and mushroom bouillon.
If that goes well I'll probably try it on a peanut butter sandwich. Or maybe a grilled peanut butter, bacon, and cheese sandwich.Dave

When we lived in Boston, I had some Vegemite sent from Australia, only to find that the local supermarket in Porter Square stocked it.
Noting than American "cheese" bears little resemblence to the cheeses in other parts of the world, I found that one of my favourites was bread, butter, vegemite and "cheese".

I will admit to having dabbled in the PB&J world once or twice; it's not too bad but not somewhere I go often.
I only really go for three types of sandwich filling:
1. Marmite.
2. Ham, lettuce and tomato with crinkle cut salt & vinegar chips.
3. Pork dripping, oh yeah! The tastiest coronary causer you'll ever come across.Nothing succeeds like a budgie without a beak.

going out total left field but then my tastes have always been different.
Have you every tried vanilla Ice cream and pour chilli sauce over then mix through mates who have scoffed have admitted it was enjoyable...different but not totally offensive.
so planning on home made ice cream and vegemite.. if I survive I'll let you know my thoughts. it will kill the carona virus if nothing else.I would love to grow my own food, but I can not find bacon seeds
