Vegemite the untold story
So for you folks who are virgins to vegemite this linky-poo is for you. Click here to read about this strange Australian food spread.
As for the vegemite concept, I don't get it. I don't like it. But the damn product keeps coming up in my life thanks to the Men at Work song. And if you have to ask who Men at Work is you are screwed.. you'll never understand why I brought it up vegemite in my last post. Let it go. You will never be blessed.
For all my mates down under, I have tried the stuff and must say, whoa. Eeeew. I have seen some strange stuff spread on bread, but this takes the cake. Why would you put something so strange into your body on a regular basis?
Whateve. I am hungry, I think I will go have some raw, uncooked fish, because THAT is normal.

HA! when i read vegemite in the last post, i got the Men At Work song stuck in my head.
FUCKING spammers they should all rot in HELL!
I've never had vegemite. I don't know what it really is. But it has the word 'mite' in it. So, there's that...
"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."
You seriously need to get that hubby of yours to the sushi bar and get that fixation under control. : )
Nice spam. Kinda reminds me of vegemite. Men at Work. Loved 'em. Good luck on the sushi.
Been trying to get Down Under from iTunes for year & they don't have it. Bitches!
Firstly, I have not heard of this one! Clicked over & read the site, but I will take your word for it.
I will just stick with sushi myself thank you! Appreciate the heads UP though!
I read the hows, the whys, the where it came froms, the egg cup story...and I still have no clue what the hell vegemite is. A spread, yes, but what's it taste like?
I'm seeing recipes for garlic concoctions...LOL
I'll stick with Brummel and Brown, thanks...
OK...that's it Yanks...dis means WAR!!!
You have the gosh darned cheek (grin) to promote crap like "peanut butter and jelly sandwiches", your beer (until the invention of some local micro-breweries) wouldn't get a squirrel pissed, let alone a human being.
And now...now...(choke) you take the piss out of VEGEMITE!!!????
It's the quintessential essence of Australiana!
It's what we scoff when we're backpacking around the world.
Our mothers feed it to us when we're 1 yrs old (plus you can lubricate joints of 4 wheel drives).
Alright, serious bit...
First of all America, it's very powerful stuff. Hence, you spread it THIN!!!
We here stories down here of Yanks trying to eat it like peanut butter??? Nope, that way Anna dear you get a burnty toungue.
My two favourites are Vegemite on Toast...spread thin of course.
Or vegemite and cheese sandwiches (dunked into spicy tomatoe soup).
Ohhhh and it is THEEEEE best hangover prevention cure Anna 'cos it's almost pure vitamin B and folate.
Hence, eat a teaspoon of vegemite, scoff a Red capsicum (40 times the Vit C of an Orange) plus a pint of water.
NO HANGOVER!!
Ahhh me, the things we learn as we get older.
Now be nice America, or our loony 1950's obsessed right wing geriatric Prime Minister will stop being friends with your ooohhh so sensible ('Lets have a crusade' 'there's no such thing as global warming, where's that glacier gone Condalisa?? Thanks Bob from Exxon for the campaign contribution, now you go strip mine Alska now...you here!) President.
Oohh Dear Darius.... I had been quietly waiting until you read my post. I KNEW you would have a few bits to say in defense of Ye' ol Vegemite. Muhuhahaha!
It's cool. I get you, it's an acquired taste and it does double as a mechanical lubricant, which peanut butter doesn't have going for it.
Fair is fair - I each raw fish, like that's appetizing for most people. Pretty creepy I know.
But for the record, I hate beer, I never really liked peanut butter, and vegemite is still kinda weird, spread thin or not. But I will keep a jar on hand if it is THAT good on hangovers...never say no to a good hangover cure.
:)
Vegemite (or my favourite, Marmite) is marvellous. You Northern Hemisphere types don't know what you are missing.
Now, why the hell is American cheese orange?
