don’t.
and i am australian.
Vegemite is not yeast poop. Alcohol is yeast poop. Vegemite is the yeast carcass after the alcohol has been removed.
…
The suspense is killing me 
LOL at Fred Walker, I’d been to the site recently and not noticed that.
Vegemite - first time I tried it at a Brit’s house in Berlin, I thought it was some kind of joke - it was exactly what I imagined fluid in a 1965 Chevy crankcase would taste like - but just a little worse.
That said, as an American who loves peanut butter - if I had a dollar for every German I know who likes peanut butter, I couldn’t buy a newpaper.
As one German friend described my imported, coveted jar of Skippy Super Crunch, “It looks like the deposit in a diaper.”
So - Vegemite fans - knock yourself out. Just do it in the next room with the window open…
I mentioned this in another thread a year or two ago, but when I went to Fiji on my honeymoon, I noticed that the resort’s breakfast buffet offered vegemite out of consideration for all the Australian guests. Hmmm, I said, might as well be worth a try. I watched an Aussie at another table to see how it was done: spread thinly on toast. Okay, got it. Take a bite— and suddenly I feel as though I’ve stuck my tongue up a dog’s asshole. I actually stopped chewing and spit the wad out onto the plate. My wife said: “It tastes bad?” I look up at her with watery eyes, and she laughs at me. Goodness, but I do love her so.
If you enjoy it, you can keep it. No more for me.
Well now I HAVE to try it just so’s I’ll know.
umm… Merkins?? Where would I find it in the grocery store?
You don’t eat vegemite and you have the audacity to call yourself Australian?
Shame. Shame. Shame.
As I recall, the exact expression used by Cervaise that fateful morning involved a dog’s salty asshole.
While it is very true that I laughed at his misery, it is also true that I warned him not to do it, cringed while he was doing it, and gagged when I smelled it after he opened the package. My granny is British and my Mom spent several formative childhood years in Britan, so I had seen that nasty stuff before.
And let me just say, that after a hard night on the booze, having a few teaspoons of vegemite straight up before going to bed is one of the best hangover preventatives out there!!

I spent the first 5 years of my life in New Zealand. We would often have marmite and potato chip sandwiches. Since my parents are Canadian, we would also eat peanut butter and jam sandwiches, for this, the other kids thought we were crazy.
In Canada now (or at least Halifax which is fairly British), you can get vegemite and marmite at the local grocery stores. After a little while, I have reaquired the taste. I spread it on all sorts of stuff now. One of these days, I will have to invite some people over for a blindfold vegemite/marmite taste test cause they are different right?
(emphasis mine)
That makes it even worse.
Marmite is smother and a bit stronger. Vegamite is almost kind of gritty and not as gooey textured.
Yeah, I like both. My morning breakfast is toast and marmite, coffee, and a smoke. My favorite time of the day.
I’ve noticed people who don’t like it generally have bland taste in food. 
And you cant do this with Vegemite.
Anyone here had twiglets?
You never know, it might work - has anyone on this board actually ever tried beating vegemite? if so… WHY? What is wrong with you?
Mesopotamis, what are twiglets?
The two most popular items at our high school canteen were:
- half a bread roll, spread with Vegemite, topped with cheese and tomato sauce and grilled
- a whole bread roll, sliced in half, spread with Vegemite and butter, and then stuffed with a sausage roll.
YUM. Those were the days…
:eek:
:: runs screaming from thread ::
Whoa…
I’m with you Narrad, I’ll stick with dead horse on mine 
Another Australian here who doesn’t like vegemite. Or peanut butter. Or Tim Tams (If the vegemite doesn’t get my citizenship revoked, not liking TimTams will) 
: hiding before the Aussie contingent finds me and beats me up :
Right, that’s it. Nurse, quick bring the screens.
