"I'm a happy little vegemite

As bright as bright can be"

The stuff is ace.

personaly its the best spead lightly over an english muffin. Any australian that dosent like it is a dirty traitor and should be shot out of a cannon into the sun.

Anyone outside australia tried it?

and no, promite and marmite dont count.
 
k I'll bite ...what the hell is vegemite?


promite and marmite?


sounds like fertilizer :angel:
 
hmmmm that did nothing :) except make me hungry

hmmm this is what I got out of your linkage :)

...It can be used in Garlic Beef and Vegetables

..... it can be spread on toast with avocado

...my stomach is rumbling


so is it like honey? Nutella? spam? duck liver pate?


argghhhh you can make indian style chicken wings with it!!! what is it??????

what does it taste like?

Its very unique.

Australians love it... the rest of the world tends to hate it. Mainly because they have no idea how to serve it.
 
or what it is ;)

so is it sweet, salty ...bitter? what would you compare it to?
 
Vegemite... is that like marmite? because I absolutely hate that stuff... even the smell of it makes me bork.

And I didn't know there was such a thing as an 'english muffin' - must be a southern thing.

hmmmm looks at package of Thomas English Muffins wonders where they're from ;)

hehe I thought english muffin was a generic name
 
Salty / bitter ish

Marmite is a similar product. But it tastes foul. yeah the smell of it i hate aswell. Vegemite is different. No smell and tastes mauch better.

english muffins are round bread like things that you split in half and cook in the toster...

Oh no, they arent the ones with sugar on are they?

English muffins seem to exist only outside of England. We have muffins...but...Well they are just muffins. Its like what you put a burger on I suppose but more like normal bread and is just...well...A muffin.

What is so special about a muffin? Its just a piece of bread :O
 
ya it's the same as Canadian bacon ..which is called Peameal bacon in canada but Canadian bacon everywhere else

i dont know. All i know vegemite is that little bit better on a muffin than on a peice of toast (which is still great)

No suger
 
Canadian bacon...heh...We don't have that, or we do...We just call it pork :O Bacon over the Atlantic is just wrong :P In america its all streaky bacon, and in Canada its just like a slab of pork :P
 
Speaking of wierd foods... anyone try black pudding, cut into slices and fried up with your eggs in the morning is great. My friends think its discusting because of what its made of. they wont even try it (exept for 1). Great with tomato sauce (ketchup for the yanks)

ohh and i appreciate the thread jacking ;)
 
I don't really like black pudding...Probably mostly because of what it is, but I don't really like the taste anyway.

Well vegimite is boring :P So you actually have marmite over there then?
 
From the sounds of it...Yes.


It is just congealed pigs blood basically. It happens to look black though.

Sounds like a 'well cooked' version of blood pudding, heh

Im not sure, I get squeemish(sp) just looking at blood that aint my own, let alone eating animal blood... eugh.

yep, tastes like hell

yeah bloodpuding sounds about right...
 
Really though, its no different from eating any other part of an animal...except possibly the testicles. Something about that just seems wrong to me, and dont even go down the road of the female version :x

Although, the head area is something I don't particually like either.
 
gah!!! so farrow you've eaten the head before? what could possibly be edible? ...on second thought dont answer that :)
 
yeah, i wouldnt like eating brain, eye, penis, or testicle or anything gross like that.

i grew up on black pudding so i always used to eat it, no questions. if i hadnt and someeone told me what it is, i wouldnt be so open to it.

and dont even go down the road of the female version

Well by some peoples standards, all of it except the bone really. I guess things like the ears might be a bit chewy.

Burnzie...I can still see that :x

Also, that could be taken in such a terrible way :P

I think I might just have you arrested.

I think I have had vegemite before. My moms had it and she likes it. But I can't remember if I have or not.
 
Yeah I know what you meant...

I believe silver is the way to go in todays world
I could be wrong though...
 
This thread started to make me hungry on the first page with all that talk about muffens :) then made me feel sick with all the talk about eating heads, testicles and dried blood. :x

Anyone love tea cakes? :D
 
I want to try this stuff.. but it's not anywhere around here. Oh well, I'll just have to stick to jam or butter :X
 
Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,
"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."

Damnit, was just about to post those lyrics, bastard

I prefer "Great Southern Land"...

Vegemite's okay, but I prefer Promite BECAUSE Vegemite aggravates my stomach ulcer, and that's not pleasant.

Lamingtons. You can't beat a good lamington. Minus the coconut, of course. Don't know what they were thinking there...

Lamingtons I can agree with, but I can't stand vegemite. Just the smell of it makes me want to berk I'm afraid.

/me applies some zinc to my nose before jumping into the big cannon
