Vegemite: banned in the U.S.A.

Being a Snu article, I'm suprised theres no comments and "vote now" on that article, with 675654534232 frothing old aussies saying "HANDS OFF A TRADITION YOU FILTHY SEPTICS"

otm re melted butter Trayce. For a while I was going no butter, just 'mite. I was such a fool

this is str8 bullshit and i look forward to its complete failure

it mite go well in cheesymite scroll bullshit tho

mmmm

are u frontin on cheesymite scrolls wilter?? good god

The new Vegemite won't be on the supermarket shelves until July 5 with the launch being forced on Kraft after the existence of the product became public.

are they worried people will download it from rapidshare or something

hahahaha

co-worker just told me while waiting for the coffee to brew that her son eats a vegemite sandwich every day at school, BUT in a bizarre twist he will only eat it if the two slices of bread are spread half with vegemite and half butter, then folded individually in a triangle shape. it's not even a sandwich at all if you ask me!!

kids are fuckin weird sometimes, for serious

If they called this shit Cheesymite and made it clear it is what it is - vegemite flavoured Kraft Cheese Spread - then all well and good. Otherwise blurgh.

lolstralians

;__;

H i do <3 the scrolls!

sometimes they're just not vegemitey enuff tho.

trayce i reckon bakers delight might have a few words to say on your naming plan there

Yeah well they can shove it.

Creamymite then.

it might indeed

Ewww.

we got some vegemite from family friends in australia.

should i try this shit or is it super duper grossville?

there is only one way to find out...rub it all over a brown banana and scarf it.

i would hate to ruin the shock surprise

I think it is really delicious & I eat it lots, but most people's first exposure to it results in screams of "gaaah what the fuck"

basically if you're not the sort of eater who on tasting something weird goes "people like this? I wonder if I ate more if I'd start to like it too" then you should give it a pass

pro tip: the more you slather onto a piece of bread the better it tastes

see now if you are hoping to enjoy it I would say "start with a very thin coating" but I think jjjusten, not to cast aspersions, does not have the noblest of intentions here

Agreed. Also, works better on toast than bread. Grainy bread is better than white, with a touch of melting butter, a dabbed spread of vegemite. No, fuck it, white is great too.

pro tip: if i like you and give you a "pro tip", i am probably trying to ruin your day for my own amusement

lord forgive me
the vegemite got me not knowin' how to act

i did a taste test on this + other weirdo aussie/NZ/britisher spreads here somewhere but i cant remember the thread title. i also had my poor unfortunate dog undergo the same trials.

fyi:

this looks to be "kids" vegemite or something, it has a cartoon kangaroo on it, don't know if that means its a slightly different version of vegemite or not

psst MARMITE RULZ AND VEGEMITE SUX SHIT

note thread title is v incorrect

what is marmite???

jjusten:

is vegemite basically australian lutefisk?

hahahahahahaha

i have to think about that but uh maybe. pretty sure im still down with the bovril option above the others tbh.

does this stuff ever spoil? because i think i still have all three somewhere in my cupboard

the other thread title was a big fat lie.

marmite precedes vegemite historically I think but an Aussie told me marmite was a "pale English imitation" and he said it with such conviction that I agree no matter what the facts of the matter are

protip: use a holepunch and punch a hole in a brown banana. squeeze out all the contents. using a syringe, inject the same brown banana with vegemite. eat said banana w/o peeling.

xposts otm: best on toast with melted butter, teeny tiny scrape of vegemite. White bread is kind of a must.

Salada worms are awesome too (too much vegemite in this picture imo)

Marmite = ass

uh I'm pretty sure that cracker is infected.

ahhhhhfghghghhhhh

lolll

;_;

I used to love making the vegemite/butter wormies with my saladas or .. those other crackers I forget the name of wtf is wrong with me.

Also I <3 JD even more now because he reps for the Vegemite.

Marmite is awesome, you fools. But I fear this is an argument that may cause permanent war between Australia and the UK.

guys, they're all terrible

no no no...j0hn sez vegemite roolz. case closed.

'zactly.

look you guys let me break it down for you what quality snacking is all about. get some crackers. then get you some nice sharp cheddar cheese. slice the cheese into cracker-sized pieces. spread vegemite on one cracker, place slice of cheese atop vegemite, top with other cracker to form the immortal cheddar cracker vegemite sandwich of destiny. snack and be happy. have a cooper's if you are still thin enough to be drinking beer and have a club soda if you have had to bid a sad farewell to beers.

^^^ Would definitely agree if Vege- was replaced with Mar-.

Although if your waistline can't take beers I'm not sure what it's doing with cheddar.
