The taste is going to be far too strong if you eat it alone, but I've heard it's nice on toast or with other things.

That said, I still didn't like it.

Shock That's what I do with Vegemite!

Damn it now I'm hungry I need to go make a slice of toast with a really thick layer of Vegemite.
Shock I AM OUT OF VEGEMITE! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Looks like I'm going down to the store to buy some then. DAMN IT!

We did a comedy sketch in one of our home videos.

One guy bets another guy 5p he can't eat a whole tub of marmite. The guy takes on the bet, and eats the whole tub in front of him. The first guy then says he was only joking, won't pay the 5p, and instead says he owes him a jar of marmite now.

Shame I don't have those videos anymore. Of course we used a cut, he didn't actually eat the whole tub on camera.

Guys, you've convinced me. Marmite is indeed shit and tastes like poisonous anal secretions. That's why they make so much of it, for people not to buy it. Makes total sense now.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Vegemite and Marmite
May 9, 2015 at 11:41 am (This post was last modified: May 9, 2015 at 12:01 pm by KUSA.)
Today I made a Vegemite egg sandwich. I don't know why I like this stuff but it is good. The Vegemite adds a rich flavor to food. I'm afraid this tiny jar is going to go fast. That's a bummer because I can't just run out and get more.

Once I get over the fascination of the Vegemite I'll start trying the Marmite out more.
During this mite adventure I can't seem to stop singing this song. It's driving my family nuts.

Well, now I've ordered some Vegemite and Tim Tams from an import store in Cincinnati, I hope you're all happy. Tongue

I'll be sharing the former, and then the latter, with my American in-laws, so I'm sure those reactions will be fun. Wink

It seems to me that vegemite is just pimento spread and the tune came out in 1981 or '82, without video in the midst of the Reaganomic intellectual desert then newly populated by Yuppies. The band was from down under, but they aimed directly at the U.S. market.

Why don't some of you folks down under take a pic of your favorite Vegemite sandwich or dish and post it here. I've been eating this stuff about three times a day and am interested in how you do it.
