Vegemite tastes GOOD dammit!

It's funny... I saw this online article about a scientist-type guy who did stupid "experiments" for a laugh (kinda like TheSpark), and he decided to eat a Vegemite sandwich as an aside to one of his experiments. Problem was, he used the "Happy Little Vegemites" ad as his point of reference, and lathered the shit on like it was the Nutella on those gay Nutella ads. When Vegemite is used like that, sure it tastes like ass that came from the fiery pits of hell. But a modest touch of Vegemite on some toast tastes completely awesome.

So anyway, I guess he's been permanently put off Vegemite, and probably doesn't have many taste buds left anyway.

Vegemite is interesting. It tastes like crap, yet everyone likes it. I myself love it, but I still think, in reality, it tastes pretty bad. It's probably because most people were brought up on it. Either way, it kicks the shit out of Promite and all other poser mites.

If I'm ever in MacDonalds around breakfast time, I grab a handful of vegemite sachets, take them home, pack them into a CD postage case, and send them to some internet friends who have never had it.

Their responses are generally marvelous, centering around "you eat this crap ?"
 
Plattopus is right though. The spreading of Vegemite, and indeed, the correct ratio of vegemite to butter, is an artform honed by years and years of practice.

Aye! :headbang:
 
Very correct on the science.

First you have your parents making it the way that they want it.
Then you go through the "heaps of margarine, smear of vegemite mixed in" phase.
Primary school lunches are cheese(kraft) and vegemite or lettuce and vegemite sandwiches.
A little stronger as you age.

'till you hit your 30's, and the dream lunch is a cheese(aged tasty) and vegemite sandwich (no butter), that you put a handful of hot chips with chicken salt in about 5 minutes before eating.

Warning...do not partake in the latter too frequently, as I've no doubt that they aren't that good for you, in spite of the vitamin B
